Make It Monday #52 With The Memory Nest

Hello everyone! Happy Monday to you! It truly is a happy Monday for me - no school for the boys today, so that means a nice relaxing day at home for me!

We have a brand new sketch, courtesy of Katie, over on The Memory Nest blog today. 



When I saw this photo of Abby and Ada on Facebook, I knew I would be making a layout of it. You can just see so much love on both of their faces! Abby said she tried to get Ada to look at the camera, but she just kept looking at her, so she just took the photo like that. I think it is perfect just like this!

This was such a fun sketch to work with! I was going through my 6x6 paper pads because I knew I wanted to use a whole 6x6 sheet behind the photo. When I found the We R Memory Keepers Chalkboard 6x6 pad, my search was over! I just love the beautiful, soft colors, and I thought they would be perfect for a girly page about my two favorite girls!

Check out The Memory Nest to see the projects from the rest of the team. You have until the end of the month to play along with both of our sketch challenges. If you play along and link up over on the blog, you are entered to win a $10 gift certificate from The Memory Nest.

Thanks so much for stopping by and I will be back soon with another project to share!
