Thanks for the fun challenge, Sandi! 

I made a layout for this challenge! I'm updating this post to add it here:



Here's my upload of this project at the ACOT gallery.

Here are the "CHERRIES" elements I used to create my layout:

C -- Craft Consortium paper in the background of my layout 
H -- Happy Planner washi tape with HEARTS on it! 
E -- Elizabeth Craft Designs stamps (stamped at the left and right edges of the layout)
R -- Rectangles (stickers)
R -- Recollections (more washi tape -- the washi tapes by Recollections are the two strips that have foliage and vines)
I -- Ink (Rustic Wilderness by Tim Holtz / Ranger Industries)
E -- EK Success (scalloped scissors -- I used these to fussy cut the scalloped border across the upper edge of the layout)
S -- Sakura (A pen -- I used this to write the green journaling on the middle sticker on this layout). Yikes, you can't see the journaling very well in my photo. It says, "Two Harbors, California -- Catalina Island".

Whew! That really was a challenging challenge -- although definitely a fun one. Again, thanks so much, Sandi! And also, thanks to the folks at Lawn Fawn for making such a lovely prize package available and to all the organizers who worked on putting this event together. I can only imagine all the work and planning that must have gone into this! Just wow! 

Thanks so much for taking a look at my layout. I appreciate your interest!
