Construction Zone

This layout was inspired by a sketch from Stuck?! Sketches.  It's been a while since I joined in over there, but this sketch (with some liberal tweaking on my part) was just right for the photographs:




I included some altered chipboard for the challenge at Mystical Scrapbooks cybercrop.  I cut the frame in half, then heat embossed with glitter embossing powder:



This layout was also inspired by Another Freaking Scrappy Challenge with their June Tools theme.  I put aside my pile of travel photographs and searched out some photographs of my husband working at home in the yard.  He uses all kinds of power tools in his projects, but for this one it was back to the old trenching tool while laying the foundations for the new duck enclosure.

Materials:
October Afternoon Sasparilla - Gold Rush patterned paper
Websters Pages Allison Kreft - Recorded patterned paper
Vintage book paper
Pebbles roller stamp
CTMH Black dye ink
Chipboard frame - prize RAK from many years ago
Punched butterflies - prize RAK from many years ago
Gel-a-tins Gelly Powder - Northern Lights blue glitter
MFT Die-namics - Little Letters alphabet dies
FWAB Rhinestones - Silver
Spanner charm - prize RAK from Scrapbook Fantasies
