Pagemaps sketch contest for Basicgrey Capture

Hola peeps, today I have a really lighthearted layout to show.  As always, Pagemaps was awesome inspiration for me.  I swear the best layouts I've created are because of their sketches.  Of course, the prizes are great motivation too.  One day I'm going to win one!!

So here is the sketch I had to work with:












So I shouldn't work so late at night, but that's when I usually have my free time, so I made a bit of an oopsie. The hideaway journaling card should be on the right, but I glued down the wrong side so mine is on the left.  hehehe.  and I cut my striped paper the wrong way, but it still turned out great, IMO:

I used my cricut to cut out a circle frame that says "Oh happy day".  I originally had that cut for a card, but I didn't need it, so this was a perfect use.  And the mat that the pics are on are embossed with my cuttlebug.  It needed a little extra something, and that was it. :)

Love the title, I have little word stickers from MME. 

I always seem to use a mix of supplies.  This is an MME/SEI mixture.  Oh and can you see I stitched the flag strip?  My first time using a sewing machine for stitching!  I don't have thick enough thread, but I was so happy with the result even with the thin thread I had.  And I haven't used a sewing machine since middle school, so I had to get a refresher lesson from my mom. haha.

Off to sleep.  I actually had time to do some scrapbooking earlier today so I think I'm calling it an early night tonight.
