Sketch 69

This week we are pleased to welcome to Pencil Lines, Suzanne Powell . Suzy also provided this weeks sketch for us. Why not try using this double sketch as 2 single layouts, like some of the design team have.

Here's what Suzy had to say;

Hi! My name is Suzanne, but most of my online friends know me as "scrapsuzy."  I've been scrapping since 1998.  I love to use sketches, and earlier this year decided to start designing my own.

While I am mostly a paper scrapper, I've dabbled in digital. I'm no longer on any design teams, because I don't do well scrapping on a deadline, and since I work full-time as a 911 operator/dispatcher, I'm under enough stress as it is. :)

I live in beautiful Peachtree City, Georgia, which is a southern suburb of Atlanta. I have 4 kids, ages 13-20, and will soon be welcoming a daughter-in-law. She is already well-versed in the "we take lots of pictures in this family" thing, and has won major brownie points by always wanting to see my scrapbooks.

My least favorite thing to hear from others about scrapbooking is "I just don't have the time."  I don't either!  I make the time!  I only scrap once a week, but spend that whole day scrapping at a friend's house (which is also where my scrap stuff lives).  Every other month I go away to a lake house with that friend and another, and spend a few days and nights scrapping.  So, yes, I make the time to scrap.  Not to go to the gym or do laundry (my kids do that!) or whatever else, but I do make the time to scrap.  It makes me happy, and as we all know, it is good therapy! :)

Thanks, Pencil Lines, for inviting me to be a part of your wonderful blog. I'd love to have everyone visit me over on my blog Sketches by Suzy.  And as we say here in the South, "Y'all come back now, ya hear!"

Thanks Suzanne, great sketch and LO. I'm not a double LO person these days, so I just used the left hand side with a few alterations.

Thanks again for my Sunday night Inspiration.
