I have managed to play along at My Creative Sketches this month - here I've used January's sketch, which really suited the 61/2" Class Act paper pad by Kaisercraft that I was dying to use!
My layout is called "Happy to go to Kindy!"...
I made my own woodgrain patterned paper by using my fave washi tape - Woodgrain Washi, from D-Lish Scraps.
The other washi tape I used is by Studio Calico. I've layered it up quite a bit there... ;)
And I've made a Cartoon Cutie! A super cute felt apple... fitting into the school theme nicely. :)
I am really glad I got this school photo scrapped. It's so cute and I love how it's a bit different to the "norm" for school photos, if you know what I mean. :)
Well that's all from me for today! A quick post! I'll be back very soon though with lots of reveals coming up as it's nearly the end of the month!
Cheers & TFL!
Chantal :)
Super cool LO and a fantastic fun way to make a page with a school photo. Great job with the washi tape :)
ReplyDeleteChantal this is gorgeous and it made me think of all the 6X6 paper pads I have that should be getting used. I love the technique with washi tape too. Oh and the old book paper works a treat.
