Remember Today.

I first heard about Creative Scrappers on facebook over the summer, and then subsequently on Instagram.  I had been meaning to try their layout challenges, but have not given myself time.

Today, after hubby came home from work, I treated myself to a few hours of just "FUN" scrapping, as opposed to "Must Finish This" crafting.  I loved making this layout and I think it has sparked an interest in 12x12 scrapbooking again.

 

The collection I used is by Echo Park "A Boy's Life".  A pretty old collection, but perfect for what I wanted to create.  I added lots of wood veneers, punched pieces and enamel dots.  The black chevron/arrows were too dark, so I used a white gel pen to add a little dimension and contrast.  The layout is simple, but very busy at the same time.

I'm excited for next month's challenge and I encourage you to join us.  Dust off your hoarded collections and start cutting into them.  You won't regret it!

I promise!
