Sisters & Friends

Supplies:  Paper (Best Creation Inc.), Handmade Buttons & Flowers (Purple Pumpkin Designs), Wood Art (K & Company), Journaling Sprout & Letters (Jillibean Soup), Die (Spellbinders), Twine (The Twinery), Date Samp

This page was based on the May sketch over on the Purple Pumpkin Blog.  I gave the sketch a little twist to accommodate a portrait photo.  That's the great thing about sketches;  they are so versatile.
I used Best Creation's "I love America" line for this page.  I took the die cut and removed the themed outside edge leaving me with the red and white star border only.  This allowed me to adapt the line to a more generic page.


I paired this line with the Boat Kit by Purple Pumpkin Designs.  The blues and reds pair beautifully with this line.


As you can see, I still have plenty left over for some boating pages this summer.  If you have yet to discover all the handmade goodies at Purple Pumpkin, I urge you to pay them a visit.  You'll be glad you did.

I'll leave you with that for today.  Thanks so much for visiting.
