Better Late Than Never

UGH! There are so many amazing challenge blogs around with so many wonderful challenges to get your creative juices flowing! I had intended to do 2 last week but unfortunately, life kinda got in the way. Nevertheless, I did end up completing one of the challenges for Scrapping out LOUD (eventhough it is late and doesn't qualify for the amazing prizes). The challenge was to use the word SUN in your title and to use a rub-on directly on your photo.

I am very pleased with the way it all came together in the end. I am completely loving K & Co. Designer paper pads - so many awesome things to cut out and use as embellies! The flower centres and pinwheel are from the Cut & Paste series. To add some dimension without overwhelming the layout with too many colours, I curled up some paper strips and attached in a row along the bottom of the photo.
