I missed the original Lasting Memories post on Sunday due to a crazy weekend with my son's graduation and his party, my birthday, plus entertaining out of town guests, and then my other son was baptized on Sunday! I'm just starting to catch my breath again and managed to put together this layout using the first challenge for June. Each weekly challenge features a summer themed word, and we need to add an item for each letter. For this week's word, WARMER, I used the following list:
W - washi tape
A - arrow
R - red patterned paper
M - mixed media (used texture paste and a stencil to do the stars in the corner)
E - enamel stars
R - rub-on (XOXOXO)
If you love word play and scrapbooking, feel free to hop on over to Lasting Memories for some inspiration before the challenges end on July 1.

Wow, what a fantastic sketch for Elliott's Birthday... full of color and fun. Love the challenge with words with each letter representing something included on your page... great challenge. And thanks for including Double Trouble's triple doggie dare using plaid/checkers and sharing with us and also including other items from the Festive Friday's Inspo List. What a great combination of challenges.

ReplyDeleteCheryl, what a fabulous layout and a wonderful way to celebrate what was obviously such a fun day! I love the way the stars travel across the page drawing your eye to those fabulous photos. The addition of the different plaids, checks, and dots works beautifully. So glad you shared this with us at Festive Friday this week
