Hmmmm!
It is February, which means Valentine's ... but I don't do lovey dovey!
Hmmmm indeed!!
Luckily I remembered that last November (on 10.11.12) I listed 10 reasons why I love numbers and I thought it would make a fun addition to my Book Of Me:
The page is (loosely) based on the January sketch from The Sampler Kit Club but I wanted to try out a fun technique with modelling paste and a stencil and this resulted in my background containing somewhat less white space than the sketch. I've added some Making Memories heart brads (coloured with red and black Sharpies) to my January Counterfeit Kit supplies. The 10 reasons why I think numbers are great are listed in full here if you are curious.
This challenge will be the theme of the CKCB's Member Blog Hop later in the month - if you want to join in please let them know by the 15th - it would be great to see what you come up with.

Great masking Jemma. And I love your reasons for loving numbers :)
I will be joining the blog hop again this month
A great page, which I must say its nice to see a layout without a photo but lots of interesting journalling instead ... I love that masked background too
the effect from the mask is great.
Adore your layout AND your reasons for preferring numbers to letters! Made me chuckle. :D
perfect choice for your "book of me"
great colours and brad altering.
Great masking, and I just love the double heart embellishment.
This is such a wonderful page! Loooove the masking and the tag journaling!!!
What a good idea. Wish I'd thought of that. Looks fabulous.
Love the Kraft and the striking colours of the numbers and stars! The modelling paste has worked really well!!! Love it!
love the use of modeling paste. it looks great. thanks for playing with us at the sampler.
The stitching on the tags looks fantastic! So does the modelling paste. What a great way to make a no-photo page look so interesting! x
Ha! I found my modelling paste the other day and hesitated before putting it back. Your page has inspired me to dig it back out next week when I've got time to scrap.
your masking effect is great and what a lovely way to take the prompt - I'm busy collecting ideas so I can join in on the blog hop. I'm not sure right now but a love of numbers is a fun way to go!
I love how you've used all the number-related products to emphasise the theme of your page. It looks awesome!
Thank you so much for playing along with the challenges at The Sampler kit club! I love your masking, and your layout is really lovely. Great job!
