The last month of summer brings me back to being
a kid again. Needing to make sure to squeeze
every last moment of fun in and take full
advantage of the warm weather before school
started once again. When I was a kid, I
lived in Brooklyn, New York, and I have some of
the best childhood memories from there. My
family and I lived on a block full of families
with other kids around my age. The days were
usually spent at the local pool swimming,
crafting, or playing games. In the evenings,
the adults would gather on someone’s porch for a
gin and tonic while watching all of us kids
play. I remember dreading September and wanting
August to last forever! Those were the days!

Design note:
This
sketch was made for the Metropolis crop that
we had last month. I wanted to mimic
Superman’s flight by having the design on a
diagonal, show some speed by having the
pictures on the ends partially cut off and
add journaling strips that moves your eyes
along faster on the page.

Editor’s note: I love how Michelle
simplified this sketch and made it for one
single (beautiful) picture. The colors of
the kit she has chosen were just perfect for
the colors in her photo. |

the sketch helped me to make them work
together!

Design note:
Since
I did not like the way the title looked with
the red/green letters overlapping onto the
red/green paper and after testing other
placement of the letters, I decided to
create an additional white space with the
circles inked with olive. I felt the circles
were a great choice since they could
represent ornaments and gave the title area
added dimension.

make "hand-made" gifts for dad. You and Lara
were so excited and loved picking the
"theme" and the saying for your gift to
dad. Christmas '07 (DS's painting says: "I
miss you when you're away from the pad" and
his handprints are frogs representing
himself and DH)
