My Box Babies - by Christy S.
Guest Design Team Member Christy submitted this layout for the Scrap Our Stash Sketch 2 Challenge. Here is her description.
For my take:
Yellow is one of those colors that I just don't work well with. It's my least favorite color and so I end up with a lot of it in my stash. When I initially started this Lo about my pets, I was using a pet stack which had a lot of yellow in it. The pet-themed papers just were not working for me. However, I still wanted to challenge myself to use up some yellow. Since my title is "LOVE (heart) my Box Babies)", I settled on some Sassafrass paper strips with heart prints. I inked the edges of the paper with Colorbox Chestnut Roan ink. I made a heart from chipboard and ribbon scraps. I used my cricut basic George font along with CK Sloppy and CK Blackout. I added some yellow heart buttons that were in my stash. Though I found this sketch challenging, it allowed me to use up a lot of scrap paper.

Way to challenge yourself to use that yellow! I think we all have a color we dread to scrap with.
ReplyDeleteGreat take on the sketch Christy! I love that you challenged yourself beyond to use a different color too!
ReplyDeleteGreat layout and great use of some scraps! The yellow looks great too!
ReplyDeleteGreat idea to challenge yourself to use your yellow! I think you did a great job here!
ReplyDeletewhat a great scrap interpretation. when i find a color hard to work with - i try to look around my daily life to see where that color appears. other tricks -- ignore the color and go for the pattern.
ReplyDeleteGreat use of yellow - and the stash buttons. Don't ya just love it when you find something in your stash that's perfect for a layout!
ReplyDeleteGreat take on the sketch too!
