For my layout I chose to use one of the downloads available in SG's online store.  I used this one and stayed pretty close to the original sketch for my pages.  I love that you can purchase individual sketches, or in this case a double set, for only $0.99.  Can't beat that price!

For some reason I really struggled with my paper choice with these.  But I went with it and stuck through to the end.  I lucked out and discovered that when I bought the papers (an older My Mind's Eye collection) I had also purchased the label stickers and the decorative brads.  Here's the entire two page spread.

 

Sorry for the bad light - I finished just after the sun went down.  Since I only have a few sets of thickers I quickly realized that what I do have, was not going to work for my title like I was planning.  So I downloaded a free font and cut it out twice on my Cameo and made my own "thickers".  The title is actually a quote from Winnie the Pooh I found online.  I was not able to think of anything cute on my own, so I borrowed from a silly old bear! 

Here's some close ups of the details:

Be sure to check out the next blog on the list -Brenda, leave a comment on each blog and one lucky commenter will receive a free sketch bundle of their choice from the store. The winner will be draw on June 10th, so you have one week to leave a comment.

Thanks for stopping by!
