First 2 layouts.

 I used this sketch for the first layout.


Christine added it in the December challenges and it suited these photos.
Here's my interpretation of it.



The background blue cardstock was embossed with Seasons Greetings etc. I've had it for years and never used it. The seond blue paper had wedding written down one side. I tore that off and used it across the layout.

The plaid paper worked well and stood out across the blue. I had a packet of bling hands which I put as junctions on the plaids. Also from my kit I had a small card saying good job and a sticker of a lady with hair wrapped in a towel. Both suited the theme.

My second layout is for a photo of 4 friends.
I used a pink floral from my kit. As another layer I cut the centre circle from a black doiley.
These 2 pink papers are from Kaisercraft Summer Breeze collection.

I added a green star from charms creations and a sticker of a phone. The journal card is and old one I had from Prima St Tropez collection. I also used some wood veneers that came in a pack as a prize.
