..:: favorite escape ::..

Hi Friends! I am up on the {a flair for buttons} blog today with a layout that made all about one of our "favorite escape" spots -- the beach!  For this layout I used flair from 3 different flair sets and Amy Tangerine's Brave & Bold Collection.  Here is a look at my project:

Lots of color and lots of circles! The flair below came from the Tropical Vacation 2 Flair Set. It tucked in beside the title perfectly!

The #vacation flair came from the Hashtag Summer Flair set. I often like to give my flair a little next of tangled thread to sit upon.

Finally, my favorite, the "good life" flair came from the My Life 4 flair set. 
This was a fun layout to make. I made a video of my process if that suits your fancy! 

  

love you

Hello friends! I am up on the PLS blog today with another layout for you using the Frosty and Friends collection.  Here is a look at my project:

I'm going to be super honest will you and let you know that this all started with this tag from the Fuzzy Sock Die Cut pack and three hearts!  I saw them together and a layout was born!

I paired the tag with some of the 3/4 cards from the Hug In a Mug pack and and another tag and I ended up with a grid layout. This tag is one of my favorites! I stitched around the heart with embroidery floss.

This story is one of my favorites! I took a quote that her dad relayed to me for the journaling. I added typed journal strips to a tag for the win!

I absolutely love working with this collection. I think it is quite versatile and, as you can see, this layout isn't related to winter at all! But I also love all the little winter bits included! One of my favorite Pretty Little Studio Collections to date!

Thanks for stopping by, see you again soon! XO o.g.

Hi, friends! I am up on the {a flair for buttons} blog with a layout using flair from the Bee Mine flair set! Here is a look at my project:

To tell this story I decided to pull the yellow out of her shirt - and create a monochromatic look. I started with a couple of  Distress Oxides (Wild Honey and Mustard Seed) to create a space to house my photo and embellishments. I love using Distress Oxides and water to create backgrounds. Here is a close up of the flair. 

I grabbed a bunch of yellow flowers from Cocoa Vanilla Studio's Sunkissed collection to cluster around the page. Some came from the embellishment pack and some I fussy cut from patterned papers. Finally I used a stamp designed by Vicki Boutin to create more texture and pops of black around the page.

For the title I used Elle's Studio Jordan Alpha stamps (both the Outline and the Dots & Stripes). I filled some of the letters in with patterned papers as well. 

I love how this one turned out. I also made a video of the process, if that's something that suits your fancy!
