Scrap Africa Challenge " Patchwork effect"

I stumbled upon a scrap blog challenge called Scrap Africa.  I was interested in current theme. Patchwork effect.  Here is the page I created.  The elder in the Photo was one of my Great Grandmothers assistants.  She would have work bees at her house when she was getting ready to head to the NY State fair to sell her baskets.  I used The Sweetest Thing Paper collection from MME. Green tara, recollections and WOC blooms, Tresor Deluxe Lace and Thickers alpha's. I added a sweetgrass frame around pic.

I kept the Title Party from her pics and added details on the journal card.  I have plenty of room to add pics from her party.

Goofy

Here is a page for Sketches with a twist.

Here is my page. The twist to using the sketch was to use cardstock as your base. I used a black cardstock with a punched border then added a doily and a paper from MME sweetest Thing Collection. The pic is of the girls being Goofy in the pool.

Lets Get Sketchy Week 4 Fun Times

I am being selfish and scrapping as much as possible this weekend. I am at home this weekend. No wheels. So in between laundry and cleaning " I Scrap"  Here is the week 4 July sketch at Lets Get Sketchy.

Here is my page.

I used Heidi Swapp Sugar chic collection some recollection lace and trims green tara rose and Wild Orchid roses. Gems are also recollections.  The Girls in Picture are Taylene and Cherish.  Would you believe there was still a line to take a pic with a statue.  We had a great time and the kids were actually tired of me snapping pics.  Can you imagine.
