Hi there!

Here's the latest sketch at Let's Capture These Sketches! It's a sketch from Tara Thynne and the challenge is to make something homemade on your page or incorporate some other craft on your layout (origami, crochet, sewing, etc.)



Here's my page. It's my brother and I on Christmas Eve (we always open presents at midnight on Christmas Eve in my family) in 1973 and 2009. Time sure does fly!



I rotated the sketch to fit my landscape photos. I unfortunately forgot to incorporate something handmade on my page... I had an idea when I started the layout, then kind of went in a different direction and forgot about the challenge until my page was all finished! My bad!

I used stamps from our sponsor this month, myStamp BOX. Complete the sketch for your chance to win some stamps of your own! Don't forget to link up your creation here on the blog!


I'll be taking a step back from my DT's for a while. This is my last layout with Let's Capture These Sketches. I'm done with Sketchabilities, and I have just one last reveal with Sassy Lil' Sketches. Although I absolutely loved being on those DT's, I just need to spend a bit less time on the internet for a while and more time for other things in my life. I'll still be scrapping hopefully, but just not on a schedule. I sure hope you'll keep stopping by when I post once in a while!

Happy scrapping and Happy Holidays!

And here's Day 5, the final day!



And my finished LO. It's about what has become a tradition in my family on Christmas Eve. We take a series of pictures in front of the tree, photographing every combination possible with each family member, even my cats get in on it! The stamps on the left are from our sponsor, MyStamp BOX. Go check them out!

Yep! It's true! The Sassy Lil' Sketches blog now has its very own forum, and a gallery is soon on its way!! The new website (which is not replacing the blog for now) can be found at http://www.sassylilsketches.com/. The new forum is at www.sassylilsketches.com/forum. Go check it out!! You can see all the details about the announcement on the blog here.

And just for fun, and for no reason at all other than I love him and that he's so cute ;-), a couple of pictures of my old kitty cat Chipper. Getting some fresh air in the back yard just before the first snow. And finding his way back to his favorite sleeping spot as soon the Christmas tree was up! My baby is 26 days shy of his 18th birthday!





But back to the subject... go check out the new forum!!!
