#44 "Belly Rub" (Sketch~Let's Scrap) PP & Letters~Love, Elsie Daisy

I have stopped buying Thickers and other letter stickers other than the tiny alphas. It seems like you always have the same things left over that you can't use. I always run out of vowels and s, t, r, especially. I am trying to use up what I have and then plan to cut letters with my cricut. Both of these layouts I had to create letters I needed by cutting or substituting. On Belly rub I had to turn a capital A upside down and cut off one leg to create a lowercase b as I only had one B. In the gardengoyle one I only had 4 letters I needed, the a, r, o, and l. I had to use the number 3 for the e,the 6 for the g, the p for the d, the z for the N, and cut the leg off an x for the y. That may just be the most altered letters I have ever used in one title.

I used an old shadowbox frame I got for $2 at a scrappy store garage sale, that I had crackle painted. Has been sitting under my desk for months. The pp is bo bunny.The love sticker is Anna Griffin. The live, be, and branch were cut out on the cricut. The key is tim holtz, and the butterfly is Jolee, green ribbon is ctmh. Pearls are Kaiserkraft. Flowers are prima that I sprayed with Candy Apple glimmermist.
