May Word Puzzle

Here are the creations for this month's Word Puzzle Workshop - we are using the May Word Puzzle and Amore papers. This was actually my least favorite new paper pack, but I really like what I came up with - it's starting to grow on me! For complete workshop details, click here.

12x12 Option



This was created using this month's Cherish Challenge, so here is the companion page (we are only creating the left side for the workshop). Which right page do you like better? With 3 Chocolate photo squares or just 2? I think I like 3, but I'd love to hear your opinion.

I don't know if you can see the detail in this picture or not, but here is what I did on the white edges of the layouts: I stamped the flourish border stamp from the word puzzle set in Vanilla Cream ink and then used a sponge to chalk around the edges with Chocolate Chalk from the Autumn Soft Chalks. It gave it a very soft, subtle look, darker on the edges, I really like how it turned out. You may be able to see this effect better on the 6x6 layouts or one of the cards posted below.
