April Sketch Inspiration with Yvette!

Hi My Creative Scrapbook Fans!  It's Yvette here, to share a quick and easy step-by-step tutorial using this months beautiful Creative Kit, with the April sketch as my inspiration. Sketches are such a wonderful way to get your creative mind started, which can help you to complete your layout in no time.

I started by die cutting the hearts border from some white Neenah cardstock.  

I decided to flip the sketch horizontally and place the die cut down the center of my page.  

Behind my photo I added some layers using color cardstock and some of the beautiful patterned papers from the 'Spring Fling' collection. I fold the paper in the left corner onto the photo and added a staple to hold it in place.      

I also added a doily from my stash to the back of my photo before I glued it onto my background.     

I fussy cut one of the beautiful butterfly from the Fluffy Bunny patterned paper to embellish the Bee Happy tag, which was also used, as a title for my page.   

A few drops of white paint was then added to the layout. Once the paint was dry, I combined a few die-cut flowers with a couple of 'Spring Fling' stickers to create a cluster on the right hand side of my photo.      

I finished the layout off by tucking some tangled black thread underneath the photo and some stitching around the border of my layout.

I hope you felt inspired today and if you're not a subscriber yet, give it a try. The kits are all so beautiful and you will not regret it!!!!
