Good Times.

At last I have chance to share a layout with you that I created at last weekends crop!
This is actually the first page I started that weekend and it seems fitting that it's the first one that I get to share with you!
It was based on a Make It Monday sketch over at The Memory Nest.


Here is the Make It Monday sketch #33.


Here is my take on the sketch using the very last of a Pink Paisley line that I was determined to use up and if you could see the back you would see that I gutted the middle of the background paper so that I could turn it over and use the other side!! 
The photo is of my eldest daughter with her college pal gals down the pub!


These flowers and leaves were an assortment of punched, fussy cut and die-cut scraps! 


I do love the gold lettering that is so trendy at the moment, but as I am a frugal scrapper I die-cut mine from two different Sizzix die's!


These little circles are just punched from that gutted background paper and a splodge of gold 3D paint added to the middle.

Well there we are at last a layout that was made a week ago posted!
I hope I get chance tomorrow to post another. 
Thanks for stopping by, you know I love to see you!!!

    Lovely page Kerry. Great fussy cutting as always. I often gut my papers too, it's the perfect way to get a coordinating pattern for free.

    Such a beautiful page. I love the colour combination and how you've embellished the page. Those two corner clusters are just perfect. Thanks for playing at The Memory Nest.

Thanks for your kind comments on your blog. I would love to see you use a sketch for three different layouts - one for each of your daughters!!!
