(Kelly) "There is always Love here"



**This is our 3rd post today...if you are just getting here, please be sure to scroll down to see the previous posts! Our blog gets pretty busy with posting some days, and we'd hate for you to miss something :)**


Happy Sunday!! The layout I'm going to share with you is one I made for a new challenge blog called Sketches With A Twist.  They have their first challenge up, a fun, interesting sketch, with a "twist" which is to use two different fonts in your title. I was inspired by this sketch, but my printer is really low on ink so I was only able to print two photos before I ran out!! So, I made this 6-photo sketch work with just two photos!! I did a super clean and simple page, and while it was tough for me to just "leave it alone" and quit adding stuff, I am really satisfied with the outcome!! Here it is:

The journaling reads: 

"We aren't perfect, we don't have it "all figured out" but one thing's for sure, we are so lucky, because- There is always love here"
I love the wood letters and hearts I used on this one, just some things I picked up at Michael's awhile back and forgot about. I used a combination of papers from 7 Dots Studio, Studio Calico, MME, and Lily Bee. Here's the Sketches With A Twist sketch:
