I was just pottering around and thought I would just get one more challenge layout done and I chose to do the one for SHOW US YOUR STUFF... which is
to use handwriting on your layout and one hand made embellishment..We had an enjoyable day on Sunday and I got some lovely photos of my DD and I just wanted to scrap one of them.. It is of her standing near the flag of her birth country.. I always want her to be proud of where she came from and I just wanted to put some thoughts down for her to read each time she looks at this layout..
some closer views..
flowers stamping, bling..
Believe in yourself..
And a new card sketch has gone up over at CARDABILITIES #128 and it is the sweetest sketch I think!!
The sponsor for this month is SAMI STAMPS who have an amazing array of digital stamps and the design team were lucky to get an image to use on our cards.. I chose to use a lovely rose vine stamp.. Be sure to follow Cardabilities on FACEBOOK HERE..... You just might be a feature!!
And the sketch..
How sweet is that sketch? And my card..
I printed off the rose vine and colored it with water color before fussy cutting it out for my card.. You can link up your cards and see what the design team have created HERE!!Thanks so much for coming by and thank you too for any comments, I do love reading them...
Both your lay-out and your card look so beautiful and soft. I love every little detail of them.

ReplyDeleteIt's so nice to see handwritten journalling on a page! I don't know why we are often so afraid to use it :-)
ReplyDeleteYep last day of July and I'm a asking myself where did this summer go....?
I think it's because we have not really had the 'good weather' this year.... :-(
I love your page and all the pretty details you have added. That photo of your dd is so pretty too.
Enjoy the week end Lizzy!
Your layout is just incredibly charming! The drywall tape backing for the photo is probably my favorite element. And speaking of charming, your card is so neat. That holographic butterfly is awesome and the fabric flowers are fantastic.
