Sketch 193: Pink + Glitter

Okay, so it's definitely not my normal thing.  Wait until you see all the pink and glitter on this layout!  Here's the Pencil Lines sketch:

And here's my interpretation:

I wandered away from the sketch for the most part.  However I kept several of the elements: the large mat behind the photo, the layered embellishment, and the paper strip across the bottom.  The more I work on sketches the more I discover that I *need* to wander away.  It always feels very tight and confined if I don't. 

Check out the details:

I made a paper bow and then used Rock Candy Stickles on it to add a bit of shine!  I also used the Rock Candy Stickles on the cupcake, which I pieced and then stitched together:

I inked the edges of the large scallop with brown Distress Ink.  It really helps to create contrast and focus your eye towards the center.  And I like the mixture of the tough distressing with the soft glitter and girly pinks on the layout.

I added a bit of bling to the letters with some single rhinestones.  And I added a row of rhinestones...

...to the frame around the journaling.
