Zukesgirl Creates

I used  Sketches in Thyme  sketch #335 as my inspiration for this layout. We opened our Bistro last year. Love From Lizi's August 2018 card kit was the perfect shine to add to this happy layout! The Let's Celebrate is a stamp from the kit - I used LFL fine gold powder to emboss it. The remaining papers are from my stash. Simon Says Stamps stitched dies provided most of the embellishments.  With Nuvo drops added in. Here's the inspiration sketch:

Using a really old Basic Grey paper from my stash I created this layout of my dog Zack and and my grand fur baby Boston. -We have to leave the leash on Boston because he's a wanderer otherwise. - I used stamps from two sets: My Favorite Things - Two Legged Friends (for the dogs and the sentiment) and Simon Says Stamp - Pawprints on our Hearts (for the paw print).  I colored the dogs, giving them a bit of a muddy look, using my Zig Clean Color Brush Markers. A few wood veneers and letter stickers from my stash rounded it out. Oh and Nuvo drops and Love From Lizi peel-offs - as always. I tore the background paper to match (?) the faded edges of the sketch. The inspiration sketch is: Thank you sketches in time for helping me to get back into scrapbooking!
