Life is Good

The sketch for day is Stuck Sketches May 15, 2015. You can find Christy's Pinterest board here. These layout were much easier to create.

I started this layout with the 6x6 paper pad from 7 gypsies. One of the sheets had the "Life is Good" on it and I thought it perfectly described my photo. I cut it out distressed the edges and inked the edges. I die cut a bunch of circles out of vellum and tan cardstock, then started layering my papers.

I pulled out the lace, glittered wood clips (I had one my box - so I went looking for two more) and the labels.

For my youngest page I just cut the pictures a little smaller and fussy cut the Amy Tangerine word strip paper so that "happy" shows at the top.

All of my edges are inked with block soot distress ink. The banner paper is from the backside of the "life is good"

Thanks for stopping by.
