First Snow Day 2014 (Lets Get Sketchy)

Happy Wednesday here in NZ! This week is Team B's turn for reveal over at Lets Get Sketchy and even though I'm in Team A I loved the sketch so much I had to play along.  It helps with killing my July Hip kit too!

I decided to scrap this photo of my older two in the first snow day of winter.  Here in Queenstown a "Snow Day" means a huge snow fall that closes schools because there is so much snow on the roads that the buses can't operate.  Brielle was only about 5 weeks old on this day in May and I remember being so very tired.


I finally made a layout without black India ink!


I cut some leaves with my Cuttlebug for another project and had these left over to use up.


I love how this clutter turned out!


And here is the sketch by Laura Whitaker:



Thanks for looking!
