Papertake Weekly - anything goes with Lili of the Valley

Hi friends! I sure hope you're having a wonderful start to your week! It's Tuesday and that means it's time for a new challenge from Papertake Weekly! Since it's the first Tuesday of the month, that means the challenge is an "anything goes" challenge, and you have an option of using flowes. We're being sponsored by the awesome company Lili of the Valley. I LOVE their images and have used this adorable Rosie With Cake. Isn't she just the cutest??!!

She's colored with Copic markers and then cut out with oval and petite scalloped oval Nestabilities. The flowers are from Wild Orchid Crafts and the leaf punch is Martha Stewart. The ribbon of course is May Arts 100% silk ribbon from Stamp and Create, and the crown charm is from one of my other favorite shops, Bunny Zoe's Crafts.

Please be sure and visit Papertake Weekly to see the rest of the wonderful creations by the Designers, and then we would love it if you'd grab your paper and glue and play along with us! Thanks for stopping by to see me today, and hope to see you back again soon! Hugs!

Winter Wonderland using Spellbinders

I have news to share - I did not make the cut on round two of tryouts for the Spellbinders team.  I was disappointed, but I know that their team is highly competitive.  The good news is that I may now show my projects with you!

My entry for round one was this 12 x 12 inch layout.  I used two colored  sheets of cardstock topped with snowflake printed paper.  The snowflake print made a lovely, low-key background on which to build the layout elements.  The first element I added was a Stampin' Up stamp which reads "Winter Wonderland" stamped on my snowflake print.

I used my Grand Calibur with grand label one to cut the two layer matting and the main photo.  I used nesties label one to cut the mats and the smaller photo.  I also used snowflakes number one and cut red and blue embellishment snowflakes.  The snowflakes were topped with red buttons tied with white embroidery floss.

My page border was created using a Spellbinders lacey border cut four times.  I mitered the corners and topped the corners with snowflakes or tags.  The WINTER tag at the bottom left was created using label 14 and a stamp.  I penned in the date at the bottom of the label. 

I will admit that I was a disappointed at not making the cut, but really it was fun to try out.  And I was able to get this great photo scrapped!!

Remember that I have blog candy up for grabs in the previous post.  A winner will be drawn a Thursday.

Orosman and Zafira is a story of war, honor and love all wrapped into one. This is a wonderful stage play that combines a great mix of variety. Colorful, wonderful, intense and brilliantly produced. I am raring to get my sights anew with this one great production. Truly poetry in motion.
