Hello all! I have my May calendar page today. I used this sketch from Lasting Memories because I worked best with the photos I had:
I divided some of the photo spots into smaller spots so I could get more photos on my page. I used a new collection of paper I found at my local scrapbook store from a company called Paper Rose out of Australia. The colors and designs are so beautiful, I look forward to using this one more! I used strips of cardstock for my journaling. For the title, I used my Cricut. I had a scrap of paper that I had done the smooshing technique on with colors that worked with the colors of the papers on my layout, so I cut "May" from that and found coordinating cardstock for the flowers. This collection has a die cut butterfly pack, so I used some of those to scatter around my page. I decided a couple of the clusters needed a little more, so I splattered some yellow and orange ink on the background. I finished things off with some washi tape and enamel dots.
This is just gorgeous! The photos and paper choices match perfectly! It’s a great sketch to use for a month in review layout! Thanks for sharing your work with us at Lasting Memories Layout Challenges!
