Paper Quilling, Scrapbooking, Stamping and More

Here is my entry:

Not sure why I decide to take this challenge- very unlike me to get it together enough to finish a layout and actually enter something
I am still bitter about not winning anything in the Spellbinders die cut contest last month.

There is still time to enter Contest by Scrapbboks,etc . Idea is to Scraplift a page layout with your own twist. They have had 10 contest- one each week. Ahh- know I know why I entered- it was a contest over 10 weeks I entered the last contest on the LAST day.

Here is the original photo they want you to scraplift from:

I am quite happy with result- it is one of my favourite photos of my kids and I like the way layout turned out. I used Basic Grey Euphoria Papers, lots of die cuts and letter from my Quickutz Silhouette machine and got pretty crafty with inks and paints.
I absolutely ADORE this line of paper. Never thought I would get excited about plum and ice blue together but it works for me!

I kept curved lines at top from original layout. Instead of felt boats I used 3 other elements : pieced flowers, flourish and tag/journaling . Instead of stitching along paper edge I used small flowers to accent.
Changed title words and used paper instead of chipboard.
