Sketch | Rachel Lowe | Happy Days

Hello Clique friends Rachel here! The sketch this month from Clique Kits was just fabulous and I had to create with it!

And here is my take using my gorgeous July kit Regatta. I really wanted to use the ice cream exclusive CK July cut file and to incorporate it I cut mine in half so I could use them in either side of my layout. Now who doesn't love Flamingos!!!!! Each season I buy a new swim suite and this year its this one (my photo) and yes it is covered in Flamingos. I wanted to create a subtle layout so I chose the pinks and blues from the kits paper and embellishments.

I kept my ice cream cones cut file white on white only adding to 'ice cream scoops' from the flamingo paper, I did not want my layout to look too busy. I added embellishments and word sentiments instead to ensile they didn't get lost against my white card stock.

​This sketch certainly lets you have a lot of fun using your embellishments, the suede bows just too cute not to use! To add height to my layout I have used foam tape on some of my embellishments

I really didn't want to scrap another photo of one of us at the beach or at the pool so in choosing to scrap my new swim suit it allows you to move your focus from those related elements and head somewhere else creatively.  

Thank you for stopping by today and having a look at my take on the CK sketch. 
See you again soon!
