Precious Memories (SOUS Challenge)





Hello everyone on this super saturday....I did another sketch at SOUS...I just love this challenges, so inspiring...when I saw this I thought this would be a cute layout with my dd on her 1st day of preschool..she was so precious with her new clothes, lunch box, and her new bookbag...she is only 4 but I just love these memories of her...come check out the blog at ....http://stuckonusketches.blogspot.com/

I used George for the circle behind all the flowers (can't really see it but it is there...cut @ 7 1/4"...

The swirls are from Home Decor cut @ 3" and (1 swirl) from GS cart cut at 2"

I used WIMG for the flowers (daisies) cut once at 3 1/2", 3 1/4" and 3" (hot pink and light pink) layered them all..used sandy's technique...where you score each petal and then curl them with a pencil or your finger..I used my finger...pop dotted some of them and then used glue dots for the rest which gave a 3d look...love this...Thanks to sandy for the inspiration and technique...keep them coming...always love to learn...

then I cut flowers again this time twice at 3", 2 3/4", and 2 1/2"... also in hot pink and light pink with brads that have sayings "Flowers" and "Happy"....

I used WIMG for the smaller flowers (blue and white) cut twice at 2 1/2", 2 3/4", 2 1/4" and then added a jeweled brad...

I used GS cart for the journaling tag...image10 = icon and blackout icon cut @ 3"

also used gs cart for the title PRECIOUS cut @ 2" doodled on it.

then Memories (jumbled) cut @ 1 1/4" and cut a piece of pink paper around it to make it stand out , doodled.

Used Home Decor for the butterflies cut @ 1 1/4", doodled on them, and also pop dotted to give 3d look...I used fiskars border punch for the 2 1/2" patterned paper on the side...I think that is all...Thanks again for this challenge...and Becky I just love what you come up with!
