Challenge layout - fun





This is a layout I have done for a challenge layout at http://cleocrafts.blogspot.com/ I have kind of followed their sketch but have changed quite a lot to suit the size photo I used.
I am posting this in a rush!, I will add the stash used hopefully tomorrow, I have been so busy the past few days that's why I have not blogged. My Santa book is almost finished and I hope to share it with you tomorrow.

Here is the stash I used.... The rocket paper is basic grey - Oh Baby boy, I cut out the stars and the rockets and inked the edgesThe main background paper is also basic grey but I can't remember which one, I sewed around the edges and distressed them and then finally inked.The FUN lettering comes from Autumn leaves, the office line punch out tags letters A through to Z. I also inked the edges and placed a brad in them and a ribbon through them. The zig zag strip down the edge was originally a Bazzill Basic Just the Edge Card stock strip which I did not have in the correct colour so I inked it with Tim Holtz Distress ink using first the Shabby Shutter and then the Peeled paint. I used white acrylic paint to soften the edges and randomly placed a variety of brad through it.
