Everybody Loves Kathy

My lovely friend Kathy has been following Shimelle Laine's "And Now For Something Completely Different" class on UK Scrappers since the beginning of this year and I recently saw a lovely layout she had done using the instructions for the May project.  I really liked the position of the papers so I decided to have a go myself so I grabbed some photos of Kathy at the Scrapstars Retreat in April (well why not feature Kathy?) some green mist for the splodges, my favourite white textured cardstock and then went through my stash box in search of some suitable papers.  I found these papers by My Little Shoebox, called Garden Party and thought they went well with the tops Kathy is wearing in the photos.  I hand cut some flowers from the papers and punches some bumble bees and hearts.  As usual, the Thickers I decided chose had alot of letters missing to I had to inprovise with the "a" and the "t" but I think they look okay.  I like the feel of the page so much I am now on with another layout, flipping the positioning of the design to the left hand side to make a page for the baby album I am doing for my friend to document her gorgeous son's first year.
