This week, our Scrapbook layout comes from Krispy Kreme by Stephanie Baxter:

This week, our Documenter layout comes from Week 2 by Lory Bucaria:

This week, our card comes from To the Grad by Aga Malyszek:

You guys! I had so much fun using Aga's card sketch -- it's a layout I'd never have thought up on my own. I have to say that I just love everything Aga does and this was no exception.

As you can see, I followed the sketch pretty closely, only changing the location of the sentiment. I thought it worked better to have it up top so you could really see the fishies and the waves.

In case you were wondering about the background, it was pretty simple: I stamped the waves from the Ocean set with VersaMark ink and then heat embossed them in white. Then I sponged tumbled glass Distress ink and Studio Calico Color Theory inks in something blue and mojito on watercolor paper, then flicked plain water over top. I love how the Color Theory inks react with water like this.

Hope you have a great week, and always remember to "just keep swimming"! xoxo
