Get Sketchy Card Challenges: Sketch 72

Here's a simple card I made today instead of studying, using a sketch from Get Sketchy Card Challenges.



















It's a "no good reason" card, I couldn't decide what sort of sentiment to put on it so I just left it blank. Head on over to Get Sketchy and see what the other lovely ladies are doing with this simple sketch.

Seymour Dog

I love the sketches they have at Scrapbook Challenges. This one is Sketch 236.

I don't have kids to scrap about haha, so I end up with lots of pet pages:

Snow Dog

We had snow for a single night a couple weeks ago. Seymour went nuts! We went to a park where there were tons of people and dogs playing in the snow. Seymour was rubbing his body in the snow, chasing snowballs and running with the other dogs. It was really cute. We tried to put a sweater on him but it quickly got soggy and came off.
I used sketch 237 from Scrapbook Challenges.

I love....

So I'm too late to be considered part of the blog hop part of this challenge, but I wanted to make it and post it anyways.
CardPatterns: Sketch 98


















Here's my take, which I made for my boyfriend John. The inside was a list of things I love about him :)

Newbie! / I Will See America in 2011

I'm new to the world of scrapbooking. I've been dabbling in it for the last 3 years or so, but just in the last couple months I've decided "Why not?" and I've dived in head first. I haven't taken to a hobbie this fast or with this much enthusiasm since...well, probably since my Lord of the Rings obsession in high school. I love how it combines my life-long loves of journaling, pretty papers, fun stickers, photography, and chronicling, cherishing and sharing memories. I'm not sure how far I'll go with this blog, but it seems like fun!
This is my most recent L/O, for the January Word Prompt Challenge on Scrapbook Challenges: http://scrapbookchallenges.ning.com/forum/topics/112-word-prompt-challenge

My boyfriend and I are planning a great American road trip, for which we are working hard planning and saving and we are VERY excited.
