Stuck?! 15th December Sketch

December is certainly flying past, it is already time to share the second Stuck?! Sketch with you all.

Here is the 15th December sketch



Here is my take on the sketch, I have created a photo collage of our recent Christmas Pageant and the arrival of the big guy. You will see more gorgeous WOW chipboard featured on this page with loads of glitter to get all festive.

Father Christmas is here

Scrapbook Savvy BIG December Sketch

It's a busy time of year but thankfully I can still find a bit of time to get some scrapping done.

This month Chloe chose a gorgeous page from the Savvy gallery created by Rikki to base her December sketch on  and I really enjoyed my take on it.

Here is the sketch

December Savvy sketch

Last night after all were asleep, I spent a few quiet hours creating. My page features a photo of Harrison taken while we were at the Christmas pageant a few weekends ago. I actually got him to stand still for a few minutes as we were heading back to the car through the South Parklands.

I have used the We're Savvy September kit which I just loved playing with and there are still some available in-store
