All Stuffed Up

Hello all ya’ll creative minds!

It is time to embark on another layer challenge.  As we dive into this month’s theme, “All Stuffed Up”,   I’ve found myself in the clutches of persistent seasonal allergies thus, the idea for this challenge has derived.

This month I invite you to explore the art of incorporating pockets into your designs. Unleash your imagination and stuff these pockets to the brim with an array of delightful goodies. Whether it’s ribbons, tags, journals, papers, photos, or even vibrant florals – the choice is yours! Let your mind soar as you envision the perfect arrangement.  The possibilities are endless! There are many pocket options in the store or you can create your own i.e.  Readymade Layers: Envelope Clusters 18, Pocketing Envelopes Layered Template 01, Negative Sleeves 03.

Katie has generously provided us with freebies for this challenge.
