Sketches in Thyme #286

It's time to share the next Sketches in Thyme Sketch that I did this month.  Here's the sketch - 

And here's my version of it...

This is the view I would have when I’d go to the library and sit in my car using their free wi-fi.  We spent almost 6 months with this being our only form of communication unless we went to town!  Lots of old product on this page.  I used a stencil and a stippling brush with ink to distress my short strips.

And here are 2 of my favorite layouts from the last month.  I did both of these for a special challenge at Creative Inspiration.  The first one is pictures of me in July 1992 in Coffman Cove, Alaska.  I spent one summer fishing with my husband on his commercial fishing boat catching salmon.  I cut the title on my Silhouette.

The next one is pictures of my brother Bill and my Dad in the summer of 1980 at Virginia Beach.  Look at those white legs!  LOL!  Everything I used is REALLY OLD stash.

I hope you've enjoyed these projects!  Life has been busy and crazy at the homestead.  Summers are always busy in Alaska but when your house isn't finished and you don't have hot water yet it makes things even more difficult.  LOL!  I am very happy to be able to play around with my scrappy supplies and have a good time when I get too stressed.  :)

Happy Scrapping!
