I'm so happy to share Imaginisce's new collection, "Bon Voyage". I love the rich colors, fabulous patterns, and great coordinating accessories (diecuts, stickers, and stamps). I'm sharing 2 layouts and 1 card I have created. This collection is perfect for so many occasions.
I just love this pic of me and Houston. The layout came together so easily. I used my new fav Cricut cartridge, "Elegant Edges", to create the diecut papers.
The coordinating papers, diecuts, and stickers make creating cards a snap.
Hop over to the Paper Craft Planet blog to read about your 3 chances to enter. I loved creating these cards with the new Sept Whimsie Doodle images and patterned paper by Imaginisce, My Little Shoebox, and Little Yellow Bicycle. 
What a wonderful pairing...My Little Shoebox and Punky Sprouts! The MLS design team had the pleasure of designing with Punky Spouts chipboard albums. This fun and funky album was perfect for our family trip to the Kentucky State Fair. 
I decorated my album with the MLS "Playtime" collection--a wonderfully youthful Summer collection. 
This album was so much fun to decorate. It has chipboard, acyrlic, and canvas pages. I used distress ink on the canvas to give it an outdoor, "day at the fair" look. 
I punched holes down the side of the pages and braided ribbon through for a fun, colorful accent.
It was great to include so many pics of a fun, family day at the fair. We saw so many animals, crafts, and blue ribbon winners. The kids had a blast on the midway rides.
Supplies:
I have such a fun and fabulous collection to share with you today. It is the "Playtime" collection by My Little Shoebox. It reminds me of swinging in the park and riding bikes on a Summer day. This collection was perfect for a layout featuring my husband and daughter hamming it up. We are revealing projects created with this new collection today on the MLS blog.
These sweet, soft colors are also great for cards and home decor projects.
I'm excited to share with you my latest creations with the "Mr & Mrs" collection from Best Creation. The black and white glittered patterned papers are just beautiful and perfect for any sophisticated project. This altered journal with instructions is featured today on the Best Creation blog and at Paper Craft Planet. (I'm giving away some Best Creation goodies when you leave a comment at the Paper Craft Planet link :)
I also created this pretty fan using the "Mr & Mrs" collection. So fun and great for a bridal shower or even a birthday party.
My second card was created with a beautiful digi stamp by Tiffany Doodles. I used the Strawberry Hearts Digital Stamp. I didn't do much to this card other than layer with cardstock, machine stitch around the outer edge, and add a sentiment. I colored the image with Copic Markers. The image is so pretty, it doesn't need a lot of other accents. Hop over to Tiffany Doodles this weekend. They are having a 3-day blog hop with lots of goodies to giveaway.
I'll admit it. I have a 2-page layout phobia. I can never seem to get both pages to flow into one layout. My latest DT assignment with Best Creation was to create a 2-page layout. EEK! But...I am SO happy with my finished project. I used the uber-fun collection, "Let's Party". Bright patterned glitter paper and coordinating stickers really made this layout come together. 
The great chipboard letters/numbers and mini letter stickers are just perfect. I love painting the BC chipboard to match my latest layout.
Hop over to the Best Creation blog to check out the other 2-page layouts and all of the BC fabulous collections.
I created this layout for the challenge using the fun "Santa's Little Helper" collection. I tweeked the sketch a bit to include 3 4x6" pics. I can't wait to see what you create for this challenge.
I hope you are having a wonderful weekend. The weather is so beautiful here. We spent the day at a local festival. Lots of great crafty inspiration. I spent last night in my craft studio designing a few cards for this week's Moxie Fab World challenges. I do LOVE a Moxie Fab challenge. The first card is for the Fabulous Felt Challenge. Don't you just love the texture felt adds to a project? For the card above, I created this kooky felt owl with a template from my Cricut. I used the Cricut cartridge, "Hoot and Holler" (my new fave :) I machine stitched the card, but carefully hand stitched the owl. I have a new love for anything teal. Hop over to the blog and enter the challenge or check out all of the amazing entries.
My second card, "Love You", was designed for this week's Tuesday Trigger at Moxie Fab World. I used 2 of my fav stamps: the wooden background stamp by Hero Arts and butterfly stamp by Stampin Up. I love how you can see the woodgrain through the butterfly wings. It almost looks like the butterfly has been carved into a tree trunk. Check out this inspiration pic...
The love banner, wood texture, and the great earthy colors inspired me to create this birthday card for my MIL. Hop on over and join in on the challenge.
