Sassy Lil Sketch

Hey everyone!
Can you say addicted?  Yup that's  what I am!  I am loving these sketches and I am totally addicted!  I did the new one sketch challenge that came out on the 21st of December from Sassy lil' Sketches.  I had so much fun!

Here is my take--This fall we went to a local festival and they had a person making balloon figures.  The boys were just amazed!  I love their expressions on their faces.  Just way too cute!  Michael had them make a ghost and Jack got a double light saber from Star Wars. 

Here I made a journaling spot with some of the scrap.  It is hard to see but I inked the edges of the journaling spot and the edges of the scallops at the bottom with Black Soot from Tim Holtz.

I used once again some of my DCWV rub on stitches.  My little sewing machine is one the blink and I haven't decided if I want to get a new one or not.  I might just try to fiddle with it again to see if I can get it to run.

Supplies

Paper:  Pebbles

buttons and twine:  paper trey ink

rub ons: DCWV

I have made a pack with myself that I can't buy any more paper until I clear out some of my old stuff--So with this layout I cleared this line out!  I have had it FOREVER!  I thought the colors just worked with it.  

Well yesterday I wanted to get a start on taking down the Christmas tree but I got caught up instead in cleaning out the basement toys. 
The one thing I hate about Christmas is all the new toys--where do they go?  So I cleared out a bunch--some are going to charity and some I will rotate.  I like to rotate toys.  Keep some in storage and in about six months put them back into circulation and take others out.  Keeps them happy that way. I have found with mine--if there are tons and tons of toys they don't play with any of them but when I keep the amount down they play with them more.  So today I am going to try and take down the upstairs decorations. 

Well I hope everyone has a great day and thanks for stopping by!
