First Halloween Party

Well, tomorrow is Friday and I can't believe how fast this week went by! My grandkids are having a sleepover with me tomorrow night, so grandma and grandpa should get in lots of spoiling!!!

Todays post is a layout I did for my oldest daughters scrapbook. It's some pics of the first Halloween party I had for her. I used a sketch from Creative Scrappers and am entering it in their challenge.

And the sketch:

The title letters didn't show up as well as I had wanted them to, so I gave them shadows with a black marker.

I thought these cute chip stickers by Cosmo Cricket were just perfect for this LO!

Supplies used: cardstock - orange, green, white; patterned papers - trick or treat & monster mash from Spookville by We R Memory Keepers; alphabet stickers - Making Memories and my stash; journal rub on - Hambly Screen Prints; chipboard stickers - Matilda by Cosmo Cricket; black marker - American Crafts

Enjoy your day!!!

But she's so tiny

Well we're half way to the weekend, woo hoo!! I hope everyone is having a great week! I've been having some fun creating and enjoying some evening time at the pool with my hubby!

Today's post is a layout for this weeks challenge at Twisted Sketches! Although it is not my teams week to design I wanted to play along and support my fellow DT's. I hope you can come play along and show us some of your creativity!! We always have a great sketch for you to try along with a twist to spark your imagination!

These pictures are of my grandson the first time he saw his sister. He was a little wary about touching her! I think it was because she was so tiny, so I thought they would be the perfect pics for a layout with this weeks twist.

The "twist" this week is "tiny" any how, any way and this is the sketch:
