Paige Evans + Silhouette Design Team - wooohooo

Hey guys,

One can tell I have no Instagram account, I have too much time on my hands! Well, the whole story managed to ruin a perfectly happy day yesterday and left me without any mojo - so blogpost it is :D.

If you follow me on Instagram (or Paige), you probably saw that she is now designing cut files which you can get your hands on in the Silhouette Design Store. 

I'm so honored and excited to have been invited to her Design Team! You know that I'm obsessed with cut files, I love Paige's collections, so I feel like this is a great fit for me!


We all created a layout for yesterday, here's mine. I used the Half Flower cut file and Paige's wonderful new collection, Turn the Page.



I cut out the file from white textured card stock, 2 bigger and 2 smaller ones. I then started backing the bigger ones with patterned paper. I was actually planning to have a colorful layout but while I was backing the files I changed my mind. It happens a lot!

Once I was done, I also backed the smaller ones, but these only with one paper. Then I arranged my flowers the way I wanted them and adhered them to the background. I used some foam adhesive to attach the smaller ones to add a bit of dimension and interest.

I fussy cut a few butterflies in different sizes as well as flowers and combined these with a few other embellies: die cuts, puffy stickers and wood veneer and glued these on my half flowers.



I tucked my photo behind one of the flowers and added my title for which I used the chipboard alphas. 



I wrote my journaling, added the date, and I was pretty much done. Oh, and black splatters of course! 

Hope you like my layout! I'll be back with a new one next week! 

Thanks for stopping by,

Guesting at Pinkfresh Studio - Escape the Ordinary

Hi there friends,

I'm so honored to have been asked to guest at Pinkfresh Studio with their new collections! I've been a fan ever since I started scrapping! I never was one for anything mainstream and Pinkfresh Studio is anything but. I love their unique designs and color combos and all the inventive embellishments! They always come up with the coolest stuff!

The first collection I worked with was the gorgeous Escape the Ordinary collection. You can find my post following this link.

So here I will just add a couple more photos!










I will be back with projects I created with Boys Fort - the coolest boy line ever!

I'd like to take the opportunity to ask all of you to send positive vibes to Texas, Pinkfresh Studio is from Houston and they can surely use some prayers just like everyone in that area. 

I can't believe we were just there on holiday in July! 

Have a great weekend you guys!
Thanks for stopping by,

My Instagram account disappeared - what the what?!

Hey friends,
 
Just dropping in quickly to let you all know that my Instagram account disappeared and there doesn't seem to be a thing I can do about it...I'll sit and wait a couple of days, if nothing happens, I'll create a new account. I'm completely paralyzed...Why on Earth would this happen? Who is bothered by a friggin scrapbooking account? Please hackers get a life.
 
It's what it is. I guess I won't be able to sleep tonight, but hey. Here's to new beginnings!
