Sketches on Tuesday #5

I'm back here finally today. Yesterday was a catch-up day all around and boy did I get caught up! I already have my May Work In Progress pages done. It's such a fantastic feeling know that assignments are done and the house is clean. Well sorta clean.

I had enough time to scrap a quick one for myself this weekend.

I made the title using Howser font and Make the Cut. It's a very easy page to put together especially if you use cropped 4x6 photos like I did here.

I even made a sketch to match!

Have a great day and thanks for stopping by.

Mosh Posh April Kit and Sketches on Tuesday

The April gallery is up at the Mosh Posh site. There are kits left so don't wait! Here is what I contributed.

I love how simple this one is. And that my hubbie was totally game to the photo booth thing. We had the 14 year old with us and he was MORTIFIED that we went in together. "What if someone sees you?" He must of thought we were gonna make out or something in there. I love how easily embarrassed they are.

Speaking of 14 year olds...

I used my edge distresser on this one. It was fun. The Sassafras blue letter stickers and the Cosmo chipboard letters were so fun to work with this month.

Emmitt. I want to squeeze him every day.

And here is the sketch I promised that goes with the above layout "first lost tooth".

Sketches on Tuesday #4

will not happen today. My kiddos are on Spring Break, it was warm Cleveland and I simply didn't get it done. I didn't cook dinner last night either. I'm feeling very slacker. I promise I will post one next Tuesday. All I have to offer today is this pretty little sneak peak for the May kit at Work In Progress.

I see houndstooth...what could be more delish than that?

Sketches on Tuesday - Sketch #3

I'm back with another new sketch of an older page today. I can't share any of the new work I've made, waiting for a few magazine and books calls to go out before I can share. Everyone always has lots of photos, so I thought another 2 pager might be helpful.
Here is Sketch #3

And here is my page:

I'll be back on Wednesday with my April Work In Progress Pages. The main kit is already sold out but you can still get the project kit.

Sketches on Tuesday - Sketch #2

So maybe I was a little wishful thinking about the whole Spring thing. It is freezing here today in good old Cleveland.Max's first high school scrimmage was cancelled due to rain. Boo. At least it isn't snow...

In honor of the cold weather hanging around here for a little longer, today's sketch is based on a favorite layout of mine called "Happy Hat Boy".

I'm hoping someone will take this sketch and turn it into a pretty Spring layout. Maybe that will send some good weather karma here to the North coast.

Anyone going to the Memories Expo in Columbus this weekend? I'll be working at the 3Birds booth #217-219. Make sure to stop by and say hello!

Sketches on Tuesday - Sketch #1

I have been trying to find new ideas and topics to make this blog more interesting. I thought it would be fun to start a regular "sketch" day here at Life on the Lamb. I'll do my best to post a new one each and every Tuesday. Some sketches will be based on older layouts of mine, but some will be new layouts as well. I will also try to include as many two- pagers as possible! You should be able to right click the sketch and save or print to your hard drive.

I would love to hear your feedback! Are these helpful? Do you want to see more? If you use the sketch, be sure to give credit if you upload your design to an online gallery. -And make sure to share with me! I would love to see what you create! :)
