My layout sample is nearly done. I'm typing out the journaling tonight. Hope to post it tomorrow. Here's the sketch. This is a recent one from Club Scrap. I think the kit was called Lock & Key. I like the row of smaller photos when I have a lot that I want to get on a page. Hope you want to play along with it.

Here I am, late as usual. But I'm here. So this is the layout I've created for this sketch. You can see I am FINALLY working on my South Dakota trip photos. Using paper from various Club Scrap kits. And my die and stamps from The Stamps of Life spinner2stamp set from February. I thought it was a clever way to provide my "journaling" for this layout. I hope you like it and it will inspire some of you to make a layout from this sketch. Thanks for looking.

Perfect colors and that spinner is fabulous! What/how did you do the words? Stamps or one of those alpha/office style stamp? Very cool.

Sorry. I forgot to mention. I printed facts about prairie dogs from my computer onto cardstock and then die cut with the adorable spinner dies. Love it.

You did a great job, I love the use of the spinner and good thinking on using the die to cut out the words. I probably would have never thought of that!

I'm sure you'll see that spinner again on my stuff. I love it.

Thanks for the kind comments on my layout. Nothing fussy. Just graphic design and photos. That's my style, I guess. My sis says it looks very Becky Higgins. Of course, she means Becky in her sketch days not in her new incarnation as Project Life Queen.

I have been devoted to Becky for a lonnnnng time. When CK arrived each month, her sketch was the first thing I went to. And I've kept all of them in a binder. Love Becky.

Very cool Jen! I loved seeing those little guys on our trip through SD several years back.

Okay - you might not believe it but this layout was inspired by the sketch. I kept finding one bad photo after the other and couldn't leave any out. These have to be the very worst photos I've ever taken! There wasn't one good photo from the day. I was annoyed in 2011 but when I looked at them this week, I laughed so hard! The journaling is an apology to my family for the bad photos!
