Treat Yourself

-
What an easy sketch today over at Stampin' Royalty!  I had to redo my large pink piece because of a smudge - it's amazing how ink can sneak onto your fingers when you're not looking!!!  I perked the "background" up a bit by adding a little Crystal Effects - I need to go back and add it to the headlight on the scooter too.



I finally got around to doing a real-live scrapbook page today too.   I've had these pictures out ready to work with for quite a while - I totally CASED a scrapbook layout from Spring 2009 Canadian Scrapbooker Magazine.  The original page was made by Tracey Kuzniak.  And oh do I remember walking in on this mess in 1990!  Grant was so please with himself - keeping so quiet and busy after waking up from his nap.  It was a mess to clean up - but one of those "must capture" moments.Covered in Penaten Cream - Sticky gooey Mess!

Keep an eye open for those special moments - they're never repeated.  Thanks for stopping by!
