Today I am bringing you a fun layout I threw together using the Stuck?! sketches November 1 sketch.
Here's the original sketch:
I have had these photos of me and my besties for a min, but the color cast of the photos is very purple, so I was struggling with how to scrap them.
This navy Swan paper from the Amy Tan On A Whim collection was perfect!
I toned it down around the photos with some gesso then used a cross stencil to apply aqua HS shine texture paste.
I have a severe addiction to stamps apparently, especially The Ink Road stamps, and cannot seem to complete a page without them! Really though, the Swan paper had to have the Swan stamps!
I embossed in hot pink and glitter and fussy cut 3 swans, one for each of us.
I grabbed a couple fun die cuts from a Studio Calico kit to add to the whimsy.
The popsicles were perfect to add color, and because we had paletas this evening!
I used my circle punch to create this faux scallop border to match my photo backing paper.
I love these Dear Lizzy puffy alphas & I don't use them often b/c PINK. I stamped the swanderful sentiment from IRS, and the small pink alphas are from Illustrated Faith.
It's been a minute since I created a non-assignment page! It felt good. And I'm hoping to get back on my crafty track now that my boys' birthday party is over - maybe life will slow down a bit!
I love working with Laura's sketch & this was no different.
Thanks for looking!
