I was surprised at how quickly and easily my layout came together! The past few weeks have been hard ones and I found myself pushing away the things that I love to do, scrapbooking and gardening. I knew I needed to embrace what I love to do, as it has always helped me take my mind off of the things in life that can bring me down.
I came across another box of old pictures at my mom's house and so enjoyed looking through them. So many happy childhood memories!!! I came across this picture of myself and my brother from way back.
We were feeding a family friend's lamb, Lulabelle! I do not remember too much about Lulabelle, but I do remember her owners, Mr. and Mrs. Wells. A lovely elderly couple who spent their summers in the mountains of Berkley Springs, West Virginia. They lived right down the road from my grandparents.

I dove into my large stash of October Afternoon papers and actually used bits and pieces from several collections; 5 & Dime, Farm Fresh, Fly A Kite and Thrift Shop. I love how the different collections are so cohesive.
I based my layout on the new sketch reveal over at Frosted Designs Sketch Along Tuesdays Challenge. The sketch was designed by my fellow DT member Libeeti:
Hope you can stop by and see what the DT has created and join us in the challenge. We have a great sponsor for this challenge, Artful Delight and Leeanne's wonderful July kit:
