No Cricut Thursday #12: DCWV Stack-aholic Challenge

Today for No Cricut Thursday I decided to play along with the DCWV Stack-aholic Template Challenge. This is my first time playing along and I really liked the sketch, but I also wanted the added challenge of not using my Cricut and I found that a little harder than I expected. Here is the sketch and stack I selected:
The challenge is to use the sketch and one of DCWV's stacks. I just bought the new Creamy Cardstock stack and I wanted to play with all the bright and smooth colors. *NOTE: I found that a permanent marker works best on this so you do not smudge.
I went into my Creative Memories cutting tools to cut my shapes and I pulled out a punch from EK Success to do the fun border on the paper. I have not used it much so I practiced first.
I also used some letter stickers from Creative Memories for my simple title. In the end, I was happy with the layout, but I do wonder what I could have done differently with my Cricut?  The biggest critic of them all, my daughter, loved it so no worries I guess. Have a great day.
