Let the Good Times Roll

Hi everyone, thanks for joining me here today.

It's my turn today over on the Scrapbookit blog today and I'd like to share with you a layout I have created with the March challenge in mind.... the challenge was set for us this month by Guest Design Team Member, Mary Bennetts.  Mary has set a great challenge for us; it is to create a layout using texture, layers and a title using a song or quote, and some stamping.

Following Mary's challenge brief this is the layout I came up....

I created my layers using the gorgeous Graphic 45 Couture Collection (Stunning,Gorgeous and Classy)

to further enhance the layering of the photo I included a tag and doily.... 

to give the photo a little extra pizzaz I used some fashion trim bling from Sullivans.... 

Here you can also see a close up of the stamping on the Green Tara paper petals, and some of the texture I created with the Scrap FX Petal Pattern Stencil and modelling paste...

I followed along with the brief finding this great Scrap FX title "Let the Good Times Roll" the perfect song title to go with my photo!!
This close up shows more of the texture created with the modelling paste and Petal Pattern Stencil.... don't you just love that texture....
This view also shows the stamping in the background as well.... for all of the stamping I used my favourite script stamp, Darkroom Door's "French Script", everyone should have this fabulous stamp in their stash....

Well that's it from me today, except for a reminder about the Scrapbookit retreat is almost upon us, and I'm so excited that I will be teaching there... If you would like to join us at the last minute contact Jo to get all the details, on 0407058604. It's going to be a great weekend, I hope to see you there.

till next time

happy creating
