Anniversary Recipe Challenge

To continue the celebration, let's have some fun and do "RECIPE CHALLENGE with a TWIST". All you need to do is create a page with the following  five  things :

  1. Two or three photos of any kind of celebration, could be birthday, Christmas, anniversary, retirement, valentines, fun day at school, any celebration
  2. Twine, string or floss
  3. Stitching (machine,hand, rub-on, or faux)
  4. Atleast one button or brad
  5. Pen or marker
TWIST - scraplift one of my layout posted in my blog! *big smile* sorry guys, it's my challenge *winks*. Maybe a couple of inspiration from my page will do. It maybe the color, technique, design, using scraps, elements I used or anything that inspire you (hope there is something) *wishful thinking*.

 You do not have to use the Twist on your layout, if you feel it doesn't fit with your page.

Nanaimo Visit 2012

Instead of double pager layout, I decided to try different approach for this one. I honestly don't know how to call this  but my inspiration is from a wedding invitation.

 
 My page :
 
 
 
 
 
 
Cover
 
I used this --->
 
as my stencil.This is actually from pizza box. Instead of putting the pizza directly on the box, our favorite pizza parlor use this to keep the pizza crust "crispy". Mist with Dylusion ink - lemon zest and cut grass color. Twine and wooden buttons - Michaels; chipboard letter - Basic Grey 
 

 
 
 
 
I used masking tape to attach sides patterned paper, doodled dots and lines to get "spiral notebook" effect.
