Hello! Here's another page I made at my weekend crop. It's about Luray Caverns, which were the first caverns we visited when we went to Virginia and North Carolina in 2012. It was truly impressive!! You can't imagine how vast they are and how beautiful!
I used the old collection "Ambrosia" by Basic Grey. The colors were just perfect. And how about that drippy Martha Stewart punch to mimic stalactites? I thought that was pretty cool!
Thanks for stopping by! Enjoy your scrappy time!

Here's my last "unofficial" layout with Let's Get Sketchy! Here's the sketch.
And here's my layout. I love green... but this is REALLY green! lol! And I used my Sizzix Texture Boutique embossing machine! (I almost never use it... {blush}) The page is about the Cape Henry lighthouses near Virginia Beach. The one on the right was built in 1792 and is the oldest one in the States. We climbed up it, and could have a view of the "new" lighthouse (the black and white one) which was built in 1881.
Hope you go check the DT reveal here and join in with your own creation. You could win a prize!
Happy scrapping!

Hi there!
Although my DT term with Let's Get Sketchy is up, I had a "head's up" on the September sketches! So today I'm sharing the layout I made with this sketch. It's a beautiful sketch with lots of circles, but of course, you can substitute whatever you want instead.
I changed the photo orientation and size. (And just as I'm writing this, I realize I forgot to glue one of the strips of paper I had cut, a pink one... No wonder the page seemed like it was missing something! lol!) It's a layout about a "poney cruise" that we took to Assateague Island in Virginia. The island is famous for its wild poneys! I dug into my "vintage" Basic Grey and used the "Infuse" collection.
You should check out the beautiful layouts of the DT on the blog here, they're sure to inspire you!
Have a scrappy week!
