Using Hoarded Supplies for a Double Take

This LO shows just two of the beautiful homes my husband and I saw while on a horse drawn carriage ride in Charleston, South Carolina. After a while we stopped taking pictures just to admire the beauty of the architecture.

I am submitting this LO to three challenges.
Use It Tuesday - challenge 42, Use Orange. Most everything on this page is hoarded or forgotten about supplies. Even the pictures are two years old. As far as orange, the adhesive paper ribbon (gift from MIL years ago), background paper (Creative Memories gift, at least two years old), orange cardstock (in scrap folder).
Lasting Memories - #111, Double Take; two homes in downtown Charleston
Lets Get Sketchy! - Week 2, Oct. 8 sketch

the sketch:


my version:
 


Supplies:
Creative Memories paper, photo mats, and scallop punch
Close To My Heart - "Beauty" gift stamp set, Ocean ink
adhesive paper ribbon - found in my stash, no idea where it came from
brads, cardstock - from in stash
Cricut - Gypsy, cut at 5" and welded

Til next time,
Melissa
