This month I decided to play along with the sketch challenge at Scrap That for the first time. I loved the sketch designed by Amarilys Doria for the June challenge and was greatly inspired by it. I knew I had a photo of Alex that was taken at the beach, when we went the last weekend of March, that seemed to suit this sketch perfectly. 😀 He was scanning the shoreline for unique shells and seemed to be in a pensive mood. He was totally relaxed and had all the time in the world. I loved that moment as time seemed to stand still and everything was at peace. 😀 For my take on the sketch, I again turned to my fave scrappy manu, Webster’s Pages…I’m still working on using up some of my older stash to make way for the upcoming releases. That, and I went ahead and got one of the warehouse boxes…it was a deal I simply could not resist (just $25 for an absolutely stuffed, $131 retail value box full of WP goodness).
