Butterfly Tree

The June Week 2 Paper Scraps challenge over at Simply Scrapping Crafts was posted today. The challenge is to make a butterfly tree. This is my try at it. The design team made some fabulous inspiration trees, so hop on over and check them out and try your hand at making one.

My Superstar!

I made this layout for the June Week 1 Sketchy Saturday challenge over at Simply Scrapping Crafts. The sketch had a clean and simple style, which inspired me to make something with some of my son's wrestling photos. I tend to get a bit carried away with the frou-frou stuff on my layouts, so I knew he would appreciate it if I kept it a bit more "manly" on this one.

Chris has a lot of energy, and he always paces and paces around during the wrestling match while the other weight classes go before him. I don't know how he has any energy left over to wrestle when his turn comes, but he is a superstar - he just has a lot of extra energy that he has to burn off. These photos were taken during the Virginia Duels in January 2010 - he did so well at that tournament that there was a newspaper article about him! Yes, I am a proud mommy!
