Hey everyone~
It's time for the monthly scrap sketch challenge from My Favorite Things. This month's sketch is super-cute! Check it out:
I began with a 12x12 sheet of a gray-blue textured cardstock. I then added pretty patterned paper layers made from Kaisercraft's Pickled Pear collection. I love the colors in this collection! I chose to keep my layout pretty clean and simple, so the photo would remain the star of the show. :) The circles were die-cut with the Circles 1 and Circles 2 STAX Die-namics dies. The flourishes are the Leaf-Filled Flourish Die-namics, Large Leaf-Filled Flourish Die-namics, and Sentimental Flourish Die-namics dies.
I mounted the photo on Jellybean Green cardstock, and more of that blue-gray cardstock. I then rounded the top right corner for added interest. The photo itself was printed in a sepia tone.
The sweet little flag in the upper left corner was made using Fishtail Flags Layers STAX, a bit of patterned paper, the date stamps from , and Jellybean Green ink.
The sentiment flag at the bottom right corner was made using Fishtail Flags STAX, Jellybean Green ink, white string, and the Button Border Die-namics. The semtiment is from My Favorite Sentiments.
There will be a random draw from all the participants who have uploaded their scrapbook pages to the Splitcoaststampers Gallery using this month’s keyword MFTScrap6. One winner will be chosen and will receive a $15 gift voucher to the MFT Boutique. If the winner used MFT stamps, they will receive $ 5 in bonus bucks, for a total of $20. You have until noon on Monday, April 15 to play along.
Thanks so much for stopping by, friends!
