One year old

This layout is for the Walk Down Memory Lane design team blog sketch challenge (that's a mouthful!). I pretty much followed the sketch exactly. I cut the petals out freehand and then stitched around the edges. The patterned paper is from My Mind's Eye. The darkest cardstock is KI Memories, the medium pink cardstock is Bazzill and the lightest cardstock (journaling strips) is Stampin Up. The flower center is a die cut shape from My Mind's Eye (it was all one set of paper and elements). The letters and number are cut from the Plantin Schoolbook cricut cartridge. I cut the number 1 from thin chipboard using my new deep cut blade. The scallops are just circles that are partly under the strip of patterned paper. Click on the picture to see it bigger but be warned, it is pretty big (about 150 kb).
