So I had some friends around today to do some scrapping, eat junk food and chat. We didn't get much scrapping done but two out of three isn't bad! :) Once everyone had left I finished up this LO but I think it hasn't quite worked the way I would have liked. Not sure if I need to add more or if it's the lack of journalling or what but something is 'off'.
I've combined a couple of challenges with this LO. Scrapping in by the skin of my teeth with the Sketches With a Twist challenge this month. I've rotated the sketch and only used two photos since I didn't have any smallers ones printed.
The additional challenge for this month was embossing which also happens to be the challenge theme for Frosted Designed for this week. I embossed my chipboard frame to create the dimples you can see in the close up below.
Lastly, I've used the wonderful colour scheme from ScrapFriends.
I think you lo is very pretty! Sounded you had a great time! Hugs Amy :)
