Smile.....

Hi everyone...

Today I'm going to share my scrapbook layout using papers from My Mind's Eye, Follow Your Heart series...

I love the design of the kraft paper that I used as the background paper, it's just simple and clean
and it brings out the embellishments...
I cut the hexagonal pattern papers to decorate the layout... cut some flower petals using some dies...
stamped some flower fines, pierced and layered them... made borders using Martha Steward paper punch...
using paint dabber to coloring some border and flowers...
made some effects on the layout by stamping the dotted stamps from Tim Holtz using the white chalk ink






made the bird cage using template from The Crafters Workshop and molding paste and colored it....

I thought of something sweet and cute... so I decided to decorate the layout  using Tilda from Magnolia stamps and Doohickeys...



Papers from Crate Papers
Made a frame using Martha Steward border punch and sprayed some Glimmer Mist on it. Added some accents on the background at the corners using Tim Holtz stamps and laces...
I colored all the stamps using Distress Inks...added some textures in the border of the pictures and the doily with Crackle Paints



Put some glitter on the butterfly... stamped and embossed the lovely flowers on the heart dies using Zing embossing powder...



stamped the love letter on the tag...put some ribbon and twine and added a charm... oh I really love the rocking horse charm ! ... it's very cute...



put some sticker alphabets from Echo Park on the banner and added some Crackle Paints on the cloud dies...


...and there it is...
