CEST MANIFIQUE SKETCH CHALLENGE FOR OCTOBER - Pumpkin Patch



Morning all, here is my latest layout that I have just finished, I used a sketch from Cest Manifique for my inspiration, along with their October Kit. I hope you like it.

For this layout I used the 7 Dots Studio papers.
I matted my photo, cut out the large banner and inked the edges.
Next, start adding some layers, I used some hand made paper, burlap, a doily, cards from the kit, paper from the kit and some cardboard that I put gesso on.
I made some mini banners and inked the edges and attached these.
I then started to decorate.

I hope you like the finished result.

  1. This layout is stunning Carole. The colours are just beautiful, and your background work is amazing. So, you subscribe to the C'est Magnifique Kits? I have always wanted to but was scared of the postage rates. Do you just get the main kit, or all the add ons as well. Would love to subscribe too. WOW - your Blog Hop Banner is big enough....LOL Hugs xx

    1. Hi Jane, thanks for allowing me to paste your blog hop badge - don't know why its so big though!!
      I just get the main kit, but if you include add ons they would be included in the postage which is $20.00. I know its a bit steep but they arrive really quickly and they will add anything extra in at no extra charge. They have just started a new mixed media kit which looks amazing and could be a little cheaper so I have switched to that one for next time. The great thing with the kits is that we get stuff that you cannot buy here and stuff that is a bit different that I wouldn't think of buying! Plus stuff is so expensive over here, it probably works out about the same with the postage included if I bought it here anyway! What do you think?
