For this challenge, you are to create your own layered embellishment.  Oh, and there is a catch! :)   You must use AT LEAST 3 items from this list:
  • Tape (any kind - wash, cotton, etc)

Here's my layout:
(I used Page Drafts Sketch via Grand Diva's Creative Corner August challenge - see below for further details)

  Here's a close up on the layered embellishment I did.
 I used Chipboard under the flower and also the star on top of the flower. I also used bright colors and used a pin with a clear star for a challenge over at Scrap-Friendzy.

Make sure you are a follower of my blog and link only your NEWLY created layout below using Mr. Linky by August 31st to have a chance to win this:

  11. Thanks as always, Rochelle, for the inspiration! Between the sketch from GCC/Page Drafts and your embellishment idea, I came up with a layout I had been stumbling on for some time.
