My Favorite Girls Layout

Today I have a double page layout to share over on the KaDoodle Bug Designs blog which I created for some pictures of my daughter and niece.  My layout was inspired by the sweet girls from the KaDoodle Bug Designs Lady Bug Girls file.  I had previously created a card with this file and knew I had to make a layout page with these adorable girls. This file was extremely tedious to piece together so I left off all of the little dots on the girl's dresses.  By the time I got to adding those, I was pretty much done.  The girl's faces were stamped with the new Peachy Keen Fashionista Face Assortment Stamps.  I'm really loving these new face stamps and how realistic they look.

The title for my layout was cut from the Sugar and Spice Cricut cartridge, however, the original title was "My Favorite Things" so I substituted in the word "girls" for  "things".   A few extra flowers were cut from the Wild Card cartridge to add a bit more detail and layering to the flowers from the Lady Bug Girls file.

A grass border punched with my Fiskars Grass punch was adhered along the bottom of my layout page.  A few bling accents and a fun tag were the finishing accents on my layout.  The tag was tied with a bit of Cherry Midnight Trendy Twine.

Thanks so much for stopping by!  Have a great day!

Bunny Hop

Hello and welcome to the Trendy Twine Bunny Hop!  

Thanks for joining our hop today featuring Bubblegum Taffy twine.  We are showcasing color number 45 in the Trendy Twine line up.  This color is a twist of aqua, pink and white and is the perfect combination for Spring projects.

My project is a double page 12x12 layout.  The title for my layout was cut from the 3 Birds on a Parade cartridge, the fence from My Community, the eggs from Sugar and Spice and the bunnies from Teddy Bear Parade.

The Sizzix Woodgrain folder was used to emboss the fence for added texture.  The grass was punched with the Fiskars border punch.  The fence and grass were both inked on the edges.

The bunny faces were stamped with the Peachy Keen Animal Faces stamp set.  A couple of buttons with Bubblegum Taffy twine were adhered to the eggs.  The twine was also added to the bunnies, the title and the photo mats.

I loved the title for this layout, I plan to add a couple of picture of my niece to this layout.  The twine outline on the photo mats with the rolled ends was the perfect accent to highlight the pictures.

The next stop on the hop is Dawn.  Visit the store here to purchase the new twine color.

Little Princess Layout

This layout was created to celebrate the birth of my niece who was just born last week.  I used the Sugar and Spice Lite cartridge for all of the cuts with the exception of the monogram "R" which was cut from the Letter Envy cartridge.

I used some patterned paper at the top of the layout which has a solid white border punched with the Martha Stewart Eyelet punch.

The title and the monogram were both cut from glitter paper.  I added the monogrammed "R" to a tag from my stash and embellished it with some bling and Posy Trendy Twine.  The twine was also used throughout the layout.

The die cuts were accented with my white gel pen and popped up on foam dots to create some dimension.
