Another challenge layout...

So, after I posted this layout for Marcy's challenge to me to use three tags on a layout, Tara issued me two challenges:

1. Create a LO based on you and your proud accomplishments in life;
2. Create a LO using only stuff in your old stash, nothing from any of the new lines.

For the first one, I thought immediately of the photos I have of my black belt test. I had bought a sheet of Studio Calico patterned paper at the SSD scrappy garage sale over a year ago and have been saving it for these photos. So, knowing that, I was confident that I could combine both challenges into one layout:


I used Bazzill cardstock, Studio Calico patterned paper and Scenic Route letter stickers. I made the embellishment on the second page with PTI felt (black), cardstock (Smokey Shadow & Summer Sunrise)& dies: Mat Stack #1, Mat Stack #5 and Seeing Stars.

Here are some closeups:








Thanks for looking!
