Ghost Town in The Sky

My Mind's Eye Collectable - Unforgettable 

Ghost Town in The Sky layout

Created by Janet G. Bagnall

Sketch designed by Lori McClellan

Happy 1st Monday of March everyone.  Can you believe I am saying that? Me neither. Today is my day to bring you a project using Lori's sketch while using the new My Mind's Eye Collectable - Unforgettable collection.  I was so excited when I opened up my kit and found all these goodies inside - I love everything about it.

Isn't this new Chic sketch from The Hen's Den great?  It was created by Design Team Member, Lori McClellan.  I love it and hope you will give it a try (please let us know if you do so we can take a peek).  I'm going to show you my completed layout in two parts so as to not overload you with so much fun - LOL :)  The one I'm showing you today is the title page.

We had taken Jared and Elizabeth to Ghost Town in The Sky years ago and when I went through my kit, came across this unique cardstock (well, it is to me) and an idea came to me.  I took a rectangle piece of brown Graphic 45 "Signature Series" Core'dinations cardstock, tore it down to the size I wanted, crumbled it up, distressed it with sandpaper and some Tim Holtz vintage photo ink and voilà, I got a faux leather look :)  I found the parks' name off their website, printed it out and place it on top of that.  What do you think?  I was pleased with the result.

While working on setting up my layout, I had it lined up with the strips going like Lori had it on her sketch, but after looking at it, I just couldn't get it to look right, so took those strips and put them underneath each picture.  I think it turned out pretty good.

This is a great collection that has lots of fun goodies to play with and look forward to using this collection often.  I am excited about showing you the rest of my take on this fun sketch soon.

Have a great Monday and hope you will head over to The Hens' Den store to take a look at all the great products Charlie has on hand.
