Red and Gold layouts

After 7 hours of mending, two trips to Tandy Leather and one trip to Home Depot, Michaels and Joann's I'm done with the Army Stuff and can work on a couple of layouts. Honestly my brain if fried so they are really simple.  I started with the Goldish paper that has a border on it from my Counterfeit Kit Challenge blog Summer Festival Kit.

Since my gold paper was 12x12 I measured and marked where I wanted to cut it down width wise and then length wise giving myself some room to layer it. I wanted the full border to show and I covered it up with a couple of photo mats on the side as it wasn't a perfect match.

The second page has the rest of the gold border paper. I split the leaf die cut and added an extra large piece at the top of the layout.

I thought I had this scheduled to post over the weekend but I messed up. I guess I had to much sewing going on.

Thanks for stopping by.
