I went a bit wild ...

... with this layout, LOL! I don't know what happened ... me, who normally always scraps straight and plans every step very carefully, just misted, stamped, splashed with paint, tore and handcut my paper and sewed  this page in half an hour! and I think I actually like it!


This morning I found this sketch challenge on Elle's Studio and saved it onto my computer for later use. But then this afternoon, when I started to clean my desk I realized I didn't want to clean at all! I wanted to play!! and that's what I did ... I printed the sketch and a photo from our summer holiday from last year and just used all these new purchases that were lying on my desk, including the tags from Elle's Studio, and I LOVED it!


I even used my new paints and mask!




and this is the sketch (hope you can still recognize it!).


I got it from Elle's Studio, HERE.

Supplies: patterned paper, washi tape, stamp (today): Glitz Design (Color me Happy); tags and notes: Elle's Studio; kraft cardstock: American Crafts; flair buttons: Stash Panache; camera paper clips: Prima Marketing; Kraft tag: Papermania; date stamp: Amy Tangerine; mask: Kesi'Art; stamping ink: Doodlebug (tangerine) and Archival (black); distress stain: Tim Holtz (squeezed lemonade); color mists: Mister Huey's (gold, taxi, pretty pink); doilies: misc. Tools: sewing machine and Cameo.

And now I've got to walk the dog! When I'm scrapping I tend to forget about the time and all of a sudden it's evening and I should have walked with Jippie, done some shopping and cooking and instead I did none! So that's what I'll do now!

Have a fabulous weekend!! (I think Sunday we're finally getting some sun! hurray!!!)

Thanks for stopping by!
Hugs,
