Elle's Studio "Everyday Moments" and Stuck?! Sketches!!!

Happy Sunday my fellow crafters!!! It's a beautiful day here today... Hoping this weather stays for a while :-)

I'm here today with the fabulous new Elle's Studio "Everyday Moments" collection from Frosted Designs.  This collection is AMAZING!!!!  I also stumbled across a new sketch site recently called "Stuck?!" and I just LOVE working with their sketches!!!  Scrap Our Stash is also hosting a "S.W.A.K" (Stitching, Washi, Arrows, Kraft) challenge this month so I made sure to incorporate these items on my page!!!

Here's the first sketch of the month:

And here is a layout I made:

Isn't this collection just awesome?!?

I had this wonderful photo of my girls at the park a few weeks back.  It was the perfect photo for this challenge!!!

I started by using Dylusions Black mists to create the background effect.  Then I layered my papers following the sketch.  I used my white gel pen from the February Kit at Frosted Designs and created "faux" stitching around the photo mat.  I also had some Studio Calico wooden arrows that I covered with coordinating paper from the collection and added to the page.

I used Kraft paper from the collection, as well as kraft paper embellies and kraft sticker letters.  I also had red, white, and blue washi tape that coordinated perfectly with the paper!

I made homemade bling using my perfect pearls and a rosette topped with an AC "Flea Market" resin flower from the Frosted Designs Store.

I finished the page with Elle's Studio wooden veneers that were misted with LSG Starburst pears.

Well gang...  Thanks so much for stopping in and have a LUCKY day :-)
