I have so many cute Easter pictures to choose from this year! I think there will have to be a few more Easter layouts, but here's one I started last night with my box 'o goodies from Studio Calico. I used my April City of Lights kit and then added in a bunch of extras from my stash. This is also doubling for a few things... sketch 4 from my Sketchbook class, the weekly challenge on the SC blog and also for my Scrapbook Stamping and Collect and Create workshops at 2 Peas.
This time I used some cute pics of Nicole, Brian and Aubrey taken after church on Sunday. (I adore Aubrey's dress. I'd quite like one in grown-up size for me!) I wrote the journaling in gray ink so that it's legible, but it doesn't draw too much attention visually.
For Collect and Create, I punched the photos and used punched scraps to round out the layout. For Scrapbook Stamping and the SC challenge, I used multiple stamps on the page, including making my own papertape design with some artist tape and a set of stamps from one of my SC add-ons.
Several Prima flowers, and the leaves are stamped using the Impression Obsession Floral Damask set, which I absolutely love and don't use nearly often enough. I colored a bit with my Copics and I was trying to keep it subtle, but I might have blown it with that shade of green. Oh well!
I'm officially in love with those butterfly stickers from the SC kit - they're exclusives made by Sassafras for SC, and I'm almost afraid to use them because then I'll run out! They're seriously drool-worthy.
That's it for tonight... time to go watch Biggest Loser on my DVR. I can't wait to see tomorrow's sketch!
