Why Scraps of Grace you ask??? Primarily because it is through God's grace that I am able to do what I love...scrapbooking, cardmaking, basically anything that has beautiful paper and embellishments involved. This is also a place to share my work as well as whatever is on my heart. A creative outlet for the mind, body, and soul.

I encourage you to relax, read, and browse a while and I hope that your day will be brightened and blessed by what you encounter.

Time Stands Still...

Here's a layout I did for this week's sketch over at The Scrappiest.  I don't know how she manages to do it but Liz comes up with some of the best sketches I've worked with.  Or maybe they just suit my design style...whatever it is, I can pull together a layout in record time (mind you, a few hours IS record time for me).  So here's the sketch...

And here's my spin on it...
I love this photo - it's yet another one I took last February when Paul and I were in Georgetown for a long weekend.  There were so many beautiful, historical elements to photograph and I went absolutely nuts with my camera.  This buggy was sitting alongside a frozen stream in the midst of what appeared to have been someones farm.  The colors were faded but I could imagine how bright and vivid they once were.  When I reflect on this photo it's almost as if time is standing still and I'm transported back to another era.


Pin It!
