Friday reveal at Stuck on U Sketches!

Welcome to reveal day! I am so excited to show you what I did with this weeks sketch! I used Webster's Pages'  'Trendsetter' Collection.  I love the bright  fun colors in this collection. I took this cute photo of my GN, Madden, on the day we were having a wedding shower for my daughter.

                                                                          When you where a child did you ever pull the petals off a flower and recite  the saying " He loves, He loves me not...."?  I know I sure did! When I saw this photo I knew exactly what I was going to do! I got out my Dusty Attic stash and took out the long stemmed flower I recently got, and the circle ring as well.

   
                                                                               This weeks sketch is brought to us by our own Sandi Clarkson!  This was a really nice sketch to work with, and I had a lot of fun doing so!  I flipped the sketch to suit my photo better.

 I did some recycling on this layout.  The ribbon came from my corsage I wore at dd wedding, the daisy flowers[Prima] were on the wedding cake, and the light pink flowers I made for the sharing tree for dd wedding as well!  Feels good to be able to re use these items!

                                                                                   I created the leaves with my leaves stamp from Heartfelt creations.  First I stamped the image with Distress ink, and then I filled it in with a watered down Distress stain, layering to build up color.

                                         
                                                                                           I inked the DA circle with Distress Stain, and then covered it with Stickles.  I used Distress Crackle Paint to "white out" some of the background paper so the title would show up better.

                                                                                      I scattered petals off of one of the Prima flowers and scattered it around the layout as if they had been pulled off intentionally.

                                                                                     I used pink Smooch ink on the Dusty Attic long stem flower, and on the stem I used Distress stain and Distress Embossing powder.  To create the ruffle around the Dusty Attic circle I cut strips of pattern paper and punch along the edge with a Martha Stewart border punch.  I think gathered it and glued it behind the circle.
