Space Shuttle Atlantis

Happy Sunday, everyone!  Thought I would share with you today a layout from our trip to Orlando, Florida during the 2016 Spring Break.  Yes, we did the whole Disney thing, but we also took a day and drove over to Kennedy Space Center.  We hadn't been there in several years, and our youngest had NEVER been, so we knew it was the perfect way to spend a day!

One of the additions since the last time we visited was the Space Shuttle Atlantis display.  It.  Was.  AWESOME!!!!!!  When I saw the January 15 sketch at Stuck?! Sketches, I knew it would be perfect to use with a piece of space paper I'd picked up several years ago.

Here's my take on the sketch:

THE ROBYN'S FETISH CHALLENGE #303--"ANYTHING BUT A CARD"--14 FEBRUARY 2016

Thanks for all the lovely Valentine projects that were submitted for The Robyn's Fetish Challenge Blog last week!  They were beautiful!!!  Our new challenge at The Robyn's Fetish Challenge Blog is anything but a card.  Our sponsor this week is A Random Fan, and the prize is three images of the winner's choice from the A Random Fan store.

The Design Team members were provided with an image from the A Random Fan store for our projects.  I chose "Pirate Adventure," which comes with and without a parrot.  For my "Anything but a Card" project, I decided to make a layout.  I used the current sketch at Sketch~N~Scrap

and will be entering my layout there.

I really LOVE this pirate digi!  Since I couldn't make a card this week, I decided to focus on a photo we had taken several years ago in Orlando when we took our oldest son to the Pirate's Dinner Adventure.  He really enjoyed it, and it's a neat experience if you've never been.

Sketches in Thyme Project Life Style--Sketch #13

Welcome to February and a new sketch for Week 1 at Sketches in Thyme Project Life Style!  The first sketch for February comes from the lovely Maven Shawn:

I used the sketch to make my title card for the Week 23 page in my 2014 album.  Unless I SERIOUSLY get busy, I think I am going to be working on my 2014 album FOREVER!!!

The photo printer in my craft room is still on the fritz, but I was able to get our downstairs printer working correctly with my computer in order to print the pics so I could show you a finished PL page!  Yay!!!

I matted my 4x6 photos, because once I trimmed the edges off the prints they were a little small for the sections.  I printed the center photos on 4x6 photo paper, too, then just trimmed them down to 3x4 for the center section.  I really like writing directly on the photos when I do PL pages.  I think it looks neat!

Supplies Used

~Becky Higgins Project Life Journaling Pen (I really love these pens for writing on photos!)

~Bella Creationz Clearly Beautiful sequins

~Echo Park Flip Flops--I Love Sunshine decorative washi tape

~Gelly Roll Pen--white (I'd never used this pen on my photos before, but it worked quite well!)

~Me and My Big Ideas Chipboard Embellishments--Sassy Alphabets

~Washi tape (turquoise) from stash

We can't wait to see the PL cards you create with this new sketch!  Be sure to get your creation linked up at the Sketches in Thyme Project Life Style challenge blog before the end of the month.  Good luck, and happy scrapping!
