Sketch Thursday

EllesStudio-Sketch-08-06-2015Good Morning! This is Melissa here this morning with my take on this fabulous sketch! The original layout was created by Lisa Dickinson and she has such a classic scrapping style that I love.

August_MLM1I stuck to the sketch pretty closely. I used pattern paper for the top and bottom squares and used a 4×6 picture and a 4×6 Elle’s Studio Journaling card from the August 2015 kit (available August 10th) in between the pattern paper blocks. Before I stitched down all the blocks on the left hand side of the base, I spritzed some mist all over and let it dry. I stitched down the blocks of paper, tag, and picture using my sewing machine. My title “eat well” was cut out using my Silhouette Cameo and this was also stitched down. I sprinkled some enamel dots and small stars on either side of the blocks of paper and stitched the “Good Eats” digital cut over the top of my picture.
