Don't Stop Believing | Stuck?! Sketches August 1st Challenge

Hi friends!

It's time for a new challenge over at Stuck?! Sketches! Here's the August 1st sketch designed by the talented Laura Whitaker...

I really enjoyed creating with this sketch! I decided to use one horizontal photo rather than the two smaller photos on the sketch. Here's my layout...

I documented a photo of our family that was taken on Christmas Day last year. I love it when we manage to get a photo of the five of us together!

I used the gorgeous Fancy Pants 'Dream Big' collection to create this page. The colours in the collection complemented this photo perfectly!

I created a cluster on the bottom left hand corner of the photo that includes a floral die cut from the collection as well as a Kinder Kreations flair button. I also tucked a kraft tag underneath the left hand side of the photo.

I tucked a couple more die cuts under the top right hand corner of the photo.

I decided to move the title and strips of paper at the bottom of the page over to the left hand side. I included a beautiful Charms Creations White, Denim & Stripe Heart in this bottom cluster, and then I added a die cut on top, which I decided to use as the title for the page. Charms Creations is one of the sponsors for this challenge, so make sure you play along for your chance to win a $20 gift certificate!

I finished the layout off with a few little puffy stickers, some enamel dots, and gold ink splatters.

If you haven't done so already, I hope that you'll head on over to the Stuck?! Sketches blog and take a look at the fabulous layouts created by my fellow design team members! We'd love you to play along with us by creating a layout based on this sketch! Link up your layouts on the Stuck?! Sketches blog by August 29th to be in the running to win a prize from one of our very generous sponsors:

Thank you so much for visiting my blog and taking a look at my layout!
