This week's theme is "Mum's the Word". I decided to create a scrapbook page that I will put in a 12x12 shadow box frame as a gift for my mom.
Paper: Seaside, Daydream (retired), Wings (retired), Colonial White CS, Black CS (CTMH)
Stamp: Just Sayin' (CTMH)
Inks: Black, Hollyhock (CTMH)
Tools: Paper-Piercer, Foam Pad, Micro-Tip Scissors, Cricut Art Philosophy (CTMH)
Other: Black Embroidery Floss, Chantilly PML Cards, Sparkle Flourish, Foam Tape (CTMH)
You might not initially think these papers would go together, but green and pink compliment each other well...add in neutrals like white and black, and they actually do work well. Even though it's a small part of the photo, my little girl was wearing butterfly leggings, so I decided to play off the photo when picking papers.
My son actually helped me stitch this layout. He loves to sew now, and is forever asking me to pierce paper so he can stitch. Cute, huh? He's 8, btw.
You have all month to play along at Heart 2 Heart Challenges. Thanks for stopping by.

ReplyDeleteHi Cassandra, Congrats on being guest designer at H2H! I was just reading your snippet and realizing that we have a lot in common! We've been consultants for the same length of time, I was into friendship bracelets, and we even live near each other... well sort of. Maybe we could meet sometime :)
