. . . Hello Karen here with this month's challenge which is to stumping on a layout. I'm not really comfortable with stumping on a layout. I'm going to use the stumps which I chose specifically because they have the layout which is what I think my page is going to be mostly about. So I have those stumps. I also have these shiny sparkly letters which I think we can be embodding so I'm very expensive. Some pros and you know the dots which I may not use. Then I have scraps of paper and die cuts left over from classes that I took at a previous retreat. I have prepared a mask which was cut on my silhouette on a self-adhesive cardstock. And then the last thing that I did also on my silhouette was to do a page with where I punched holes for stitching. I have used the silhouette right my title which is going to be bestest best friend forever. Also at the very bottom if you can just about see I've used it to do some journal in lines. So the first thing I need to do is to line my mask up over my page. I'm going to stamp over that and remove it. So I'm using my Tim Holt's stamping platform to decide where I'm going to put things and then I will ink it up and stamp my page. So I've arranged the stamps around part of my heart and I can now pick them up on my platform, ink them and stamp that bit. Now let's see if it works peel off the mask. It seems to have worked really well. I was at 24 with where my clothes from asked. So I'm going to thumb print there that I have to cover up. So that is the start of my page. So I'm going to go and do my stitching. Oh but first I think I'll flick some colour on. As you can see I've decided to put the mask back on before I flip to the colour on. So I've done the stitching around my heart which I'm really pleased with it makes it look really clean whereas before I thought it was a bit scruffy, didn't have any definition and I've cut a couple of pieces of paper as my photo mount and I've fussy cut three clusters of flowers. And I've also sorted out some bits and pieces that I'm going to add to my page. There we are the finished layout. So I have coloured these silver letters with a black sharpie and written my journaling which I made a hash off because I didn't quite have enough room to put everything I wanted to put. So I hope you've enjoyed watching this YouTube and call back again later in the month when you'll be able to see what the other talented UK scrap addik designers have done for you with this month's prompt which is to stamp on layout. Thank you for watching. Bye bye. .
