I wanna say Cheese!

Supplies : Paper by Scenic Route; Ink, Cardstock, and Classmates Alpha stamp set by CTMH; Thickers letter stickers and ribbon by American Crafts; Waxy Flax; Buttons open stock at LSS; Scallop Nesties

Same sketch - totally different look. I loved that #26 sketch so much that right after finishing yesterday's layout, I created this one only I broke out from my basic grey roll. Over the past year Basic Grey has easily won out as my favorite paper company closely followed by Scenic Route which is what these papers are. Though I do have to admit I hoard my basic grey a lot more than any of my other papers. I started with these fun fall papers to go with Audrey's little camera ham pictures and then created these blossoms with the scallop nesties and prima flowers. The inspiration for these were from an item Sparkle had on her etsy months ago. They aren't there anymore but I do remember noticing some little flower button blooms on her etsy shop link and even in passing I thought it was such a cute idea. Once I got my own nesties and saw the tiny scallop circle I instantly remembered the little blossoms and had to make my own! Some ribbon posing as leaves finishes off the blooms perfectly. The journaling is simply about how Audrey is a camera ham. "I wanna say Cheese!" is her way of saying take a picture of me, Mom! Thanks for stopping by and have a super Friday!

This is so darling and I love the fallish colors!

I'm a slow stitcher/sewer too, so I haven't had the patience lately to make more, but I love how yours turned out! And they match perfectly.
