Just Us Girls Sketch Challenge

Happy Saturday everyone!  What are your plans for this weekend?  We're taking it easy most of the weekend and I think the rain is supposed to hit here...so that is the perfect plan.  Having family over tonight for a belated birthday celebration for Collin and then on Monday we'll all be heading to the Cincinnati Reds game. So...I'm hoping to do a lot of relaxing with the boys and am going to try and sneak in some scrapbooking for their books too!  Cards are so much easier to do quickly.  Pulling out all my goodies for scrapbooks is a much bigger endeavor! :)

So...onto the topic at hand!  It's Saturday and it's time for a fabulous sketch created by Maria over at Just Us Girls.  I am moving into the fall color palette!  I'm using some new PaperSmooches stamps and am also going to enter this in the Moxie Fab Movement Challenge.  Hopefully I've created a bit of movement with the falling leaves!

 Pop on over to the Just Us Girls blogs to check out what the fabulous designers have created and come play along with us!
