Upward's

Using the "B" sides of two of my patterned papers from my Pie in the Sky kit, a couple very old Creative Memories paper pieced elements, buttons from my kit, an added star and alphabets and the solid yellow and dotted blue papers from my kit, I created the above layout based on a Sketches in Thyme sketch.  I stitched around the circle and the photograph but otherwise kept this layout fairly simple.  The reason for this was because I loved the base sheet of patterned paper.  The black and white patterns would even trick my eyes into thinking there was movement on the page when I glazed my eyes upon it.  
Hope that you have a wonderful day!! Be blessed!

  10. Love the bold colors on this page. Perfect for a boy page. Great to use the B sides even if they weren't originally intended when you showcased your kit. I do that often!
