  This month's Scrap Our Stash Sketch (3+) Sketch Challenge is this;

 
I used List 1-Polka Dots, List 2-Quote and List 3-Rub on.
This sketch was a challenge !! I was totally lost at first, and it took me some time to decide what kind of  layout I wanted to make, but finally! I rotated the sketch and placed everything and it seemed good !! Now it is the rainy season in Japan, and most of the days are humid and uncomfortable, and the sky is dark... but I wanted to brighten up !! So, I used colorful paper and pictures of my daughter with a new umbrella! In the picture, it's not raining at all, but she was happy with her new umbrella, even looking forward to the rain. I used a lot of rub ons for embellishments, and nothing much more because the paper is already so colorful. Here are some details;
 



 
The challenge is open til June 29th. Hurry hurry !!

 This month's Scrap Our Stash Book Inspired Challenge is this;

 
I made a layout with my daughter and my husbands picture.When she was little, she would run far away, and then run back towards her dad, jumping into his arms. Now that she's already ten years old, she's grown out of that, but she smiles the same way whenever she goes to her dad. I think every moment is a surprise for him, and he seems to embrace every single moment with her.
I wanted to make this simple but loving, so I just used flowers and a ribbon and some chipboard that matches the atmosphere. I dabbed some yellow paint on the background to complete the challenge. Here are some close ups;

MOMENTS

 
 
I made today's layout based on the May sketch of My Creative Sketches.
 
今日の作品は、My Creative Sketches の5月のスケッチをもとにして作りました。
 

 
These are pictures of my daughter, playing the Japanese drum. She has been learning it for quite a while now, but since the lesson is just once a month...her progress was slow. She didn't seem to have confidence, so I was a bit worried. However, the day of the recital came,and she was...a different person!! Actually, she was quite good!! Better than I expected!! And what was better, she enjoyed performing:)) I wanted her to remember these moments of her life, so I used the word MOMENTS for the title. Here are some close-ups:
 
娘の和太鼓発表会の写真を使いました。もう結構長い期間習っていますが、月に一度の稽古なので、なかなか上達しませんでした。娘もあまり自信がなさそうだったので、私も少し心配していました。そして発表会当日…娘はまるで別人??思ったよりはるかに上手にできました♪ そして何より楽しんでました!娘にはこういう瞬間をずっと覚えていてほしいので、MOMENTSというタイトルにしました。
 




 
The deadline for this challenge is June 14th. Thank you for visiting:))
