Hello Scrappy Friends!!! Can you believe it is September already!!! I hope you and your loved ones had a wonderful summer!!
Today I am sharing a layout with you that I created for the Design Team over at the Challenge YOUrself Blog. This month we want to see a photo with YOU in it - showing us how you CELEBRATE!!
This year, I turned 61 !!! Not really sure how that happened, but I sure am thankful it did!! I selected a photo that was taken a few days before my birthday, when I went to see The Music Man on Broadway in NYC with my girlfriends. Afterwards, we came back to NJ and had lunch outside in Weehawken. It was such a great day!!
I used the fabulous PhotoPlay "Add Another Candle" collection for this layout. I love how HAPPY this collection is! |
I sewed around the edges of the layout and as you know, I love lots of layers and added some sequin clusters too! |
I love this fun "Insta-camera" Flair and here is another fun sequin cluster tucked in the stickers and ephemera. |
I used a Vicki Boutin Stencil and some Ranger / Tim Holtz Saltwater Taffy Distress Oxide ink, and then a few splatters of a yellow and blue Distress ink all over the base I created from white cardstock - it was so much fun. Thanks for stopping by and checking out my layout! I'd love to hear from you so please feel free to leave a comment on my "This is Sixty One" layout! I hope I've inspired you to play along with us at the Challenge YOUrself Blog and show us how YOU Celebrate!! ((HUGS) ~ Sherri |
