Creative Scrappers Sketch #305 | @The Beach

Hi My Scrapping Friends!

It's a new month and that means a new sketch here at Creative Scrappers! 

Here's the sketch designed by Kristine Davidson! 

 

Here's my take on this month's sketch!

   

This sketch was perfect to scrap these photos of my husband and son having a great time at the inflatable water park in the Bahamas!

 I love the way the colors in the Hardy Hodgepodge collection from Jillibean Soup work with my photos.

Our sponsor this month is The Cut Shoppe and we got to select a few cut files to use on our layouts! I decided to used both The Make a Splash and The Beachy Keen cut files to create my page. Since my layout was about vacation fun, I choose the sun icon from the make a splash cut file and cut it from one of the patterned papers in the Jillibean Soup-Hardy Hodgepodge collection.

 
I started my page off by trimming 1/2 inch off all four sides of my white cardstock, then backing with a 12x12 patterned paper and stitching around the perimeter....before I adding my layers, I used the new Vicki Boutin acrylic paints in orange slice and crushed pineapple to created my background. Next I added some machine stitching to my cut files; matted my photos with the Trace of Triangles pattern paper(reverse side) and from this point starting adding my embellishments.

   

I created my title by using one of the phase from The Beachy Keen cut file, which was just perfect for this page!

 Thanks for stopping by :)
