Summer Memories that make me smile

Today, I have a sketch & a layout to share for
this month's Pages With Papertrey Sketch:


For this sketch, I decided to scrapbook some photos that I took of Austin on our
trip to Nanaimo, B.C. in August 2012.
My older brother had paid for Austin to go in one of those giant balls --
it was hilarious to watch!

I stuck really closely to the sketch, but I did add a strip of patterned paper
along the right hand side and I substituted four 2x3 photos for the two 4x3 photos.


I used some Crate Paper patterned paper along the right hand side of my layout,
and a Simple Stories bingo card beneath my title.
The chipboard pieces are all Pebbles.


Beneath my title, I stamped with a stamp from Papertrey Ink's Grunge Me set, inking it in both
orange zest and summer sunrise inks. 
The enamel dots are My Mind's Eye.


I used a PTI Double Ended Banner die to cut the white banner and then 
I stamped on it using an Elle's Studio stamp.

Here's a close-up of the journaling:


If you create a layout using this sketch,
please link it up here in the comments on my blog or 
here on the PTI forum, so I can check it out. :)

Thanks for looking!

  10. Leigh, this is awesome! I love the two color inks on your grunge me stamp. I am busy planning the kiddos birthday party, so I hope to get back to scrapbooking at the end of the summer.
