life.paper.scrapbook september sketch: insta-mail love

The Camp Paper Scissors weekend has come and gone, so it's time to post up some of the layouts I finished.

Below is from one of the scrap challenges: we were to make a layout based on the Life.Paper.Scrapbook September Sketch.

I took the sketch and turned it on its side.

I always love messy layering, and it was a lot of fun tucking random bits of paper, doily and washi tape under each other.

It was only when I was nearly done that I decided to cut the kraft paper down and put it on an turquoise cardstock so I have small border. Of course now that I look at it, I wish I hadn't cut off so much of the kraft, but then that's a lesson for me.

My final touch was actually to stamp and then cut out the image of an envelope with a love heart seal. I actually won this stamp set during the Camp Paper Scissors raffle, and it's just so cute!
