Creative Yearnings: The Sisterhood

Good morning..Karen Taylor here today to with you a happy October to you.

I hope you are enjoying fall weather.
I know I am loving the cooler temperatures and the leaves changing color.

For my Want2Scrap™ project today I am celebrating sisterhood!

“A sister is a little bit of childhood that can never be lost.” ~Marion C. Garretty

I started my layout with Simple Stories Elementary collection and cut Spellbinders™ Paper Arts: Stars Nestabilities® die templates using Grand Calibur™ die cut machine. I cut my background paper to 11 1/2 x 11/1/2, inked the edges and stapled to a 12 x 12 piece of kraft paper.

I then glued the die cut star to Nestaboard™ Stars Five,

Inked with ECO Green: Ink Walnut and embellished with Nestabling™ Star Five Silver and Bling: 72 Count - Silver Rhinestones - Self Adhesive and finished off the the layout with the layered and “blinged” stars.

I then die cut using Spellbinders™ Paper Arts: Grand Calibur™ die cut machine Donna's Alphas Spellbinders™ Shapeabilities® the word “SISTERS” . Inked them and embellished with Want2Scrap™: Bling: 72 Count - Silver Rhinestones - Self Adhesive.

In the cookies of life, sisters are the chocolate chips. ~Author Unknown

She is your mirror, shining back at you with a world of possibilities. She is your witness, who sees you at your worst and best, and loves you anyway. She is your partner in crime, your midnight companion, someone who knows when you are smiling, even in the dark. She is your teacher, your defense attorney, your personal press agent, even your shrink. Some days, she's the reason you wish you were an only child. ~Barbara Alpert
