Tiffany shares this about her layout:
"Hello SOS friends! Tiffany here with my take on the Pick Your Side Sketch challenge for Mayl. My daughter and her friends had a "welcome to summer" bonfire last May, so I printed 3 pictures from her SnapChat annount to use for the layout. (sometimes it's the only way I get pics of my teenagers!) I chose to flip the right side of the sketch to work with my 3 photos. Since the pictures were on the dark side, I used lots of bright colors for my layout. After placing my pics on the rainbow background, I tucked lots of scraps all around. And by scraps- I mean scraps! Everything tuked around the edges was all found on my table, the advantage of a messy craft area! I have a lovely bowl of tags I save from clothing, so I pulled a narrow rectangle tag, compete with twine and a great safety pin, and tucked that behind the top photo. Looking forward to seeing your take on this Pick Your Side Sketch challenge."

I did the right side of the sketch and used my tag to do my journaling and stuck it under one of the photos. The "ribbon" is an actual galaxy shoe lace from one of my kids old shoes."

Designer Tiffany Call
created based on the
May Saturday Cartoon Inspired Stash Challenge:

"Hello SOS friends! Tiffany here with my take on the Saturday Morning Cartoons Sketch challenge for May. So much fun to play with all the colors of the rainbow! I had picks of my daughter and her friend at our Town-Wide Cleanup wearing BRIGHT GREEN shirts, so they were perfect for this bright challenge! I went to my stash of nature-themed papers, and found this pretty tree pattern that is probably supposed to be for xmas, but the girls are in the woods so why not! I roughly scibbled circles on 2 scraps of bright green and blue paper, and tucked them behind the photos. I had a gradiated rainbow scrap that I used behind my title and a thin strip on the top and bottom of the layout. You can read more about my layout on my blog:
