Wow, You are Awesome - Kraft+ September Challenge

Hi there!

I am loving the monthly challenges over at Kraft+ and I decided that I had to give the September challenge a go because I loved the sketch! If you haven't seen it yet, this is the awesome sketch designed by Em Stafrace:


And here is my take on the sketch:
"Wow, You are Awesome"


The patterned papers that I used are from the Pink Paislee Atlas collection. Even though this is predominantly a travel themed collection, I think it also works perfectly for boy themed projects too! I love this cute photo of Isaac when he was 8 months old! He was such a little cutie!

Here are a couple of closeups of my layout:


I like using a combination of different fonts for my titles, and for this layout I combined wood veneer, thickers, and a cut file. Some of the embellishments you can see here include a Freckled Fawn star paperclip, a Heidi Swapp arrow, a wood veneer camera from D-lish Scraps and two word strips. Over to the left of the photo is a flair from D-lish Scraps.


I loved the triangles on the sketch! I cut them out of four different patterned papers, outlined them with black pen, and then mounted them up with foam tape for added dimension. I finished my layout off with a few flicks of dark blue watercolour paint and some enamel dots.

Thanks so much for stopping by and taking a look at my layout! There's still a few days left to play along with this challenge if you want to give it a go!
