I've been wanting to do a scrapbook page with the gorgeous stamp set Razzle Dazzle since I first saw it. Today was the day!
My layout was inspired by the Just Add Ink Challenge this week – a sketch and Nicole McMurtrie, one of the Design Team there. I loved her colours and of course, the stamp set really appeals, too.
As you can work out, I've turned the sketch on the side and used the partial circle as a journaling spot rather than the focal image. The hardest part was doing the lines on there, but my 11 year old daughter helped me with that. :) The Circle Scissors make it super easy to whip out a couple of nesting circles.
I stamped the Razzle Dazzle big flower down the side of the Textured Baja Breeze, and it came out a bit antiqued looking due to the texture on the cardstock. I added a bit of white gel pen accents to bring them out and to repeat the dots along the ribbon.
I just LOVE the Real Red Polka Dot ribbon! I have a little fetish for ladybugs, though, so this is just my thing.
The right hand side of the layout is actually a piece of acetate stamped in Cotton White Staz-On and laid over top of the Baja Breeze. The title words are also in the Razzle Dazzle set and also stamped in White Staz-on directly onto the photo. Worked great!

They are great colours aren’t they Jacque….I looked at Nicole’s card and thought the same. I see you’ve used the same ribbon too which really makes it all pop. Beautiful – just like your girls. Chantell xx

Gorgeous! I loved Nicole’s version too – I wouldn’t have thought to put Baja Breeze and Real Red together, but don’t they look amazing together?! I really like the way you’ve used the layout, and that bow is so sweet! And your daughter looks adorable too!

This is a clever take on the sketch. What a beautiful scrap book page of your little cuties! My red ribbon only arrived last week. Dying to use it!

It took me a while to work out how to fit a circle onto a
page. . . seems simple now, but it was a mental hurdle for me at first! Thanks
for your comments Bronwyn!
