Friends are Sunshine on a Rainy Day

Hi there!

Another layout to share with you today.

This one was submitted at Sketches 4 All for hosting MY May Challenge, which is a Quote Challenge (MAYQUOTE), with an added criteria to use a border punch.

Click here to go directly to my Challenge Group and check it out.

Hey... You can join in on the fun too!  Why not?  Challenges are so good for the soul!  :)

Here's the layout I created:

This is Julie and I at a Pampered Chef Party I was hosting at my house.  I was so glad she could come!  We had so much fun!

For those of you who don't know about Pampered Chef, it's all about cooking!  They have loads of kitchen gadgets to get you in the cooking spirit, yummy recipes and spices.

Supplies used:

Paper: Colorbok

Martha Stewart Border punch

Quote Sticker

Distressing

Ribbon

Flowers

Glitter Gems: Home Made

Colored Craft Wire

Hot Glue Flowers: Home Made

Gems

Sketch: Page Maps (Feb 2012)

Here's the flower grouping to the left of the top photo.  I used various flowers and a variety of the glitter gems that I made.

 

I used a trio of flowers just above the quote.  I tucked the wire stems under the sticker.  These cute little flowers were made using hot glue, then I adhered the "petals" together and added a gem in the center.  They were painted using markers.  You could use nail polish also.

 

I also added another hot glue flower above the photo.

A closer look at the glitter gems.

The quote was distressed along the edges and ribbon was added above it.  Below is where I added my punched border.

Thanks so much for stopping by!

Have a wonderful day!
