Stash bash with a sketch

I’m  participating in two challenges with this layout. The first one is Stash bash with Lasting Memories.  Here’s the details for the challenge: November is "Stash Bash". You will be given a choice of three items to use on your layouts. You can use just one of the items, two of the items, or all three of the items, and you are welcome to use other things on your layout, as well. The first challenge of the month is: #572 - Ephemera, Chipboard, and/or Tag

I used two- Ephemera and chipboard.  The chipboard arrow and circle were white chipboard piece from close to my heart that go with a matching stamp set and circut cartridge so it’s old.  Covered them with even older mulberry paper that I sprayed with shimmez.

The ephemera is mostly stickers from a CM summer themed pack.  Even though the the picture are from August they aren’t overly  summerish, but the words are universal.  The dots are a dollar store score from a while back as well.

The other challenge I’m participating in is the sketch challenge at Sketches in Thyme #491

 Here’s my take.

I had this mixed media water color looking paper in my stash for over a year now and final breaking into the paper pad.  I tried to leave a bit of the edge exposed but also follow the sketch with the addition of  chipboard, ephemera and photo cut outs of the candy packaging to mimic the border edge in the sketch.

Thanks for stopping by to take a peak
