Time to relax

So the busy week is done. I did fit some scrapping in, but in bits and pieces: selecting products one day, trimming and laying it all out, adhering/unadhering, and adding and subtracting elements. Here's what I did:

This one was for Inspiration Defined at BPS. I took inspiration from a favorite wall in my house:

Next time I use this design, I'll print smaller photos to make it really dramatic.

This next one I took inspiration from the picture at the upper left of the wall. I added a few embellishments.

Then I did this one for a sketch challenge (Sadly, I made this one for my father-in-law's birthday next week, but I selfishly can't give it up. I'm making him another one. The guilt!):

Here's the sketch:

Finally, this layout celebrates my son's first day at school this year. I used some scraps. The stars are a stamped image I punched out and adhered with brads.

So for tonight, to get ready for a weekend crop and for LOAD, I will finish editing October and November photos and send them in for printing.

ETA: The sketch comes from Studio Calico. They post a new sketch every Sunday for a challenge and a GC. I did use their January kit for the page.
