Tickle Me!

I am loving all the challenges going on at the moment. My diary has a huge list of ones I am hoping to do before they close. Busy times!!! This is my second LO at ScrapFit (I am still hoping to do a banners one as I love banners).

THis one was for the book cover inspiration. One had to look at a book cover for inspiration in terms of either the sketch of the cover, the colors or the vintage feel. I decided to go for the design of the cover only because the linear approach to the sketch is very different from my "comfort zone" so I decided to go with that to stretch me a bit.
However, I did try to soften it somewhat with some circles, clusters and the banner. I also used a large photo 7x5 so that the picture would not get lost amongst the pattern paper
Here I used Fancy Pants Happy together line, prima felt embellishments and some LillyBee rubons. I also used a button which says "I am a tickle monster" which I came across a couple of monts ago with the intention of using it for this picture.
