I saw this really cool sketch on Brenda's the Grand Divas Scrappy Place Blog and decided to give it a try!
As and ADDED Challenge she linked up with Rochelle from over at the THIS or THAT Challenge Blog, so that you have a chance to win a bonus prize! Here is that challenge:
These are photos of my wonderful hubby and me, taken at a Sunflower Maze, here in New Jersey this past August. I love sunflowers and he was so sweet to spend the day traipsing around a field of flowers with me. We were lucky to go on a gorgeous sunny day, with beautiful blue skies and a few white puffy clouds! With our busy hectic lives, I love that we are able to carve out some time to spend time together, and try to do so whenever we can.
We held hands, laughed, got a little lost...and he didn't complain when I took a ton of selfies and pictures! We even stopped at a 50's Drive-In Restaurant for lunch and a cute farm stand on the way home too!
It was a WONDERFUL day and I feel so blessed to have spent it together with my guy in a field of flowers!

| Love the colors in this collection by My Mind's Eye. I also like how the bold blue color of the Bazzill "North Sea" cardstock that I matted the page and the triangles with, makes everything "pop!" |
 |
| I had this wooden title that was originally black, and actually was a magnet. I painted it the 2 colors, and I'm really happy with how it came out. I glued a bright green twine to a circle that I first drew in pencil, to follow the sketch design. |

| Here you can see the "ticket" element that I added to play along with the This or That October challenge. |
 |
| I added the date in this corner - with stickers that I have had forever - I chose white, to go along with the other word stickers that I used on the layout. |
 |
| I love this little grouping of embellishments in the bottom left corner. The clear "flair" embellie that I made with my fun new Epiphany Crafts circle punch using a piece of the pattern paper and clear resin sticker. I fussy cut an inked some flowers and use brads that I've had in my stash forever! I also painted a wooden & symbol with the same paint and technique I used in the title. I've also entered this layout in the November Challenge over at the Studio Challenge Blog Thanks for stopping by! I hope I've inspired you to create! ((HUGS)) ~ Sherri
