"SPRING"

This card just says it all for me!  I have been ready for Spring for several months now, so I knew this weeks card needed to be something pretty with flowers and of course something pink.

I've also been so busy lately that I forgot to share some wonderful news with all of you.  I was presented with a wonderful offer from Bo Bunny to be featured on their blog for part of their "Bo Bunny Fan Spotlight" article.  What an honor it was to be featured on one of my favorite manufactures blog.

Thank you Bo Bunny for the wonderful opportunity! 

Sketches for All Ages

This week over at Sketch Support, we had a special feature called "Sketches for All Ages" with some easy steps on how to scrapbook with your kids.  I was on vacation with my family and forgot to send my layout in.  Oops!

So, today I am going to share with you the layout that my son, Landon, age 4, has put together.  I went ahead and cut all of the strips and the background piece of paper out for him and with a little direction (I used a pencil to mark where the paper should be placed) this is what he came up with.  He did a great job!!!

Too much!

The cutter (trimmer)

What is your favorite thing about this sketch? 
It showed me where to put my stickers

If you could have your mom make a page about anything what would it be? 
All of my Monster Trucks

What is your best tip for other scrapbookers? 
It's a secret! Only mommy can know.

This was the first time I had ever let Landon actually scrapbook a page with pictures and a sketch.  Usually, I just give him some paper and cut a few things out with my Cricut and let him create his own project. 

Below are a few pictures of him creating his layout. 

This picture (below) cracks me up because Landon was repositioning the strip because it wasn't straight.  I think maybe he has watched me scrapbook one too many times.
