LAYOUT WEEK 2013, DAY FOUR: Kermit's Key Lime Pie, 12"x12"

Are you having fun with Layout Week 2013 so far?

I hope so, because I have a new layout and video to share with you today!

 

This one features goodies from the Crate Paper The Pier collection.

 

 

For today's layout, I created this sketch which is perfect for combining horizontal and vertical photos:

 





Here are some photos of the finished layout:





There are a lot of bright photos in the background paper and the photos, so I used kraft cardstock and more neutral patterns in between to create some breathing room.





The ephemera pack for The Pier collection has some really fun goodies in it with gold accents and bright colors. Love those gold polka dot Thickers from the collection, too!

Layering embellishments together adds depth and texture to your page - especially if those elements have different finishes. Here we have paper, stitching and glitter.

I made these stars myself from Martha Stewart's Crafter's Clay. On this layout they look good enough to eat! They're also super strong and light as a feather.



I filmed this layout coming together for my YouTube channel. You can watch the video below, or click this link to watch it over on YouTube: Kermit's Key Lime Pie.

  

 

 

Today's Day Four of our big Layout Week 2013 celebration, and there will be a new challenge every day! Today's challenge is to use the above sketch to create a new, never before seen layout. Once you've finished it, post it below in the linking system so we can all see and admire your work!

 

Challenge closes at 11:55 p.m. Eastern USA time on Wednesday, June 26. Prize winner will be announced on Thursday, June 27, 2013.

 

This challenge's prize is offered by yours truly, and it includes the molds and clay needed to make the star embellishments I used in my layout and video above:

 

 

 

See you tomorrow with our last super fun layout, sketch and prize!
