Frida Immersive Exhibit layout for Sketches in Thyme

Welcome to the next installation of my Chicago 2022 scrapbook. I scrapped this page per the latest Sketches in Thyme Facebook Group sketch.  We have four sketches per month and this is the fourth.  I am using the same K & Co papers I have had on my desk for a couple of months.  I purchased them second hand so I don't have the name of the stack but they are so pretty! I just love the bright color combination.

Here is the sketch.

I used both pink and orange letters to create the title.

I printed these two photos small to accommodate the sketch. I cut several circles out of different scraps and since I they are doubled sided papers I had lots of choices.

Ingredients:

K & Co papers

Creative Memories sticker letters and circle cutter

foil washi tape

gems and flair

Frida Exhibit layout for Sketches in Thyme

Welcome to my blog today.  I am scrapping for Sketches in Thyme Facebook Group.  I began a new project for 2025, I am scrapping a trip to Chicago from 2022.  I just acquired this K & Co paper stack at Indigo Hippo and they were right by my desk because they had not been filed away.  I immediately recognized how they would compliment my Frida Exhibit photos from this trip.  I also used them on my last Frida layout last month.  On this layout, I found some different embellies, but these pieces were hanging out on my desk.  

Here's the sketch.

I also acquired this ephemera pack at  Indigo Hippo as well.  There's always a nice surprise at that store.  I used the moon as the centerpiece of this cluster.  I added die cuts and fiber.

I inked up the chipboard pieces with a variety of Distress inks.

I used Cheery Lynn dies and inked up them up with Distress inks.

Ingredients:

K & Co papers

Cheery Lynn Designs Mehndi Botanical Stem dies

Distress inks:  Wild Honey, Twisted Citron, Mowed Lawn, Saltwater Taffy, Worn Lipstick, and Spiced Marmalade

Momento Dew Drop London Fog ink

Hip Kit Club Flourishes by Kim & Kimberly ephemera

Fiber and gems 

I would like to enter this over at Lasting Memories Back to Basic Band design challenge open until 2.28.25

Thanks for stopping by.
