Scrapbook Layout 1: Candy Factory

This layout was created with DCWV's Glitter Sweet Stack: it includes a pre-sewn journaling tag and four photo mats, and features three sweet tear bears, a conveyor belt, a candy stand, and yummy polymer clay lollipops.  The tear bears, paper piecings, and polymer clay pieces were all handmade.  I have to admit, during the course of this layout, I had a few candy cravings!

The "memories" title was made with the Cricut machine, using the Makin' the Grade cartridge.



These photo mats came out very sturdy, which I liked.  No, seriously, I was really pleased.  :)







The tag and mats were all inked with Colorbox (bright) pigment ink. 

The swirls on the lollipops are actually swirls of glitter; the candy pieces are also speckled with glitter.



Each slat was individually inked and pieced; it took awhile, but I think it gave the slats an extra dimension. 

The candy stand is made with glitter cardstock; it is a shame the picture doesn't show the glitter too well.  :(

Bags of sugar, ready to be made into candy!

I liked how this yellow dress came out; the ruffles added an extra layer and detail.
