Scrap Our Stash Blog Hop.

Welcome to Scrap Our Stash ABC ~123 Blog Hop

You should have arrived here from Lee-Anne's
 blog.   If not, click HERE and head back to the beginning of the hop.   You will not want to miss any of the designer’s awesome inspiration and/or the details on how to enter into the SOS prize drawings!  

The design team was challenged to create a layout inspired by our choice of one of three sketches and our choice of alphas (stash items) to include on our layouts.

Here is my layout inspired by Sketch #3 and using stash items: (Q & R) Quote and Rub-ons.
                                                                      

 

I turned my sketch clockwise to accommodate the photo of my cousin and me at a family party earlier this year.

The quote I have used is - A Cousin is a little bit of childhood that can never be lost.

Most of the quote is made up of rub-ons so I killed two birds with one stone by using both my stash letters!

 

Now there are several ways of using rub-on's, here I have put a large flower cluster of rub-on's onto cardstock, cut around it and mounted it on dimensional foam. I have also added a brad to the large flower to dress it up a bit.

 

You can add rub-on's to other embellishments, here I stitched a flower and used a mounted rub-on as the centre, again with another brad.

 

 

And of course you can add the rub-on's straight to your page!!

 

 

Did you notice my stitched circles that enclose my quote? Whilst I was stitching them I added some buttons along the way.

 

And here is the sketch:
