After seeing all the AMAZING creations from the designers, guest designers & then all the SENSATIONAL submissions so far
how could I not be inspired to find some time to play along with 
   

just look at ALL DA COLORS & to be honest with all those colors going on I end up forgetting about the sketch.. whoops!
here is my take on the Challenge..
That tree on the top left side of the mood board inspiration for my watercolor background..

 added some embossed puffy white to this  Twiddleybitz - steam punk light bulb... Cool hey!
The tweeny - cogs are also Twiddleybitz!

Once Upon A Sketch - November Challenge

Hi there!
Had a bit of time yesterday afternoon to do a bit of scrapbooking...  & did a little surfing of the net to get a bit of mojo to flow before to tackle some DT work....BUT!  instead got all inspired after seeing lots of AMAZING creations for 2 Challenges!!!
1st was for the November Challenge for Once Upon A Sketch

OUAS November challenge
Journalling Theme: "My Happy Place"

YEP! my HAPPY place is with these 3 people...

I not a BIG fan of MY handwriting...  I TRULY admire all you ladies that have REALLY nice handwriting & it looks FANTASTIC on your end result.... BUT! for me I come to realize that to be happy with what I created I just don't like/want to do my hand writing on my creations...
SO! that said, I have added some handwriting but it's on the back of this layout....
saying things like I am at my happiest when we are at home just us 4, I love these moments & that I DO cherish these times. as I know that my 2 kids are get older & these times at home just the 4 of us will become fewer! 
  
I have used Twiddleybitz - Swirls & Destination word....
Purchased a couple of new stamps & just had to use them.... LOL
firstly is a  IndigoBlu Rubber Stamp - A6 - Bubbles Background Seriously love this stamp..
purchased it from The Scrapbook Store HERE...
 
& the other stamp or I should say stamps was the Prima Mixed Media - stitched circles, which after seeing a layout of Helen Tilbury's using these beauties I knew I had to get me some... lol

Thank you for popping by & have a SUPERB Sunday...
