TPE & SOUS Challenges

I can't believe it's Friday again.... This week's challenge at The Pink Elephant is  Childhood. Since mine are all grown up and are too busy to give me gran-babies I scrapped my friend's precious son Dalton. He loves to play with my husband's childhood favorite toy called  "Erector Set".  I used my Cricut Paper Dolls to cut out the trucks, the grass and  the road.


Steve and Dalton  built a pretty big crane with a working motor and everything. Dalton was sooooo happy with it he wanted to take it home!!!!! Steve has had it since 1958 after his 3 older brothers passed it on to him. He said "yes" to Dalton and his mom said "no way Jose......"



Today's challenge at http://stuckonusketches.blogspot.com/ is this  beautiful sketch by Pagemaps.


This is my take of the sketch:



 The green flower is made out of crepe paper and the yellow & white one out of felt.



I am off to a 4-day Scrapbook Retreat in Panama Beach City, Florida, with 8 other friends. I am all packed and ready to go.... can't wait to scrap by the ocean!  Have a wonderful and blessed weekend!
