My Sis & Me

Over at Skrap 'n Chat, Karen challenged us to use no patterned paper or pre-made embellies.  We could use stamps, mists, border punches, anything to make our own patterned paper.  I didn't make my own patterned paper but I did break out the stamps to help me with this layout.

The green border is a stamp from a sentiments stamp sert from Close To My Heart.  I hadn't ever used it on only part of the page so I made some boo-boos with the ink going over where I wanted it to, but I figured out what I needed to do after a couple times.


All these little bugs are stamps from Close To My Heart.  They are just so darn cute but they are so darn tough to cut around, especially the antennae.




The little flourishes here are stamps from the same set:


Here, I wanted to add something with how long K's legs look, especially compared to teeny tiny A.  So, out came the Stickles.

Great job Dana! Next time cut the antennas off and stitch them onto the background paper instead. So much easier :D
