Margarita time:Layout by Sue Crease.

Margarita time:Layout by Sue Crease.


Hello,
 
Today I am sharing this layout of myself and my cousin enjoying a Margarita on her front porch after a hard day of memory making.  I made it for myself but also to share here on The Mad Scrapper Blog where you can pick up your supplyies for almost any style of layout. This paper is from 49 and Market and you can find a link for it in the Supply list at the bottom of the page. 
This is a window sticker, which I have had since our first family holiday to Florida in 2008. We went to Universal Studios, not Disney, as my son was (still is) into Jaws and Terminator movies. When you arrive, you go along the walkways which have many cafes and bars and we stopped off at this one called Margaritaville and I picked up this sticker. I couldn't bring myself to stick it to a window so it has been sitting waiting for the right time to be used. I attached it to a piece of acetate and then a scrap of zesty green which allowed me to stick it down to the paper. I did trim around the image.
 

This next photo shows us sipping our drinks from mason glasses as we watched the children playing out front. The flowers are from the Pinkfresh Studio stamp, stencil and die set. This time I coloured with coral through to orange on cream cardstock. The title is another stash buster gifted from a friend.
I trimmed the main paper down to 11 inches and added it to a Simple Stories paper which I thought went well. The photo is on three mats. The first is a scrap of 49 and Market and the next two are from Bazzill card stock attached at a jaunty angle and lifted on foam pads. The snippets on the top and bottom of the photo are also 49 and Market but from older collections.
I think it all works well together on this fun layout.
Here on this last photo you can see I have added purple gems all around the layout.  Also, I have added white splashes to bring out the ones within the paper.
 
Thanks for stopping by today. I hope I have inspired you to pull out papers with one season in mind, and use them for something different. Pop in to see Janine in the store if not do as I do and shop in her online store.
Sue.
