2013-July-Scraptastic-Sketc_grande

I suspect I’ll receive my August kits this week, so I’ve been using up the scraps from my July kits like a madwoman.  Today I have another beach themed layout to share with you.

I used this sketch from the Scraptastic Sketch Challenge for July:

Scraptastic Sketch by Susan Stringfellow

I turned the sketch 90 degree counterclockwise for this layout:

This one features mostly goodies from the Rock Lobster kit, along with Thickers from the Out on the Town add-on.

The sun brad was perfect for this card

This cut out heart and sentiment with a brad made a great embellie to layer over the vellum

These green Thickers (called Basics) were from the Out on the Town add on
Here is the process video which shows how this one came together from start to finish:
Mercy Tiara

Mercy Tiara

You may be wondering who is Mercy Tiara, and why the name? MercyTiara is an anagram of my first and middle names, Tracy Marie. I discovered this name in the 90's in grad school when we were all coming up with alter egos for one another in a lab one day. I've used it ever since, but you can call me Tracy or MercyTiara, or anything you want... just don't call me late for supper!
