Imaginisce Sketch Challenge

It's time again for another amazing blog hop and sketch challenge with Imaginisce.  This month we have a sketch from the talented Cindy Stevens.  I decided to take a walk back down memory lane and use the Imaginisce To Love and Cherish collection to create this layout.
Most of you know the drill, but I'll add the scoop just in case.   Add a comment to the Imaginisce home blog and you will be entered into a drawing for some Imaginisce goodness. Leave a comment here and on any of the other design team blogs who participated in the sketch challenge this month and you increase your odds of winning. Don't forget to stop by the Imaginisce Facebook page for even more chances of winning.   Hope you will play along this month for another opportunity to win some goodies.
Imaginisce has some new fun tools and things to play with.  Check out my Roly Rosie Flowers that I added to my layout.  All I needed to do was pop out the pre-cut strip, ink the edges with some chalk ink, and use my Petal Roller to create the flower center.  Then I added one of the pearl brads that came with the To Love and Cherish collection and voila - I easily created some really pretty flowers.  You have got to try these!
Have you checked out your stash lately???  I found these red chipboard letters from My Little Shoebox that I had completely forgotten about and OMWord are they so much fun and the perfect addition for the title.  I love it when I clean my scraproom and it feels like Christmas again - hee, hee,

Thank you so much for stopping by -
