after an awesome weekend of creativity with tim holtz and margie romney life just feels good again! being in the beautiful city of cape town helped of course and the company of beautiful friends who are so generous and creative! but being Monday it's time for a new sketch over at scrapbook challenges. you can head on over here to see the single and double page sketch and some awesome samples by the design team members. i love doing double pages. i love the open space and the size. i love filling it with creative elements and techniques and beautiful pictures. i even love the white space. the uncluttered mess of stuff. and that's what this week's layout is. i used some 'snaps' of the dogs and my other half a couple of years ago. sometimes those everyday moments are just perfect to capture the emotion and feel and add to a layout! so here it is....

some beautiful stickers from echo park all glittered up with stickles.

sewing by machine and bling around photos just for fun, and some beautiful texture.

and some vintage goodness from jenni bowlin.

here's wishing you a beautiful and creative week filled with love and paper goodness. thanks for popping in and to all those loyal followers and friends - love ya lots!
