Sketches In Thyme - Sketch #265

In this post, I'm sharing a page created with Sketch #265 from Sketches In Thyme!

For the title on this page, I turned to my stash of chipboard letters! Need to remember to use these more often -- it's always fund to dump them out of the bag and find the right mix of patterns.

This past week my husband was looking for something in the basement when he found a zip lock bag stuffed full of 8x8 papers/pads. Innocently, I told him I'd been looking all over for it -- but honestly, I'd forgotten I even had this stash. So, it was almost like getting NEW paper. LOL! I wasted no time putting some of this 8x8 paper stash to work in the background layers of this layout. 

I'm a fan of keeping ANY scrap that might be useful later...You know the strips of paper (with paper company name and bar code) that you cut off your 12x12 papers? Well, a couple of these strips were perfect for making the candles on this page! The "flames" were created with the help of some "Stickles." Aren't they cute?!

I've saved these "epoxy" embellies in my stash for a number of years and I thought they were perfect for this page. So, I finally used them!! 

Until next time, happy scrap booking and paper crafting!
