Click here to see the original June Sketch Challenge post and enter for your chance to win some free scrappy goodies woohoo! Here is the sketch that was designed by your truly this month...

I really wanted to create a layout with lots of flowers for this challenge because hey it's what I do LOL, but I decided to fussy cut out lots of this gorgeous Websters Pages papers elements and layer them together to make my cluster.

The papers that I have used are from the Websters Pages Growing Up Girl Collection and is available for purchase over on the Mad About Scrappin Facebook Page here.

The background paper has some subtle masking adding using some Modelling Paste and The Crafter's Workshop Tiny Dots Stencil. I have used Modelling paste so that the beautiful background pattern is not hidden too much.

So much fussy cutting on this layout it was such a stress reliever to cut all these beautiful elements. Websters Pages has always had the best fussy cut possibilities I just love their papers so much.

Products available from Mad About Scrappin include...

Amy Prior's May Sketch Challenge Example

Hi everyone! Hope you are all well. Amy Prior back again today to share my example layout for the May Sketch Challenge here at Mad About Scrappin. Click here to view the original blog post with all the DT amazing examples. Here is the fabulous sketch this month designed by Crece Thomas...

...and here is my example layout featuring lots of gorgeous products available from Mad About Scrappin.

My background is made with 12x12 Textured White Cardstock from Mad About Scrappin and I have added some new Dylusions Jade Mist to the background.

Instead of misting the background directly, I have misted my Non Stick Craft Mat with some Dylusions and Water and then stamped my paper onto the mat to get this fun pooled blotchy effect.

I have fussy cut lots of the gorgeous flowers and circles from the Teresa Collins Daily Stories Collection as well as used lots of this range of paper in my photo mat layers.

I have used lots of stickers from the Teresa Collins Daily Stories Collection also and all my paper and stickers were distressed on the edges to help break the patterns up a little. Inking and distressing the edges of paper is always a great idea when you want to combine lots of over-powering patterns together like this.
