The Paper Variety Week 17 Sketch Challenge

For this challenge at The Paper Variety (click here for their website), I made a layout. Now I'll be honest, I haven't been making many layouts lately, basically because I just prefer making cards. The challenge was to make a card, layout or other paper project using the sketch below:

 

Here is my layout:

 

Finished Layout: 12" x 12"

Materials:
Cardstock: Embossed Blue, Teal, Green, Purple, Orange and Patterned Paper
Cricut Cartridge Cupcake Wrappers Scallop (Girly) (Button 37 Shift Toppers)
Cricut Cartridge Cindy Loo "Best Friends" welded
Cricut Design Studio
EK Success Scallop Circle Punch
EK Success 1 1/4" Circle Punch
Cuttlebug Embossing Folder Swiss Dots
Sizzix Embossing Folder Plaid
Mounting Tape

My best friend's name is Trish. We have been friends for, well, over 30 years (geez, it really has been that long, hasn't it?) We have been through just about everything...good and bad, happy and sad, and everything in-between. I don't know what I would do without her. I'm glad that she is in my life.

I hope everyone has a best friend. I think friends are important to have. In addition to Trish, I have several other good friends that I treasure. I really feel that my life is blessed with my friends.

Challenge yourself...whether it is to make a card or a layout or talk to someone new and become a friend...just imagine what you could do.....

Finished Card: 5" x 5"

Cricut Cartridge Sweet Treats Cupcake 1 page 24 (Base Shadow/Blackout and Shift Shadow/Blackout), Cupcake 4 page 27 (Shift Base, Base Layers)
Cricut Cartridge Cindy Loo  "sweet" (each letter, Base Font)

Glitter Glue Clear
Cuttlebug Embossing Folder D'Vine Swirls

Here is a different view:

I use Design Studio to make the cupcake because honestly, I don't like how high the "paper" comes up on the original image...so, I cut it shorter. I hope you are able to see all the glittery details...swirls, paper and letters. I used only one type of glitter glue (it's missing the label, sorry), but it shows up differently on each type of paper.

Leave a comment...and don't forget to become a follower...I would love to have a give-away when I reach 50 followers. (Plus, I just love hearing from you...thanks!)...imagine what you could do......
