Sketch Challenge with a Twist

At the Burlap and Buttercups blog, there's a sketch challenge with a twist going on. Take a look at the sketch:

For the twist, there's two options: use a cell phone photo and/or use paper as an embellishment.

(Supplies: Card stock by Stampin' Up! Paint by Ranger. Shimmer ink by Mister Hueys for American Crafts. Button by Making Memories. All other supplies by Echo Park.)

What I love about this layout: I got to play with paint. It doesn't show up in the photo, but those splatters are paint mixed with shimmer spray ink. I used some more of the remnants I have from last year's Springtime collection by Echo Park, which I've almost used up, now. (I've gotten so much scrappin' mileage out of that one collection pack!)  I also stitched a border on this page, because it felt a bit plain, like it needed at least one more detail. The photo was taken with the tres cool Hipstamatic app on my iPhone.
