Well, I've completed another sketch challenge. This sketch was created by Valerie Salmon from Got Sketch for one of the Basic Grey's National Scrapbook Day Challenges. I instantly loved it and couldn't wait to get started, but because baseball, diaper changes, and laundry took precendent over scrapbooking until yesterday, I wasn't able to give it the earlier start that I wanted. But as you can see I did finish in time to submit it for the challenge so I'm happy about that.
For my layout I used Basic Grey's What's Up? paper and embellishment collection with a little washi tape from Bella Blvd and stamps from Paper Trey Ink. Other than that it is all Basic Grey baby!! :)
I really love these papers. I really don't think my photography does the paper justice. It looks flat to me and it is really more vibrant in real life. I used a lot of the cardstock stickers and a couple of flags. My favorite embellishment, though, is the stitched felt and puffy cloud. Too cute for words!! Here is a close up of those embellishments.
This photo highlights something I'm pretty proud of. I recently got my Cameo Silhouette and I am loving it. Not only for the shapes that I can buy but for the ones that I can make myself. The fancy open bracket border, we'll just call it that for now, is a Studio file that I created myself. I am hoping to share some tips of how I did that really soon.

Loved the sketch for this challenge and even though the deadline is near, tomorrow, eeks, you still might be able to join me if you hurry.
Thanks Valerie for a wonderful sketch and thanks Basic Grey for the challenge.
