I'm back on a creative roll. It definitely helps that I still have page kits and pictures paired from the last retreat I attended. I always get more materials together than I can work through in a long weekend. Anyway, I put together a Birthday layout for my husband using the current sketch challenge at Lasting Memories. Lori K has selected another Alison Davis Sketch that was perfect for my small bits of paper and photo.
Here's the sketch
I only had a little paper left from my TSR kit but almost a full 12x12 sticker page so this is what I did
Started off by staggering my stripes side to side with a little bit of overlap from top to bottom. That way if my cuts were a little imprecise you wouldn't be able to tell. In the end, most of the edges ended up covered by stickers so you can't tell but I liked to have options as I create. As I mentioned before I had nearly a full sticker sheet so instead of die-cutting a bunch of shapes I used the themed stickers instead. Some are directly on the layout while others are popped up on foam to give added depth.
Since it's been a while since I've shared my tracker sheet I thought it would be good to add it too
Took most of August and September off to work on some building projects. Not on target for 10 layouts a month but the retreat weekend will help with the year-end total.
Thanks for stopping by
