So, I’m going to be doing a monthly sketch for My Kits and Pieces (K&P).  They have two kits this month…

Oh Beautiful

0141

The “Oh Beautiful” kit has this fabulous star frame stamp of mine:

ActualStamp-StarFrame

Bask

0061

I did a big post here with three layouts using this fabulous kit! So far, I’ve done five layouts with this kit and I’ve got lots more stuff left.  It’s really good value for $18!

And without any further ado, here is my sketch for this month:

And here is my layout:

These are ancient photos of a trip my husband and I took to Victoria with his family.  If you create something from the sketch, I hope you’ll send me an e-mail or leave me a comment here, because I’d love to see it!

Here’s another one using the Bask kit and a photo from that trip:

On both layouts, I cut the flowers from a piece of Fancy Pants paper and then used a lot of foam adhesive to create some fun dimension and layers.

Thanks for stopping by!
