..:: beautiful you ::..

Hi friends! I am up on The Cut Shoppe blog and the {a flair for buttons} blog with this layout of my daughter. Today I am using the Beautiful You cut file. I cut the file using white card stock. I intended to use white letters, on my blue background, but then an accident happened, and I really liked the accident!  When I set the negative down on my paper, I had to go with it! Here is my layout :

Here is the file:

Here's another look at the file in use:

Since my daughter's name is Bea, I thought it was the perfect file to use with a pic of her looking her BEAutiful self. I also liked the idea of backing the BEA with a different color. :-) I used a punch to punch out different sizes of butterflies to add as embellishment. I also added some awesome flair from {a flair for buttons}, of course!

This flair (above) is from the More Lovely Words 1 flair set. I love the blue flower.  

The "dream" sentiment on the above flair was perfect -- with little pops of blue. Both the dream flair and the flair below are from the Lovely Words 2 flair set.

Bea had been in the sun the whole weekend, and looked so brown! So that is what I journaled about!

I made a video of my process, if that's something that suits your fancy!

Thank you so much for stopping by! See you again soon! XO o.g.

Hi! I have a new video up on my You Tube channel using the 2019 February Clique Kit!  I really love how it turned out!

This kit is full of Cocoa Vanilla Studio, and I simply love it! 

I used the January cut file available to subscribers here, and I backed it with all of the lovely papers!

I love all the little flowers!!!

I made a video of my process if that's something that suits your fancy!

Hi Friends!  Happy Valentine's Day! We are celebrating over at The Cut Shoppe! Here is my contribution:

This is layout in my "Right Now" Traveler's Notebook. My plan is to fill it with things that bring me joy!  This photo certainly does that!  The cut file I used is one of several cut files found on the  Working Title cut file available here.

For this layout I am using items from the May 2018 Clique Kit which was full of PinkFresh Studio Be You and Let Your Heart Decide collections.  The background paper is a 12x12 that I cut to size.  I backed the heart of this cut file, with a coordinating floral paper. 

I love all of the rose gold elements in this collection!  I added some matching thread behind the cut file and a few other places for pops of that color. The eyelets on this banner, and the twin also have that same metallic color.

See that face??  Serious love for that face.  I added the date and some tabs behind the photo -- more tangled thread for the win.

I also made a video of my process, if that's something that suits your fancy!
