Say Cheese **SOUS**

Well Happy Friday everyone!!! TGIF weeeeee J  I would like to that everyone that stopped by and left me some love and support on my first reveal at Scrap That! It was my first blog hop also and I had so much fun. Ok so on with my layout for today! It is reveal day at Stuck on U Sketches. So here is my layout and the sketch that I got to work with…it is by Designer/co-creator Leah Schaeffer. This sketch is just gorgeous and I will use it again! I used all kinds of papers and goodies from my stash. I did lots of masking and distressing. The photo is my grand daughter being a cutie pie J


Here is a close up of the distressed edges and inking. You can also see some of the masking that I did in the back ground. I made the blue flowers using a tutorial from Vicky Alberto, and tucked them in with the Prima swirl.

I inked all the layers and used a MS punch for the butterflies. This punch was is becoming one of my favourites..after all what layout does not need a few butterflies to finish it off J Just punch them out, ink them and add a gem to the center.

A couple more close ups of the layers of goodies that I used.


Ok well that is it for today. Don’t forget to head on over to SOUS for tonnes of inspiration. I just love how every take on one sketch is so different. Thanks again for stopping by and I hope that you have a fantastic weekend.  Feel free to leave me some scrappy love comments, I love reading them ...take care and happy scrapping J
