I know that I do. That's why I am at Let's Capture These Sketches!!<br />
<br />
This week the sketch was designed by <a href="http://miss-hippy-chick.blogspot.com/">Sara Slade</a>. She has been on both the sketch team and the layout team. Here is the sketch we had to work with this week:<br />
<br />

I just love how fresh and funky it is. I created the following layout based on this great sketch:<br />
<br />

It features Paige kneeling in a huge hole we dug at the beach in Port Elgin. It was such a wonderful day for a beach visit with family.<br />
<br />
I used a <a href="http://www.letscaptureourmemories.com/shop/index.php?main_page=index&cPath=559&sort=20a&page=1">Crafter's Workshop Template</a> and painted over it with a sponge brush and some yummy teal paint. I just love using templates. They add so much cool, funky details to any layout or card! Here is a close up:<br />

<br />
<strong>Challenge</strong>: Now that the cooler weather is upon us here in Canada and the US I was thinking it would be nice to feel the warmth of a summer layout. Bring out the brights and create a layout. Link it up below for a chance at one of three RAK's I am offering up for the month! You can also email it to me at <a href="mailto:thynner5@yahoo.ca">thynner5@yahoo.ca</a>.<br />
<strong>BONUS:</strong> Create a layout using the above sketch and link it on the <a href="http://letscapturethesesketches.blogspot.com/2011/11/sketch-110.html">LCOM Sketch Blog</a> for a chance to win a RAK from them as well.<br />
