Layout by Nicole Doiron - Sketch #306

Hello!  Nicole here, and it's my turn to showcase my take on sketch #306! 

It's a bittersweet post as it's my last post on the Creative Scrappers blog

as my term on the DT is up.  What a wonderful time I've had creating 

with Kristine's fabulous sketches and alongside an amazing group of ladies!

Here's a reminder of sketch #306:

... and here is my take:

I wanted to go bright and happy for this layout, in celebration of Spring 

which is finally here, and which means that Summer is just around the corner!  

Using a combination of ScrapBerry's Tropics and Mediterranean Dreams collections, 

I was able to create a very fun 'citrus-y layout to go along with this picture of me 

taken 12 years ago on an orange/grapefruit-picking excursion in Orlando, Florida.

I found that the rectangle shapes on the sketch allowed me to play

with different patterned papers and were perfect to do some handmade stitching.

Life is good & sweet, indeed!

I hope I have inspired you to take part in the May challenge

and share with us your take on Creative Scrappers' sketch #306!
