Zach ~ One Cool Dude

Hi everyone!!  I hope you're staying cool this summer.  Here in Texas we had 109 degrees yesterday and 106 degrees today!!!!  Way too hot to do anything outdoors.. But I still have to check on the cows to make sure the floats in their water tanks are working.  By the time I walk around over there and head back home I'm soaking wet and you can wring my hair out!!  I hate that!!!

Anyway, I've been checking out the Flying Unicorn site out and they have Mojo Monday every week and you use their sketch..  Well, they have some beautiful ones, and I just decided to play this week...

Here's their sketch, and this one was created by Alda Stevens..

Lots of layers here...  I really wanted to make a girly layout using this sketch, but with 2 little grandsons I decided I needed to try and create a "boy" layout.. As you can see, I layered my layers a little different than the sketch...    But that's okay!

Here are a few close ups.....

Top Right...  Martha Stewart Swirling Lace Border/Corner Punches, Distressing, Gems, K&Company Butterfly, and Computer Journaling.

Bottom Right...  Martha Stewart Swirling Lace Border/Corner Punches, Gems, and Distressing, Thickers Vinyl Alphabet Stickers..

Bottom Left...  Martha Stewart Swirling Lace Border/Corner Punches, Gems, Distressing, Misc Sticker Letters/Numbers, Recollections - Flowers, and Sizzix Vine Die..

Creative Inspirations ~ Anything Goes

Oldie But A Goodie Challenge ~ Summer Holiday (And use something at least 6 months old --  My SU Patterned Papers are a couple of years old)
