Happy National Scrapbooking Day!

Happy National Scrapbooking Day friends!  I created a special NSD sketch for Sketch N Scrap for today!  Here it is:

 

And here is my layout based on the sketch:



Supplies Used: Patterned Paper: Authentique, American Crafts; Stickers: Fancy Pants,

Authentique; Enamel Dots: Teresa Collins, Stampin Up; Punches: Martha Stewart,

Stampin Up; pearls: Kaiser Crafts.

 



I love this fun and bright paper I received as a crop prize when attending this year's Scrapbook Expo! It was perfect for these fun pictures of my BFF's daughter and her BFF!! I think this sketch is very versatile, I substituted this fun Project life card for the third picture but you could of course use 3 or more pictures!!  I plan to use it again soon for another layout I have planned.  I am hoping to spend the night cropping how about you? Any special plans for NSD?  If you need inspiration to get you started why not hop on over the Sketch N Scrap's blog and participate in one of our 30 challenges we will be hosting this month in honor of our THIRD birthday and NSD!!!!  We have lots of prizes, tons of inspiration and of course SKETCHES!!!  No better way to spend your NSD then online with your cyber besties getting inspired to finish up those layouts and get those pictures in your books! 

 

 Happy NSD friends!
