Stylin' Stampin' INKspiration Blog: Scrapbook Sketch Challenge Double Page Layout Lots of School Fun

 

Good morning and once again we have another snowy Monday (really, I think we're all more than ready for spring) hopefully this is the last snow of the season.  We had a great weekend, I ran my first half marathon of the season and had a great time and then of course spent the rest of the day, and actually weekend resting and recovering (I actually slept for 10 hours Saturday which is unheard of for me).  Thankfully I'm feeling great today and am looking forward to my next race in a few weeks.  So today over on the Stylin' Stampin' INKspiration blog it's the monthly scrapbook sketch layout and this month Jenn created a great two page layout and I decided to use it to showcase some fun pictures from school last year with Aidan (much warmer times). I love being able to create a vehicle to help remember the little elements down the road and this will be great for Aidan to remember the fun memories of school and wonderful friends.

 

I used My Digital Studio for this layout and put several elements on the page but really let the pictures be the focus.  I also learned how to make an element span the pages in MDS which is really simple and a fun technique.

The supply list for both pages is below:
