2013 in Review

 

Welcome to my final post of 2013...

 

and some of my favourite layouts this year.

 

So hard to choose...

 

So, I have gone for a Top 13 of 2013!

 

Enjoy..

 

 

Two of my fellow DT girls from

 Stuck On U Sketches

 and now firm friends, Tracey & Annette.

 

They live in Brisbane, Australia.

 I live in Scotland.

 

The three of us used this same photograph for

 the SOUS sketch

 back in January, with

 very different results!

Darling Son's 30th Birthday.

 

***

Love this layout of Hubby and I.

 This was the

100th Sketch Reveal

 from SOUS

 in February.

 

***

 



Middle Granddaughter, Erin.

 Using only paper - love it!

 

***

Loving this candid photo of

 Darling Daughter - a total fluke!

 

 Loved this paper technique.

Time consuming, but so worth it.

 

***

Back in Brisbane again,

with Tracey and Annette.

 Lizzy is with us too.

 

She was on the SOUS DT for

a short time as a card designer.

 But sadly, we no longer do

 card sketches on SOUS.

 

***

Love the papers, love the photo's,

 and my poor wee Granddaughters

 running up and down the garden

holding hands until Granny

 got the

 PERFECT photo....lol.

 

***

So proud of Hubby taking this photo.

 He doesn't usually get it right.

 

 He sure took a good one this time.

 

 This was the first photo I scrapped

 of our recent trip to Paris.

Now one of my all time faves!

 

***

Moulin Rouge - what a memory.

 

Our Sketches at Stuck On U Sketches

 always provide the perfect

 blueprint for any subject.

 

 Layouts I wouldn't be producing

 without them.

 This was from one of our

 sketches in August.

 

***

Two little girls and their Grumpy!

 

 Loving the natural tones in

 this layout and the treasured

photo's from a lovely day

 out with our

 Granddaughters!

 

***

I have hoarded these Pink Paislee

 papers for, like, forever,

 just waiting for the perfect

photo and the perfect sketch

to complement them.

 

The SOUS Sketch from October

 and photo of eldest

 Granddaughter, Rebekah,

made me finally chop

them up....lol!

 

***

I love to use black on my pages,

 it provides an amazing contrast

 no matter what papers you use.

 

So I was thrilled to be invited

 to join the

 Black With 2 Design Team

 earlier this year.

 

 This layout was made using

the November Colour

Palette.

 

***

And, finally,

 a treasured photo of Rebekah,

from our trip to London.

 A favourite for sure.

Well, hope you enjoyed this

 little trip down memory

 lane with me.

 

Looking forward to more

 creative fun in 2014.

 

First DT Reveal will be

 Black With 2

on

1st January 2014,

and a whole new format

- so excited to share with you.

 

Then on

 3rd January 2014,

the first

Sketch Reveal

 of the

 New Year

 from

Stuck On U Sketches!

 

Gotta Love Scrapbooking!

 

See you Soon!
