Laura Whitaker designs some amazing sketches. Here is the fabulous sketch I worked with:

and I was given the My Creative Scrapbook September Creative Kit. I love this kit so much. I love the colors and all the beautiful papers, stickers and embellishments that scream Fall.

September Creative Kit - My Creative Scrapbook

 I tried to be somewhat true to the sketch but flipped it a bit by placing the photo on the left side of the page. I matted my photo on some striped paper so it would stand out from the brown chevron background paper and added some paper strips and a border strip behind the photo.

I added some pieces from the ephemera pack that comes with the kit to the left hand side and added a foam dot to the "Fall Is In The Air" ephemera piece to add some dimension. Gold sequins were included in the kit so I sprinkled a few around the page in a visual triangle to lead the eyes around the page.

I also added the ephemera piece "falling for you" to the right side of the photo and popped it up with a foam dot for dimension as well.

The kit also included some really cute gold acetate words from Heidi Swapp so I added the word "fabulous" for part of the title as well as the cardstock sticker  "Fall".  The plaid tree and cute little pickup truck were also added in a cluster with some pop dots for dimension.

Next up on the hop is the talented Ashley Smith. I'm sure she will have something gorgeous to share with you. 

Be sure and check out Stuck?! Sketches for lots of sketch inspiration and also check out the monthly kits at My Creative Scrapbook.  Have a wonderful day!
