MOMENTS...

Happy humpday! It's a rainy day here in the desert and I have the day off from work so I took the time to join along with the October Prima Product Picks challenge:
I was inspired to create a layout featuring a Halloween photo of Meredith and Gretchen that was taken about 7 years ago all dressed up ready to go trick-or-treating:

To create this layout, I layered fun paper from the Prima Cartographer collection, added lots of texture using a Prima stencil. Once dry, I added splashes of orange, green, purple inks:
I embellished with various Prima flowers and Prima die cuts including a doily and leaves:
I adhered sparkly Prima crystals to a few of the flower centers:
For the title, I used a Prima Vintage Trinket:
For sketch inspiration, I joined along with Let's Get Sketchy sketch challenge:
Thanks so much for stopping by ~ I hope you have a great day / evening!
Be Sweet ;)
