Guest designer for TPV!!

Good morning! I am SO excited today because I get to share a layout with you that I did as a guest designer for The Paper Variety! The first challenge for February is an awesome sketch creating by one of TPV's co-founders, Abby...










Supplies: Crate Paper Paper Heart Paper - Love Letter, Define, Cupid; Colorbox Chalk Ink - Rose Coral; Craft Smart Ink - Chocolate Brown; Studio Calico Mister Huey - Classic Calico; Ali Edwards Stamp Set - Beautiful; Papertrey Ink Stamp Set - Happy Trails; EK Success Double Heart Punch; Fiskars Flit On By Punch; Bella Blvd. Ciao Chip Sophisticates Alphabet - Simply Simona Saltwater; Elle's Studio Pink Pennant; My Mind's Eye Brads; Bazzill Flower; CK Alis Hand Font

I absolutely LOVE this layout!! When I saw the sketch, I was inspired by the strips of paper across the page and the embellishment cluster in the top right corner. I started with those things and went from there and it just came together so easliy! I decided to use the pops of blue against all the pink and red, and really like how it looks. So fun! ;)

So what do you think of the sketch? If you decide to play along and create a project of your own, you'll be entered to win this great prize, sponsored by My Scraps & More...





How fun is that?? Also, Abby added a $10 gift certificate to My Scraps & More to this prize because she loves to shop there! Very cool. ;) You have until 2/13 at midnight EST to link up your project and be in the drawing. Good luck to everyone who enters...I can't wait to see all the entries!

Thanks for stopping by today and thank you again to Abby and Suzanne for inviting be to be a guest designer!
