Splash into July with Paper Secrets!

Hello All! Can you believe that we are well in to the month of July already?? Crazy right!! Well at least that means there is another beautiful sketch over at Paper Secrets, created by the super talented Kelly Holifield just for all of you! 

July 1st Challenge:

Word: SPLASH

Now remember you must include items, colors, brands, etc. beginning with each of the letter of the word - SPLASH. You must use a different item for each letter ( for example you CAN NOT use white cardstock to represent "w" and "c" as "w"hite & "c"ardstock).  Please note in your blog write up what items you used.

Now lets take a look at my take on Kelly's beautiful sketch:

                                                            S-Simple Stories

                                                            P- Paint

                                                            L- Lavender-Mist

                                                            A- Arrow sticker

                                                            S- Star stamp

                                                            H- Heart wood veneers

Some details just for Fun!
