Miss Madi ~ Elle's Studio Challenge

This week I played along with the Elle's Studio sketch challenge. It was a good one too! I love banners!

You can see the post at Elle's Studio here with the sketch.

And here's my layout using the sketch. I had to use this adorable photo of my niece, Madison. She is the subject of many of my Instagram photos and this one was so perfect I had to use it on a layout.

I wanted to keep the overall colors of the layout very light. I went with a white background and layered a white doily (Martha Stewart) along with the white hearts background cut with my Cameo.  The cut out flowers in the layers is actually an old lace paper sheet from KI Memories that I've had for a few years but you could easily do something similar on the Cameo.

I also added a bit of pink to pull the color from her dress.  That pink striped back was perfect! Some vellum added to the softness and then added my Elle's Studio tags in my banner.

I chose to type a bit of journaling on my vellum.  I've heard some others have problems typing on vellum but thankfully, mine went through perfectly!

If you want to get in on the sketch challenge at Elle's Studio, there's still time.  The deadline isn't until tomorrow night!

Have a great Wednesday!
