Happy Monday! There's a new sketch up today at Let's Get Sketchy! Here it is:
And here is my take on it. It was our Hotel in Colmar, France, when we visited last December for the Christmas markets. It was an old historic hotel that often appears on postcards. It was cool to be staying there! There was even a Christmas market right in front of the hotel!
Go check out what the rest of the team did here! You're sure to be inspired! And don't forget to link up your layout before Sunday night for a chance to win the June prize!
Have a scrappy week!

Hi there!
Here are a few more layouts I did for the NSD Basic Grey challenges.
I made a few cat pages. This one is based on a sketch by Valerie Salmon and is about my three outdoor kitties. I used the Sweet Threads collection.
I also made pages about our trip to Germany and France this past December (to visit the Christmas markets). This one is about Kaysersberg, in Alsace, France, a picturesque little medieval village. I used the Curio collection.
There's an online crop starting tonight at Scrapbooking from the Inside Out. There will be challenges, games and prizes! We have a week to complete the challenges. Go check it out!
Have a scrappy weekend!

Scrapbooking From the Inside Out
Hi there!
I hope you celebrated National Scrapbooking Day! I did! I scrapped all day Saturday, and a bit on Sunday. I made five layouts, all with Basic Grey collections! Basic Grey had challenges every hour on their blog on Saturday, so there was lots of inspiration to be had! Here are a couple of the pages I made.
This is a small village in Alsace, in France that we visited last December. It was so pretty! I used the Urban Prairie collection for this one. It was based on this Basic Grey sketch by Susan Stringfellow.
This one was based on another sketch by Susan Stringfellow, from Sketch Savvy. They're pictures of my parents' honeymoon in 1961. I used the Mellow collection for this one. It had the perfect retro feel!
I also did companion pages for both these layouts, as well as a kitty layout, all with Basic Grey collections! It was fun to play with my BG stash!
If you want to play along, it's not too late. You have until May 11th to upload your projects!
Happy scrapping!
