Scraps of Darkness May Kit

Happy Memorial Day!

I decided to join Scraps of Darkness this month with the assurance that I will have a kit for June. I was excited when Melinda emailed me saying she had a current kit available. This month kit has an Asian flair. So far I was only able to finish two layoits with the kit. I finish the May Sketch and a layout for my son. This kit papers were bright and busy. I struggled for a minute with the kit due to the business of the papers.

The May Sketch layout is a picture of my daughter at 3 months old. I didnt have a fan in my kit so I created one with the bamboo sticks that were in the kit. The flower vines were from my stash at home.

**** This Layout won MAY SKETCH CHALLENGE at Scraps of Darkness ****


The other layout is a picture of my son when he was 3 months old. With this layout I forced myself not to use flowers. I love flowers and I grab for them alot. My son has those girly eyes and hair so I really do not want to use alot of flowers. But I know its coming soon for me to create a boy layout with a few flowers. The crane from this kit was painted with leftover white paint in the brush and little mermaid

Thanks for looking and Have a wonderful holiday!
