Quite a Spectacle

I Love this week's sketch at Let's Scrap and, again, I only did the left side! Clean lines with the simple retro look. An easy sketch to work with this week.
Love these photos... is she not the cutest? I had a lot of fun with this layout and it really was very fast and simple to create.
I cut out a pair of glasses from a magazine and then used some diamond glaze for added dimension.
I created this border strip from matching patterned paper and, after soaking in it water, I crumpled it and added a few matching buttons.
and.... the banner was just created by fussy cutting from the "Kitch" line of The Girls' Paperie...... I'm really loving banners lately and have used different ones on most of my recent layouts.
Hop on over to Let's Scrap and take a look at what the other design team members have created using this week's sketch.

My Pink Umbrella

Here is this week's sketch challenge at Let's Scrap

Lately I have been a fan of one-pagers so I just did the left side of the sketch. These are photos of Dale, Meagan and I in Peebles Scotland. The rain came on and I had a chance again to use "my pink umbrella". I loved this umbrella (mainly because it was pink) and carried it with me everywhere I went until a windstorm blew it inside out in Oxford England. My friend Janice has since given me a new one to take with me to England this summer... Thanks Janice!
I fussy cut the umbrellas and rain boots from some digital downloads that I purchased on Etsy... they were so cute!
