Once Upon A Sketch - May 15th Challenge

Must be Journalling month!!!   LOL!
Cause this would be number 3 out of 4 Layout's that have journalling, weather it's handwritten or typed!!

So this Layout is for OUAS - May 15th Sketch Challenge...


You know the Drill!!! this is the Sketch & the Extra Criteria is:


Journalling criteria: Your journalling should be typed (and remember it should be at least 1-2 lines long). You can also make a card or altered item based on this sketch and use a typed quote instead of journalling.
NOW! typing is more my type of thing.......   LOL!
So first a close up on My Journalling

Now my Layout!!
I've used the Scrumpious Webster Pages - Yacht Club!!!
L.O.V.E this range.....
These photos of Ethan, was taken a couple of weeks back...


A couple more close ups!!!
the Alphas are Webster Pages to along with a couple of the Stickers....


I had brought 2 of most of the WP - Yacht club range, As I Soooo loved
both sides & knew I had plenty of photos to go with them1!!

NOW!!! the Circle thing I'd seen a Very talented lady  Tanya Tahir
do this type of thing on 1 of her LO's & thought,FABBO I  have to borrow
that.......
Thanks for stoppin by!!
Hope you all have a Gorgeous DAY.....
Any comments you may leave ME
THANKS HEAPS!!!
Till next time
