A flower blooms once

Happy Tuesday morning everyone! It's time for a new sketch reveal at Stick It Down. So, today I have my DT inspiration page to share with you.

I used papers from the Dear Lizzy "Lucky Charm" collection. The pearl brands are from Spare Parts. I just snipped the prongs off and adhered them with my hot glue gun. The flowers, dainty lace ribbon, and washi are from my stash. To get the hexagons from the sketch I applied some Liquitex modeling paste using a Heidi Swapp stencil, and just went around the background randomly. Then followed up with a few splatters of acrylic paint in Seafoam Mist, and finishing it off with my stamped title.

And here's our new sketch

Now it's your turn, so go grab your crafty supplies and join us! You can link your projects here. I hope you have a wonderful day =)

My Valentine

Good Morning! The Colorful Creations challenge for Feb. 1st has been revealed. 

For this challenge, we would like you to use the inspiration photo below and create your page. You can be inspired by the colors, hearts, title, etc... whatever inspires you from this photo.

 I was inspired by pretty much everything about the photo, but I started off with the design, hearts, and theme. 

I used papers from the Love Notes collection by Crate Paper. And as a special touch I used two heart doilies under my photo. My husband and I were married on Valentine's Day, and the doilies are actually from our wedding reception many moons ago. The scrapbooker in me saved a handful of them "just incase" and now I finally used a couple. I distressed my layers, then did some stamping on the background and journaling card. The word strips are adhered using pop dots for more dimension and to help them stand-out just a bit.

Thanks so much for stopping in! I hope that I've inspired you in some small way, and if you get the chance to join us you have until Feb. 14th to link your page here. I'm really looking forward to seeing your creations. Hope you have an awesome weekend!
