Moving Up - SOUS Diecut Challenge "Stars"

Hello there!

It's been a busy couple of weeks around here. Hockey season has officially begun. And my 16 year old son has moved two hours away to play Junior B hockey. We have been on the road to watch games and to see him A LOT! But we are proud and excited for him at this new stage.

So in honour of hockey season, I figured what better way to use this week's Stuck On U Sketches diecut challenge of "Stars" than to do a hockey layout. Now, if you've read my blog for a while, you know how I don't like doing hockey pages. And this one, is using photos that are almost a year old. So, since Nick's on a new team, I figured I better get these photos scrapped.


Papers, Die cuts & Embellishments: Teresa Collins; Cardstock: Bazzill Basics; Cricut Cartridge: George, Base Camp; Stickers: My Minds Eye, Simple Stories; Printable Tab: Two Peas in a Bucket Digital; Metallic watercolours


Using Design Studio and my Cricut, I cut the little stars in the Teresa Collins chalkboard paper, sprinkled it with metallic water colours, sewed around the edge with metallic gold thread, then mounted it on dimensional adhesive to give the shadowed look. The journaling card between the photos is also adhered with popdots. It's a very dimensional page and it looks so much better in real life! :)


Be sure to check out the SOUS blog and check out the beautiful creations that the very fabulous design team has on display there.

Thanks for looking!
