My Friends - layout

This was another layout I did over the weekend using the E2. I love the colors in this layout and I chose the paper from the colors in the picture.

Supplies Used -
Cricut - E2; Graphically Speaking cart, Old West cart, Elegant Edges cart
Patterned paper - Basic Grey Lime Rickey
Cardstock - various
Hot fix gems
Cat Eye Chalk Ink
Janome Sew Mini
Stampin Up Markers
Eyelet Outlet - Drink eyelets
1/4" Grosgrain ribbon



Some of you might recognize BFF Karen on the right. Everyone wave and say "HI BFF KAREN!"



I used the hide contour feature on the sombrero so I could get more color in it and after I got it done I wished I had added one more layer in the turquoise blue color but I was just too lazy to go back and do it again.

I added 2mm Hot Fix gems to the sombrero to give it a little more color and it does look a little better in person than in the picture.








I welded the base of the title together and then just layered the top letter on the base *okie wonders why she even typed that since it is obvious what she did from the picture*.

I had to hand write my journaling since my printer is fried *okie is still in mourning over this predicament* and I so hate my hand writing.

The drink eyelets were actually an after thought when I completed the layout but I think they look good even if they do get a little lost on the busy patterned paper background.
