Use Your Stuff #173 - Circles

Every Monday someone from the creative team would post a challenge that we hope will inspire you to use your stash to create. Your creation could be anything, layout, card, tag, decor item etc. Just link up! 

The theme this week is Circles. I love this stash of back to school papers. Tonnes of the circles at the background patterned paper and that sticker of graduation hat with dotted circle border. That should do it for a little man's kindy graduation card.

Let's Scrap DT Challenge #192 (8-22-14)

Here's my take for the BINGO challenge hosted by Susanna at Let's Scrap.  One of the prerequisite is to use sketch # 3-3-10. I chose the vertical column of 2 pictures, stamping, Numbers and no patterned paper. This is a photo of the boys years ago, reading and messing up the books at the same time. This is definitely not the worst scene but nonetheless, love that toothy smile from #1. Also for this challenge I had incorporated Tutorial #4 and Tutorial #57 incorporate gesso to create a lighter tone in the image and free hand doodling around the lighten gesso area. You only need to have ONE tutorial, not two! Come play along and have fun at Let's Scrap!
