April Calendar Page

Hello, I have one more layout to share tonight. I completed my April calandar layout! I started with the double page sketch from Stick It Down:


I stuck pretty close to the sketch this month, just adjusting the shapes/sizes of the photos from what was suggested. I decided to make this page springy, even though we don't really see spring around here until May. I found some chipboard tulips and cut the red and yellow layered flowers using my Cricut (for the Bitten by the Bug 2 spring challenge). For some added texture, I penciled in some stems for my flowers and then stitched them with embroidery floss (for the texture challenge at Lasting Memories). I stamped the leaves and used silver Nuvo drops for the flower centers to finish off the flowers. The P and L in the title were actually orange, but the color was not working with my papers, so I peeled off the top layer and then traced the letters onto coordinating patterned paper. I glued the paper onto the chipboard pieces and sanded the edges to make it look like that's how they were made. I had more journaling than my card could hold, so I let it spill onto the page below. I finished off my page with some fussy cut butterflies with Stickles covered bodies and Nuvo Drop trails. (In case you are wondering, we using a charcoal mask product on our faces in the top left photo on the right hand page. ;))
