The weather here in Maryland has been gorgeous the last few days! Temps in the 80's with a nice breeze. I've taken advantage of it and have been spending time outdoors tending to my flower gardens. The hot humid days are expected to make a return any day now.
I've got a layout to share of my mom.
It was taken years ago. She is sitting on the steps of the house I grew up in.
I used my July Artful Delight kit along with sketch #128 from The Scrappiest, which I flipped.
I got a little adventurous on my layout and actually did a little stamping. I used a brick wall stamp from Prima and a doily stamp from My Mind's Eye.
I also used a stitching template from Bazzill to make the pretty flowers.
There is still plenty of time to enter the sketch challenge over at Artful Delight for a chance to win the July kit. You can check it out here.
Have a great weekend!
Thanks for stopping by!
