February 1st means a NEW SKETCH from Let's Scrap Sketches and this once includes some of my favorite elements...large photo and square photos! I decided to use some old photos that are actually from Christmas several years ago...they're so CUTE but don't really scream "Christmas" so I wanted to scrap them on their own.

Here's a look...

--------------------------------------------

I used a bunch of my stash on this one...some CMTH Magical, some CTMH Swan Lake (white acrylic hearts)...the gorgeous Sapphire hatch print is from CTMH Fundamentals

Thanks for stopping by...head on over to the Let's Scrap Blog to check out the sketch and play along! Up fro grabs this challenge is a $10 ONLINE GIFT CERTIFICATE ***to anywhere of your choice***

Like I do often, I combined the two-page sketch into a one-page layout...showcasing 2 of my long-time #besties. You know women, we have a girlfriends that are different things to us but we rarely find one, let alone TWO, that can be EVERYTHING to us. These girls are THOSE kind of friends...my one-stop-shop!

Here's my layout using CTMH's Swan Lake Collection. 

I used a retired chevron bag from CTMH to be my journalling pocket. I love to hide my journalling for several reasons and these PML cards are perfect for noting the small things (or in this instance, a WHOLE BUNCH of things) hidden away so not to take away from the photos and the embellishments!
