Playing with Sketch 131 at The Scrappiest

I was glad to play this evening and make a quick page. I had recently gotten the 5th Anniversary kit from The Scrapbook Circle (okay, more like at the beginning of July, I've just been so very busy I haven't had the chance to play!) and knew it would be great for this sketch. All of the elements in the kit made it easy to whip this baby up in less than an hour.

I looked around and found the current sketch, #131, at The Scrappiest. I have always loved Liz's sketches!

Here's the sketch:


And here's what I did with it. I just love the Pink Paislee and October Afternoon papers in this kit! They all go so well together.

The quote that is hard to read here came from the Girls Paperie jubilee sticker market pack, as did the title letters and two border stickers used at the bottom in the layers of papers. The quote reads: "The most wasted of all days is one without laughter. -e.e. cummings" I lifted the "today" and "don't forget" with adhesive squres from Crafter's Companion.
Random chipboard scalloped frame embellished with Queen & Co. rhinestones and doodles in blue pen, and random doily I found on clearance somewhere.
The journal circle and date are more Girls Paperie stickers.
...as did the letters that make up the word "sisters."
I must say I love this kit! The only things not inside the kit were the rhinestones, doily, and scalloped frame. Everything is wonderful! Head over to The Scrappiest to play along, and as of right now, the Scrapbook Circle still has some of these gorgeous kits left...grab one up! You won't be sorry! (and you'll get one of their cool pizza boxes they send the paper in...ingenious, as the 12X12 paper fits perfectly and safely!)

Have a great night, I'm not tired, so don't be surprised if there is another post later!
