I was looking for a creative spark and once again Shimelle came to the rescue with her latest starting point. I had an unopened kit from Studio Calico gathering dust so I pulled it out, followed Shimelle's steps and came up with this.
I pulled out the papers I really liked and didn't hesitate to cut them up and put them to use. The background paper is from Dear Lizzy as is the yellow heart strip and the stripey paper. The grey wave paper is a Studio Calico piece. In lieu of the ink splatters suggested by Shimelle I went for gold sequins instead. The doily die cut is from Crate Paper's new The Pier line and the other loved card is from Dear Lizzy.
The photo is an Origrami print from our trip to Bangkok earlier in the year. I love that the colours in the stripey paper echo the colours on Scarlett's leggings in the photo. It really is the small things that make me happy.

Brave move indeed! Cutting those 12*12 is not easy:) I think that's one of the reasons I love 6*6 pads... Who knew scrapbooking could be sometimes intimidating?? Cute layout! Love all that blue in the Lucky Charm collection.
