So I'm slowly working on the photos I've taken with my phone....love that printing them card-size makes them perfect for a 8.5 x 11 layout. :)
I love this My Mind's Eye patterned paper....just included some paper blooms and embellishments to extend on the patterns on the paper as well as add some texture and dimension. A good way to add the bits and pieces you have laying on your craft table.
Can you tell that I ran out of the letter "S" ? I was too lazy to paint the lone chipboard which would make it blend seamlessly with the rest of the chipboard letters...so I coloured it with a pink Copic marker, then added stickles [glitter makes everything better!]. Had to strategically add pink elements around to complete the "illusion" of a planned design...*winks*
Playing along with the recipe challenge at Punky Scraps.
Supplies: My Mind's Eye and Echo Park patterned papers, Heidi Swapp chipboard letters, Maya Mists, Prima blooms, Ranger stickles, MT washi tape, buttons, white pen, ribbon, embellishments.

ReplyDeleteI love the woodgrain backing paper and I run out of letters constantly...so I too do what you have done.Nevertheless it blended beautifully with the rest of the LO.
