Welcome to the  Ink & Share Scrapbook blog hop,  we are  group of international Stampin UP! demonstrators sharing our ideas and creativity with you.

You will have either arrived from Heike’s post or starting here ~ either way WELCOME.  This month’s theme is a Sketch, where we are provided a layout and we interpret it in our own style

Once again I have chosen to use a 12 x 12 page – mainly because Stampin’ UP! has 12 x 12 card stock in all its colors which gives me a fantastic choice

I wanted to use the stunningly beautiful Expressions in Ink Designer Series Paper, I love the way the new In-colors come together and then the gold foiling on top – absolutely divine!

So as not to overwhelm the decorative paper I chose to use Basic Grey as my base then added Basic White and Basic Black card as my contrasts. The Basic White panel measures 8 1/2 x 5 1/2, if you look very closely you will see I used one of the Plenty of Patterns Decorative Masks and my Blending Brush to add some Soft Succulent, Polished Pink and Pale Papaya ink.

Each of the black panels measure 5 x 5 and this will be where I place my photographs. The banners are cut from the Expressions in Ink DSP – I cut the tails using the Tailored Tag Punch. The dragonflies are also cut from the DSP using the Dragonflies Punch/ My title is from the Create With Friends Stamp Set, I simply stamped it onto a piece of Basic White Card then trimmed it to fit – it ended up 4 1/2 x 1 3/8.

A final scattering of the pretty and delicate Loose Flower Flourishes and I am done 🙂
