Layout from a sketch

Pamela makes great sketches. She created a sketch for the Scrap and Stamp Saturday blog.

Here's her sketch:



and here's my layout:




Jenni Bowlin paper and die cut, Magistical Memories die cut, Prima chipboard letters, Creative Cafe cardstock sticker, and Prima stamps.

The challenge on the blog was to use the sketch, create a layout with a summer theme, and use two stamps. My stamps are Prima border stamps along the edge.

Those sequins sewed along the stamping are the coolest 'antique' sequins ever. I found them at a flea market in a test tube. They are the most beautiful blue and gold color and look like glass. Yes, they are quite different than the sequins you find today. Can someone really get excited about a little test tube of sequins? Yes, I can.

Here are my pretty babies. The picture doesn't do them justice! LOL!




Have a creative week!
