Caterpillar Crazy!

I was actually working on another layout using another picture from this set when I found this sketch.  Somehow my brain went into mojo mode and I just continued with the page I made yesterday.  I used the same paper scraps - Pink Paislee and Studio Calico, but I liked the grid layout design here. 

I used the 3X3 size for all the blocks and painted more frames with Tide Pool Glimmer Glam and Pink Lady Glimmer Glaze.  I added some more notions flowers for the visual triangle and a few tickets for the title and journaling.

Here you can see how I masked off the other two 3 inch blocks with paper and stamped the quilt block border stamp in VersaMark and heat embossed with silver embossing powder.  I was very pleased with the overall look of this! 
By the way, I just had to get pics of my daughter and her obsession with caterpillars this spring - even in her Easter dress!  Who knew caterpillars could trump Easter eggs?
