layout from sketch


I found a sketch by Lisa E Designs (lisae-design.blogspot.com) and made a layout using it.  I have included both the sketch and my layout.


The paper is MME Cut & Paste "Flair" collection.  I can't remember where I got it but I got a kit that had the paper, cut-a-parts, stickers, tiny word stickers, and ribbon.  The ribbon that came in then kit was MME Stella Rose.  The stickers for the title came from my stash and the pink glitter rose I made awhile ago and the white leaves were something I got off of www.listia.com.  Not sure the brand on them, they just said fashion flowers & accessories.  

The layout is of my daughter being checked out by the doctor after she ran into the wall while doing the backstroke in swim team practice.  Luckily it wasn't broken but it was jammed and very badly sprained.  So, unfortunately she was out for the next two swim meets.  The elbow is now fine and she will be back to swim next season.

Christmas Tree Advent Calendar



My Christmas Tree Advent Calendar.

The tree itself and the base are cut from medium weight chipboard I got at Walmart.  The drawers were cut using a file from the Silhouette Online store (one drawer box) that I re-sized so I could fit 25 boxes on the page.  Each box has a piece of chipboard behind the front panel to add stability for the pull which is a jingle bell attached with a wire.  I am really happy with the way this turned out.
