Are you a paper lover? Do you love DCWV paper stacks? Do you know they are having a monthly Stackaholic Sketch Challenge?
I having been "collecting" DCWV stacks for years. The papers are so beautiful and they coordinate perfectly!
I have to admit that I love them so much that I am always afraid to cut into them! But, what better way to preserve your favorite photos than with your favorite papers! Now that I've started cutting my favorite papers, I am having so much fun preserving my favorite photos and creating memories for my children and family.
Here is the sketch for May.
As soon as I saw this sketch I knew exactly which photos I wanted to use. Here is my 12x12 layout.
Details:
* Stack I used is the DCWV 'Dots, Stripes, & Plaids' stack (love the colors and glitter) Besides the besides the green background paper, all papers are from this stack.
* Cardstock for base is from my stash, and it wasn't labeled
* Chipboard glitter heart and journaling tag are from DCWV 'Dots, Stripes, & Plaids'
* "Socks" title is cut using Cricut 'Don Juan' and layered
* Martha Stewart edge punch (not sure of the name)
* Crocheted 5-petal flowers
* Center of the flowers are Epiphany Crafts Round Shape Studio
* 'Smile' and 'Laugh' are stamped using Pink By Design 'Big Thoughts" stamp set
My crafty mom made both my daughters and I some knitted socks a couple of years ago, and I took these pictures right after we got them. They are the comfiest and coziest socks! My older daughter and I still wear ours all the time. My mom loves to craft and make gifts for all of her children and grand children, and we all love it! I love to crochet and I've tried my hand at knitting, but I've never attempted to make socks, or anything wearable (other than scarves). I think on our next visit I'll take some supplies and ask her to teach me. Thanks Mom!
I had a lot of fun creating for this month's challenge and I look forward to June's challenge and using a new stack!
Thanks for stopping by!
