Pretty Please - With a Cherry on Top??

Here is an layout of my precious daughter that I completed based on a sketch over at Twisted Sketches. The twist on the sketch was to include at least one transparency on your layout which I did in the top left corner - the hearts.

Loving the playful papers and chipboard embellies by K & Co's Berry Sweet collection! So fun!

I also managed to tie in a few other challenges with this layout - hey, gotta maximize my scrap time right?? Scrap That! has an amazing forum with tons of challenges, tutorials - even an online store with a heap of fantastic scrappy stuff. I completed one of the Design Team Challenges where you were to use fruit somewhere on your page!

AND just found a totally new challenge blog - Pile it On - where the theory is to create cards, scrapbook pages or even altered items using MORE THAN ONE challenge! How perfect is this concept?? Its about time! Their current challenge is to use at lease 3 embellishments and then of course, to combine other challenges when completing your layout!

Materials Used:

Patterned Paper: row of icons (Heidi Grace Designs)
Patterned Paper: Berry Sweet Collection (K & Co)
Chipboard Stickers: Berry Sweet Collection (K & Co)
Black Cardstock
Gel Excel Black Journaling pen (Marvy)
Alpha stickers: Offbeat/Nanoset (Basic Grey)
Paper Trimmer: 12 inch portable trimmer (Fiskars)
