US... together

oh boy, this one... I got a wild hair to try something different.  for the background, I mixed light pink Making Memories paint with Tim Holtz Alcohol ink which turned into kinda old bubblegum texture goop, I spread the goop out. I smeared CloseToMyHeart Pearl Paint onto the stamp and pressed it into the bubblegum goop, rinsed it off the stamp, inked up with red ink & stamped again to give it a little color.  The image is really funky & full of texture.

I combined several challenges for this one, something I rarely do:

4th of July for a Friend

Scrapping for a friend always makes me feel good, well I have a friend who had a baby this past week so a few friends & I decided to make her a 12x12 baby book for the first year!  How fun is that?!  I used Basic Grey's sketch with MME paper (sorry but it worked for the month of July).
