Wake-up Call

Shocking I know, but I have completed a 12 x 12 scrapbook page. It has been so long since I have scrapped, but I really do miss it. I love the thought of leaving more that just pictures for my family but also the stories behind them: good, bad, ugly, and silly. More about the layout in a moment. My layout is for the Sketchy Thrusdays challenge and Your Memories Here is hosting. You will love the prize that is being offered.

Isn't that prize just yummy looking! Be sure you play along with Sketchy Thursday Challenges so you can have a chance at winning the goodie prize.

I have been wanting to scrap this moment for awhile now and thought it would look great with this sketch. My boys love to wake each other up and it's always a time of wonderful laughter. I managed to capture them on film one day doing what they do best during a wake-up call: loving and laughing with each other.



I used a background technique I learned about from My Tattered Angels using bleach and Glimmer Mists (of which you can get over at YMH). Such a fun and messy technique but be sure to wear old clothes when doing this. I used a multi-liner pin to draw the lined border and of course the circles where punched from some scrap designer paper from YMH that I had left over from some of my projects I've done recently (one of which I'm still holding out on ya'll until next week).
