2 sweet girls and Kara is an E-4

Hi! I have a layout to share that I created using the awesome color challenge (#4) from Color Me Scrappy. (I think I have a new addiction) I loved the color palette for this challenge, but I was having trouble with photo placement, so I did some digging and came across this sketch site, Got Sketch?,  and the image in the right top corner immediately caught my attention. It was perfect for what I had in mind!

Thanks to Color Me Scrappy and Got Sketch? I have a layout that I adore! :)



I have one more thing to share- a VERY PROUD momma moment. :) That pretty older girl in the photo above, Kara, just got word this morning that she passed her promotion test on the first round and is now an E-4 in the Navy!!! WOHOO!!! It's a hard test, and her rate (job) only has an 8% promotion rate- in fact, most people have to take the test multiple times to pass. I wish I could be with her to give her a huge hug!

What a great way to start my day, especially since I am taking Skylar to the oral surgeons in about an hour to have her wisdom teeth removed.

ONE more thing- I was selected as the DT fav. as well as the random winner for the Color Me Scrappy challenge #3! I won a super kit from Peace, Love & Scrapbooking as well as a guest spot on the Color Me Scrappy challenge blog (look for me on the next challenge, #5).


Have a beautiful day! :)

    ooooh ... you're on a roll, girl! I LOVE this page ... those flowers just rock and I like how you decorated the 'W' in sweet ... are those just strips of paper under 'sweet' to make it look like it's pleated? I might have to scrap-lift that idea! Can't wait to reveal your next project over at CMS!
