I Dare Ya!!

As you know, I had a bit of a clean up of my scrap space last week. I had thrown out my old box of paper scraps because I never used them. But I did start a new scrap box with some of my recent papers. When I saw the challenge at the new challenge blog Daring You To Scrap, I knew almost instantly what I wanted to do. The challenge is to use paper scraps as your background. So here is my layout:
I roughly cut strips of paper and then layered them on the cardstock. I then pulled out my sewing machine and added some stitching. The kite is from A Lil Somethin.

And I've used some some of my older alphas - some Thickers and Cosmo Cricket tiny alphas:

Thanks for stopping by and for any comments you may leave! xx
