chelle came over yesterday and i got a lot of scrappies done! this layout is based on a previous blog entry with the same title. i REALLY have to get back to regular blogging. it's so nice to just copy my journaling straight from my blog. sigh.
this is one more layout with the may kits which brings my grand total up to seven with that month. not bad!
i simply adore that yellow daisy paper. i've now used it on four of those seven layouts and still have a 4x6 inch scrap of it that i'm hoarding.
please let me know if you have any questionsn about what i did on this one. i'd be happy to answer them. mainly i just started layout down bits from the kit that i liked with leftover scrap papers onto grey cardstock. i then painted a thin layer of gesso over everything and when that was dry i went stitch happy with my sewing machine. :)
Love your handwriting and all of the little bits and pieces, Doris!

This is gorgeous! I don't think you had the yellow yarn writing when I was there. Did you sew it or glue it?
