this week's sketch over at scrapbook challenges is by your truly! we all pitched in to help Pamela with some sketches for a couple of challenges! what a great opportunity to become even more involved with this fabulous group. head over to scrapbook challenges to see the sketch as well as the fabulous layouts by the other DT girls. just a reminder that you can play along with all the weekly challenges and become a winner of some awesome goodies!

and here are some close-ups. my title and journaling covers my flight instructor in this photo.

i added some sewing around the edges of my circles for texture. then as i was looking for something else i came across the lonely strip of kaisercraft pearls from way back when and added them right across the circles...and loved it!

i cut out some of the flowers from a piece of Webster's pages. i am a great fan of cut-out flowers and elements...BUT when others do it! i on the other hand hate the intricate cutting of things. however i did attempt it here and love the look. they were popped using foam dots for dimension and the edges inked to hide the 'white' cutting edges.

...i am still convinced that no matter what you scrap with Webster's pages it works! and in my opinion a girl can never have too much patterned papers...especially new ones. thanks for popping in - hope you all have a wonderful week.
