Scrapbook Steals MWM 8 and 9

Today I have 2 layouts to share with you. They are  Scrapbook Steals MWM Coral 8 and 9!

The sketch for Coral #8 is from the wonderfully creative guest designer Venetia Holbrook.

For this MWM she used the Authentique Carefree Collection Kit!!  She inspired us with 3 amazing layouts.  

Here is her incredible sketch....

.......and her is my layout!!!  peanuts anyone?

I had so much fun with this sketch and I know I will be using it again because it is so versatile!!!

SUPPLIES : Patterned Paper-Basic Grey Olivia Collection, Cardstock-Bazzill, Embellishments-Basic Grey, Buttons-AC & OA, Washi Tape-unknown, Letters-MME Lush, Ribbon-OA, Ink-Tim Holtz Distress Broken China

This is the sketch for Coral #9........

......and here is the layout I created!!!

This new MME Collection, Lost & Found 3 Oliver is so warm and "classy"!!!!

It was the perfect fit for these pictures of my youngest son's Grade 9 Graduation!!

I was SO proud of my Jacob.....he has worked so hard to fit in and do well while dealing with all the struggles that come with Autism!!!  He received the top Award, and scholarship that was a total surprise!  It was in recognition of his efforts, dedication and hard work towards school grades, school spirit, positive influence toward fellow students, school participation and growth in citizenship in and out of his school!!!!  On top of that he received awards for Academics, Citizenship, Guitar, and Service to the school!  And at the graduation ceremony he got up on stage alone, and sang a Beatles song while playing his guitar........it was amazing!!  This poor Mamma was a bundle of tears by the end of the ceremony!!!

Here are a few close ups....
