This month's layouts are coming from our how to book called IMAGINE. We are cruising on through the book in order and we are up to page 121-122 already. This layout is called MONOLOGUE.

Paper Used in Imagine calls for the following:

2 - 12x12 Base Pages

• A good portion of the base is visible so you may opt for a color. I used black.

2 - 12x12 B&T Papers -- each a DIFFERENT patterned paper

• Sheet 1 - we use a combined 12x7 portion. I used Dutch Blue Cardstock, Random Stamped.

• Sheet 2 - we use a combined 12x6 portion. I used Cranberry Cardstock, Stamped.

1 - 12x12 Cardstock Paper

• We use a combined 7x12 portion (2- 5x7 pieces)

Don't forget to bring your PAPER, 12" PAPER TRIMMER, ADHESIVE, PENCIL for labeling, ACCESSORIES are optional.
