These were both challenge layouts to get me off my rear end and started scrapping... the green one was a simple challenge - make a monochrome layout. The other was much harder - it was a DETAILED sketch challenge, and I found it very hard to find co-ordinating papers etc that would make it work... the only extra thing I added to the LO that wasn't on the sketch was a third ribbon (the diagram has two overlapping ribbons on the left-hand side, but I had a third piece that was the perfect colour and texture to go with them, and JUST long enough to wrap around the edges of the page...)
My first LOs for 2007

I have a hard time matching papers for a sketch also. But, I do love using them. Your cat in the sink reminds me of our cat, Boo Kittie. We lost her a few years ago, but she would never drink out of a bowl (until she got too old to jump up on the counter) - only the kitchen sink. If you walked through the kitchen and she was sitting in the sink you had to turn the water on for her. We always left the sink on at a drip when were were gone. Sandy
They'e wonderful LO's Karen. I really think I need to use sketches more often. They're challenging, but I like that they get my creativity going.
You're cat in the water is like Digit. He has this water fetish, too. He doesn't try to get on the kitchen counters, and he can't reach our bathroom sink since there's no counter. But, he can sit next to the kids' bathroom sink, on the counter. He'll sit in there when they brush their teeth or wash up...every time! He can have perfectly clean water and still be wanting to drink out of their sink. He even sits in the sink. LOL
Tessie sits in between the shower curtain and the liner whenever we have a shower, and occasionally pokes her nose out right into the shower with us! She definitely likes to live dangerously :P
I used to have a cat that would do that too. He loved to bat at the shower curtain and was always peeking around it. He liked to sit in the bathtub too.
Love your layouts. Our cat Buster used to let us stack things on him too.
