LM 400 - Rub Ons

This month at Lasting Memories, our theme is Stash Busting.  This week, our challenge is to use rub-ons.

I had to dig pretty deep into my stash to find some rub ons.  As a rule, I generally don't buy them because I don't really like them.  However, I came across beautiful letter rub ons.  I forgot that I bought them in the dollar bin at Target.

I decided to scrap a photo from a wedding that my husband and I went to this year.  My husband's co-worker had his reception in one of the Boathouse Row houses in Philly, so that was cool.  It was a Cinco de Mayo themed wedding complete with taco bar and LOTS of margaritas.

This layout was a great excuse to use a bunch of cactus die cuts and ephemera that I had lying around.  I have never visited the desert, so I don't know when else I would have the opportunity to use them!

Supplies:

Cactus paper by Recollections (cut out cactuses)
Chipboard Stickers, stickers and cactus ephemera by Crate Paper Oasis Collection
Letter Rub Ons from Target Dollar Bin
Heart Puffy Stickers by SEI
Clear puffy succulent, cactus & heart stickers by Recollections


I am entering this layout in the CSI: Color Stories Inspiration challenge for this month.  I just love these colors!
