The Eh? Team!
It is add-on sketch week at Sketch Support and I decided to do a layout on Canada Day! My photos are from a few years ago (thank goodness I took a lot because they are some of my favourites).
Here is the sketch we were given.......
And here is my layout! The sketch inspired me to make the 3 embellishment squares along the bottom of page 2. I used some red & white bakers twine and gemstones.
Aren't they pretty? This was definitely a little fiddly, but worth it in the end.
One of my favourite parts of my layout is the title. I participated in a blog hop a few weeks ago and one of the sites had a FREE digital stamp. The title was perfect for my layout. You can check out Cheri's blog here!
For the stars I used a Die-namics die (I love these dies) and then added in some small silver star stickers that I found deep in my stash.
I just had to add a bit of stitching using my favourite 'Sew Easy' tool!
Be sure to visit the Sketch Support site and see what the rest of the creative team has put together......and don't forget to download your very own copy of this awesome sketch!

Off To Chicago!
In a few hours I will be high in the sky on my way to Chicago to attend CHA Summer 2011! It is going to be a quick 'in and out' trip where I will do a bunch of buying for the store.
Chicago is a beautiful city, but don't be too happy for me........I won't see any of it.
Don't get me wrong, I love my job! Who wouldn't love to attend CHA and be surrounded by all that scrapbooking goodness. Watch the Two Scrapbook Friends blog for updates on all the great things I find! See you in a couple of days :)
