Had an unusual weekend this weekend in that I hardly set foot into my studio as I was busy creating more special memories to scrap! Still...I have quite a number of layouts to share from weeks gone by so thought I'd pop this one up quickly.
I am loving this Ning! community as there is such lovely work up in the gallery & creating using a colour scheme is a lot easier than I initially thought! I finally found my lovely bag of goodies won over at Jessy's blog & put some of them to good use here.
Namely, that gorgeous ribbon, length of pearls, pre-punched butterflies, bling rhinestone brads, buttons & original vintage book page. I used old stash for the yellow spotted backing paper & scallop bazzill & added the ticket strip from my offcuts, as well as the punched strip.
That gorgeous red braid above is new Webster's Pages! Yummo!! If you read the smallprint next to the original challenge you'll see that the Designer's Challenge was to create a layout in less than an hour & I did it! I even surprised myself...
That didn't include the supply hunt though, which always takes me a bit of time, so I had everything I intended to use on my desk so it was just a case of cut 'n paste! Think I should try this method again as it sure did get me moving...that's the joy of challenges now isn't it?!
You force yourself to push the envelope & create in unfamiliar ways, and as a result you grow & hopefully blossom! Ticket embellishment Jenni Bowlin. "Memories" pop-up sticker K & Co.
Yikes! I see there that the "to last" stickers need a bit of straightening up there lol...now you can see it really did take me less than an hour ;-D
Those teeny alphas are October Afternoon & a great size - not too big & not too small & the blue plaque under "forever" is a Hambly sticker. L.O.V.E those...{came with my new stash box} I couldn't find any alphas suitable for the "forever" so I wrote it on an offcut piece then cut around it & tombo-ed it on.
