Love

Hi there,

It's a dreary, rainy day today.  Ugh!  Everyone says we need the rain.... but I say we could've had a few more days of sun!!  :)

The layout for today was submitted at Colorful Creations for their May Sketch a Thon... for May 9th (ANNEMAY).  FUN sketch to work with!

Here's the sketch:

 

This is what I created:

Hubby and I in 2000.  Love this photo!

Supplies used:

Paper: Colorbok, DCWV

Lace

Ribbon

Sizzix Leaf Die

Vellum Leaves

Flowers

Glitter Gems: Home Made

Title Sticker: K&Co.

Corner Rounder

 

I added a couple of the vellum leaves under the flower and a glitter gem for the center.

To make sure I had a definite circle, I placed a circle onto my page and added the gems to the outside of the circle... otherwise, you wouldn't have been able to tell it was a circle... because of the crookedness!  :)

The biggest challenge was finding gems that were the same size.  I have a tendency to make them different sizes!  

Here's the flower cluster to the right of the photo.  I used several different flowers and tucked the vellum leaves under them.

A closer look at the vellum leaves.

The title sticker was added just below the photo.

A better look at the flowers and gems.

Rather than add the lace and ribbon straight across the page, I broke it up a bit, tucking it under the photo mat.  Just for something different.  Love how it turned out!!

Thanks so much for stopping by!
