1 sketch + 2 challenges= March Calendar page!

I used a Sketch Support sketch again this month for my calendar page. I love how many photos I can fit on a two page spread with these sketches! You can find the original sketch here. Sketches in Thyme is holding a bonus open challenge week where you can submit any layout using a sketch!


Finally, the current Scrap your CRAP challenge is two use at least 3 different stamps on a project. It took a little effort, but I ended up using 4 stamps on this layout: the journaling spots, leaves, and two for the butterfly on the left hand page. I used the Cricut to cut out the flowers (Walk in my Garden) and journaling spots (Sentimentals). I also stitched the stems on the flowers. I don't necessarily like taking the time to hand stitch on my layouts, but I really like the texture it adds. I had a lot of fun playing with different products and adding little touches here and there to this layout. (In case you were wondering, the left hand page is going on the calendar this month!)
