Hello, hello! Happy Friday to you! It's been a month since I last posted anything here on my blog... and it's been even longer since I posted anything to Instagram. I am hoping that I can get back into the swing of things now that summer is winding down.
It's time for the mid-month throwback sketch challenge at Sketch N Scrap. Here is a look a the selection of sketches we have to choose from:
I chose to use Sketch #102 for my layout:
For this layout, I have used Echo Park's 'A Slice of Summer' collection. I love the bright summery colors in this collection. They just make me happy!
The photo is of me, Abby, and Ada, all trying a pineapple whip for the first time. When we went to Branson with my sister and Dad, we stopped by Springfield on the way home so Dad could pick up a few things. When he was done shopping, he treated us all to a pineapple whip. Abby and I tried the original pineapple whip, while Ada had the strawberry kiwi flavor. It was hot, but breezy, and the perfect day to sit outside in the shade and enjoy a sweet treat.
I'm not sure how we've never tried one of these tasty treats. Maybe because they aren't easily accessible to us. Whatever the case, we all thought they were delicious! Maybe we'll have another the next time we go to Springfield.
Here are a couple of close-ups:
I was so happy to see a pineapple and a strawberry in the sticker book for this collection. I thought they were the perfect embellishments for this layout.
I love these doily die-cuts! I am so glad I have the metal die to make them any time I want. This one was the perfect base for my title.
Head on over to Sketch N Scrap to see the beautiful layouts from the rest of the design team. I hope you have some time to play along with us this month!
Thanks so much for stopping by my blog today. Hopefully, I will be posting a little more regularly on here and on Instagram.
