Gold Lame'

I don't do monthly kit clubs and I don't have any plans on joining any in the near future, but I do love the current Jenni Bowlin kit.  I was able to purchase it this month, so the layout below is almost all from that kit, with the exception of the washi tape, doilies and chipboard hearts that I covered in glitter. 
I am a messy scrapper.  Ink gets smudged, lines don't always go straight and glitter gets everywhere.   OMG...I love glitter!  I had a lot of inspiration this week.  At City Crafter Challenge, the theme is All that Glitter's. I started out with the sketch from this weeks Let Get Sketchy sketch, but after awhile, it morphed into this and the only hexagon remaining became an accent piece.  A Twisted Tuesday Challenge!
At Use Your Stuff, Challenge #72 All in the Family, there is a challenge to document something about your family.  I was too late to link up, but I had to give a shout-out because they really did inspire me.  :) The layout is about a skirt my daughter wore her senior year of high school.  She's graduating from college in three months, so as you can tell, I don't scrap chronologically. :)
