Happy NSD & a new layout!

Happy National Scrapbooking Day - weekend!  The big day is actually tomorrow - - but the festivities begin now, lol!     Wish I could be taking part in all the fun challenges happening around the web this weekend but family duties call.  

I'll leave you with some scrappy inspiration in the form of a new 2 page layout.   Used a fantastic sketch from an Sketches for Scrapbooking Volume 8.    I played along with the Scrap Your Stash Patterned Paper Party challenge which is to use 3 or more different patterned papers from 3 or more different collections.   My layout has 7 different patterned papers from 3 different CTMH collections.   Woohoo! Love using up that stash!




When I first created the layout for the challenge, I had missed the added requirement to use rub-ons, so after taking my initial photos above, I added three little rub-on sentiments to my layout so that I could play along, lol!   Sorry for the photo - - terrible lighting!:


Materials Used:
CTMH paper packs:  Splendour, Footloose, Elemental (retired)
CTMH Footloose dimensional chipboard elements
CTMH stamp sets:  Charm Uppercase & Tiny Typewriter
CTMH Rub-Ons 
Cardstock: CTMH White Daisy
Ink: CTMH Lagoon, Sweet Leaf & New England Ivy

Have a great weekend!
