I'm not sure if I have ever made a scrapbook page that was predominantly yellow before, but this photo of my little boy offering up some daffodils called for yellow. Yes, it did.
I love the happy colors in the Park Bench collection from Fancy Pants Designs. It was just the burst of sunshine I needed. The little decorative bags that are part of the new Fancy Pants collections are so cute. The starry bag here was a perfect pop of color and provide a great spot for hidden journaling.
My layout design is based on the new April sketch at My Creative Scrapbook.
I followed the sketch pretty closely, but omitted the banner and the vertical strips. To balance the page, I added small elements to the top and bottom of the right side.
Here's a side-by-side view of the sketch and layout:
A great prize is up for grabs if you play along with the sketch challenge. You can find all the details here.
Giveaway: There's still time to enter the drawing for the Little Yellow Bicycle prize here on my blog. The prize is from the super cute new Fern and Forest collection. Details in the post below. Be sure to comment in that post to enter. The winner will be announced on Tuesday.
