I never imagined I would use this color combination on a layout, but it seemed to match the color in the photos perfectly, so I ran with it. Actually, it's growing on me now. I don't have any current B&T papers with Ocean in them, so I used the flowered piece from a long-retired pack. Who remembers the old B&T combo packs for each season? I miss them . . . Anyways, I ran into some technical difficulties with this layout, so it took me longer than I thought to finish. I wanted to use my Color Ready Alphabet stickers on it, but I didn't have enough of two of the letters, so I had to create some using my Wishblade. Can you tell which ones aren't stickers? Hopefully not!

Photo shapes layout from Cherish. I am trying to use up my stash, this layout was done using all scraps except for the bases.

I like the new layouts, ladies. Monica, your title design is clever. It took me a minute to see the double title. Cool! Linda, I like what you did with the Photo Shapes pattern. I've never used it because it never worked for me, so it's nice to see a cute layout with it. Keep 'em coming, ladies!
ReplyDeleteBeautiful, Cheryl! The colours are lovely together...and yes...I, too miss the B&Ts! I used some of the sweet leaf that had all the words written on it in a layout I did last night...you'll see it soon! And I am very impressed with your cs letters! I wouldn't have had the patience!
ReplyDeleteLove the color combo!!!

ReplyDeleteI love the picture of Christina here in her tomboy stage, with chocolate on her face and hair everywhere!
Darn it, that last post was supposed to go somewhere else!!!
ReplyDeleteBeth, love your volcano layout, and is that the Thurston Lava Tube I spy on the right page? I just finished scrapping our 2006 vacation to Hawaii, so that looks really familiar!
