Femenine and Masculine Layouts with Glitz Design

Hello everyone! I'm excited to back today to share a couple of pages I created using the beautiful new collection Vintage Blue. I adore the bold colors on this line and thought it was perfect for a grungy LO with a soft edge.

This first page you saw before as I created it using sketch #2 from My Creative Sketches sketch challenge.

I used my Big Shot to cut out some gears with chipboad and embossed them using Distress embossing powder. I also added a few flowers but since they have a newsprint design, I thought they could be somewhat manly, what do you think? Did I get away with it? LOL!

The photo here is my husband and son embracing each other. I thought that was a sweet moment to document and the tulle trim was used to add some softness to the overall feel of the page.

For my background, I used a Crafter's Workshop brick template and misted with Glimmer Mist. I love the new stamps which I added in the corner here.

For my next page, I created a more femenine design with the same collection. I wanted to show how versatile Vintage Blue can be!

I did some detailed cutting and layered the images around my photo.

Some of the cut out elements were poped up with dimentionals. I also inked the edges and stitched around my background paper.

I hope you feel inspired to work with this beautiful collection. Thanks so much for stopping by today!

Each month for 3 months beginning Sept. 17 we will provide a sketch (designed by Kim Keane) for you to create a LO. This means you will get a different Sketch in Sept., Oct., and Nov. to create a LO. There will be a different blog post for each month to load your LOs for judging. There will be 3 winners and 3 prizes each month. The first winner will be judged and chosen by the Design Team and then Pam will draw 2 random names for a prize... yes, each month. We ask that you only have one entry per month or per sketch. Everyone that creates a LOs with all 3 sketches will be eligible for another PRIZE...yes...even another PRIZE......the "GRAND" Prize....and the winner for this will be randomly drawn. BUT to qualify for the Grand prize, you must upload all 3 of your LOs on Your Blog or in the MCS contest gallery and link them here in the Link attachment on the MCS blog. Yes, the Grand Prize will be a random draw so it's any one's game at this point. So that means if you have missed a month of playing along then here is your chance to catch up and still qualify for the Grand Prize…Deadlines for each month will be given as we go along each month...Awesome Contest, right???

And here's my take on the sketch using Glitz's brand new Vintage Blue collection:

Isn't this sketch fun?! I loved working with it but if you need a little nudge to play along, here it is... a prize pack full to the brim with Dusty Attic, Webster's Pages and of course, lots and lots of Prima!!!!
