At last....

I have had some play time. I decided to do two challenges. First of all number 12 of Niki's 52 layouts using MME Indie Chic and two photos from long ago featuring 2 generations of cousins with my grandparents taking centre stage in the bottom of the 2 photos.The second layout is something I've been wanting to try for a long time now and the My Creative Sketches challenge gave me the opportunity to do this. I've been inspired by Emilie Chamel whose workshops I'm lucky enough to be going to with my pal-soooo looking forward to being shown how to do this properly. The idea is a stamp only layout and I have used Kaisercraft stamps for the blocks from Merly Impressions. Although grungy and black I wanted to keep it fairly simple with no embellishments. Love this photo of Michael on his 21st.

9/52

So week 9 of Niki's sketches and here is a photo of my niece. I've not put any journalling on it yet as I need to ask her about the picture which is on her Facebook page. I've used MME papers (at last) which I've had for a while so chuffed to be using them.

my creative sketches challenge

Not sure how I forgot to upload this or even that I had done it. I was looking for the photo that I had in mind to participate in this challenge when I came across the layout that I did for it a while back. Oh dear my memory is failing me-it must be an age thing.
Anyhow here it is -another photo from the surprise 21st pizza lunch.
