This week, our theme at Sweet Sassy Diva's is this sketch challenge. This is Lori from ScrappinMyStressAway and I created my layout with some photos of our recent trip to Sea World. I couldn't decide between Sea World and Dr. Seuss.....
I reversed the sketch and used only a few Cricut cuts this time. My Gypsy will not cut welded images right now which is very hard for me!!! I weld almost everything!!! My E2 was getting updated all day (currently still updating at the time I write this) and I had to unpack my Expression to cut out my images. To say this layout was challenging would be correct!!!
I used some paper from my new DCWV Paper Pad ~ The Snapshot Stack. I thought this was fitting as I took a ton of photos at Sea World!
I grouped my cuts for both layouts on one Layer of my Gypsy. I used Hello Kitty Font for my title and cut out the letters at 1.27 inches.
I cut the whales out from Life is a Beach at 1.82 inches.
I cut out my titles in red cardstock. I cut the whales out of white and black cardstock. I cut a little design into the black whale so the white "spots" showed.
I lined up my words where I wanted them to be on my Gypsy so I can use the template to adhere them to my layout.
Perfectly centered and straight every time!!
Here is one of the whales and my journaling tag. This tag was from a KandCo set. There was an orange detail that did not match, so I covered it up with the black and white ribbon.
Here is Shamu! I trimmed a photo from the Shamu Show to the same size as......
Tanner with Shamu!
Sea World was a great time! I loved the shows and feeding the dolphins! I hope to return one day!
Thanks for having me on your blog today Bobbi Jo!!!
