I thought the wonderful "Sunday Picnic" line would be perfect for my June Sketchy Challenge for Canadian Scrapbooker.
Another fantastic sketch by the talented Jill Sarginson! |
And here is my layout, featuring BabyOfTheFamily....
Sweet Summertime |
The journaling strips are on top of a Magenta chipboard sun, which I first painted yellow and then sprinkled clear iridescent Craft & Glitz glitter on top while the paint was still wet.
For my title, I put the Webster's alphabet stickers on small die cut scalloped circles that I cut with my Cricut. The large orange scalloped flower layer behind the photo is also cut with my Cricut. The pink butterfly is a wonderful Martha Stewart Punch layered over a solid butterfly shape I cut in the shape of the punch. Martha also helped with the the punched scalloped borders.
The orange paper surprised me....I rarely use orange in my designs, but I think it does make this page brighter and happier...just like summer :)
