Sold Out

This is a 12"x12" layout for my scrapbook of my trip to Sweden.  This one has been slowly coming together, since I only work on it every once in a while.  This particular layout is of a side trip the group of us in Sweden took for a BBQ by a lake.  And, no, the title is not pronounced how you think!  ;)  It is a Swedish word that means "sold out." 
All the cardstock, other than the brown and white, came from the Summer Days Stack by DCWV.  The shimmery blue cardstock is 8"x4" and the plaid strip is 12"x3 1/2."  The star cardstock is 6 1/4"x8."  The photo is 4"x6" and the white cardstock is 3 1/2"x5 1/2."  I used Indie Art for the ice cream cone and it is cut at 6 1/2."  I embossed the light pink layer with the D'vine Swirls folder and added glossy accents to the dark pink layer.  I used Plantin Schoolbook for the title, and cut it at 1 1/2."  The swirls and the butterfly were printed on the cardstock, and I covered up a dandelion with the ice cream cone. 

I made this for the following challenges:

  7. Well, that title is....errrr....different! lol I'm assuming ( since I didn't check ) that your journaling explains the title! Otherwise, that would be interesting to explain, over and over. Frankly I thought you were implying you were an ice cream slut...kinda made sense to me! ::innocennt look:: waving hi from the hills of North Carolina :)

  9. Great interpretation of the sketch Paula, and you've rotated it for your beautiful photo. Loving the embossed Cricut ice-cream, and the title is a cracker - so how do you pronounce it? Good to see you at SOUS again!
