a couple new layouts

My moments for scrapbooking are few and far between these days, but I recently spent some time (while L was at his first solo playdate!) cleaning my art space, which always inspires me to find time to make something. Two things helped me complete these pages more quickly - first, the Story Matters kits provide fun and coordinating supplies. Then, I found the Get Your Sketch On blog via Cindy and scrapbooking sketches are a good way for me to jumpstart a layout.

journaling - "Now that you're sitting up with support, you've graduated to the ducky tub. You enjoy bath time, but it usually doesn't last long because when you are excited, your feet kick so much that the bathroom is covered in splashes! Kenley @ 6 1/2 months"

the photos on this page were taken with the Hipstamatic app on my iPhone. I love it and use it every day. Mulling over an idea for using those photos in some kind of photo book to document 2011...

journaling - "We had a big blizzard last week that left anywhere from 1" to several feet in our yard. After the sidewalk was shoveled, we had a giant pile by the front door, so Lachlan and I worked together to build a "snow cave". It is just the right size for a bundled up cutie pie"

and by the way the snow cave has completely melted now thanks to our "faux spring" weather this week!
