Happy 4th of July

What better way to celebrate the fourth than share a scrapbook page with my friends. I completed this page for a pagemaps challenge. I followed a sketch illustrated by Becky Fleck. I find the pagemaps blog is an excellent place to get inspiration when scrapbooking block acts up.

I took this picture of my layout in the evening so it's darker than I would like.  For this page, I used glitter ribbon, cardstock, smooch spray, patterened paper and a Paper pretties sentiment, Dreams.  The kite shape was printed on my computer and then I used that as a template to make the kites you see.  The sun and clouds are SU stamp sets.  I found the grapes and the smoke from circus train are perfect as clouds once they are embossed.  Whatever works, right!   


I hope you enjoy the page.  Have a great day!!!   Delia
