We, at The Cuttlebug Spot, are participating with other fabulous challenge blogs to bring you a Recipe Challenge Blog Hop. The challenge includes a sketch, inks, paint or spray, lace, 3 of some embellie, and of course, embossing. You know I'm no scrapper, but although I tried valiently, I just couldn't pull off the sketch as a card. I took some liberties, but didn't do too badly with my 8x8 inch layout. I used Distress Inks to stamp my banner using Stampin' Up stamps (thanks, Lillie). The lace is obvious, and both the banner, embossed with Swiss dots, and the letters spelling "girl", cut and embossed with the Cuttlebug Monogram Seals Emboss Plus folder takes care of that criteria. I've included 3 bows as well as 3 Prima flowers with pearl centers. The DP's are from me&my Big ideas. You can begin the Blog Hop at The Cuttlebug Spot to see the sketch and follow the links to the other Challenge Blogs for a chance to win prizes.
In case you're wondering, that's me with my Daddy (back when dinosaurs roamed the earth). Who do you think looks more proud?

Oh Donna this is beautiful! I love baby-themed layouts (I always have baby fever but I'll have to wait for grandchildren ;) and this is just gorgeous. I love the banner and the color combo - sweet sweet sweet!
ReplyDeleteIt is gorgious!!! It's nice to give old photo's a special spot, especially if you have the talent like you, it makes it almost like a little painting! Very special!

ReplyDeleteI think you're warming up to layouts! It's hard not to do a great job when you are so emotionally attached to the photo.
So very nice!

ReplyDeleteGreat layout and interpretation of the sketch Donna. Looks like you can turn your hand to anything.. Well, we knew that already!! Great job! Andy.
ReplyDeleteI think you need to do more layouts! You don't give yourself enough credit...and those memories of you and your Daddy--that's what is really important :-)
ReplyDeleteDonna, this is precious! I love the soft pink and all the girlie touches, especially that pretty lace.
ReplyDeleteBeing I've never did a layout and, therefore, am not a pro, I think you did great! And what a great picture of you and your dad!!! Amazing, you're STILL a cutie!
