I am so excited to share this one with you! I am NOT the kind of scrapper that can cut ANYTHING straight even with a paper trimmer! Really I stink at it so I challenged myself to use this
sketch from Allison Davis that utilized tons of straight lines, tiny cuts, and alignment. I think I did OK! Almost ALL of what I used came from my counterfeit kit except the red letters in the title, the scrap of green card stock that I used to back the apple lace paper and the hemp that I used to tie in the buttons. Yes they are all now in my kit! I did lots of faux stitching since I cannot sew, inking, coloring, and even some stamping and embossing! I also used three sheets of my FAVORITE paper (I cut it there are you happy? LOL!) So don't mind me while I toot my own horn GO ME! LOL! Tell me what you think!
The whole layout, based in my precious and hard to find locally Bo Bunny double dot paper!
The apple lace card stock that I made into a border, backed with DCWV green card stock, inked up, added glazed seeds, faux stitching and green glitter leaves.
The awesome title that my hubby came up with! GO JON! Also the backing is from the stamps that I used, the back of those, then I made it into a ticket shape (love them!) with my corner chomper.
A sharpened image of the journal block and the embossed stamped apples I did for the visual triangle. I had a lot of fun with this one. What do you think?
This is so sweet. I love all the different papers on the left. I assume this is your daughter? she is adorable.

ReplyDeleteI really like how you mixed the letters in your title. I also enjoyed reading your jounaling. That added to the over-all enjoyment of your well coordinated page.

ReplyDeleteWhat a fun page! I especially love the title.
ReplyDeleteCrystal, this is too cute!!! Love the fussy cut apple border and the photos are precious!!! Hubby did good with the title!!! Hugs!!!
ReplyDeletelove how you did the strips
ReplyDeletethanks for popping by-I too can never cut straight (even with a trimmer) so it was funny to read your words...ps-I too don't own purple paper; I hear it's making a comeback so maybe we should be on the lookout??!!!
ReplyDeleteWhat a sweet layout, Crystal! I had to laugh when I read your comment about the Double Dot paper. I have had a few sheets of this for YEARS (can't find it around here)so I use it sparingly, lol! Thanks for sharing!
