For this challenge, you will need to create a layout inspired by this Saturday Cartoon. You must use include the color orange as well as use a scrapbook supply item for each of the letters in the word CASPER on your layout.  The sketch for this challenge is shown below.

I signed up for Nicole Jones 911 Scrap-A-Thon 4 which started on October 1st and the 1st day’s prompt was to use chalk. So, I decided that I could combine the two challenges since I needed to use a craft room supply that started with the letter “C”. In addition to the chalk, I used the following:

C = Chalk
A = Alphas
S = Stencil
P = Punch
E = Enamel Dots
R = Ribbon

I looked through my paper pads and decided to use the Maggie Holmes Chasing Dreams collection. There was a floral paper that had light orange, pink, teal and dark green that I thought went well with the pictures that I had chosen for my layout. I also selected a tone on tone pink patterned paper from the same paper pad. I fussy cut some of the florals as well as some butterflies from another paper from this paper pad.

I used some green ribbon and gold washi to accent the patterned paper. I also used gold puffy stickers from Pink Fresh Studio Simple & Sweet for my title. I added some finishing touches with gold enamel dots and gold hearts.

Here are some close-ups of this layout.

The pictures used in this layout were taken while we were celebrating my Mom’s 70th birthday at Nottoway Plantation in 2013.

Here’s a full picture of my layout.  

It’s so much fun to get inspiration from a sketch. I hope that you join in on this month’s challenge over at Scrap Our Stash BlogSpot.
