Precious

Hi all....I know it's been awhile since I posted anything.I have been really busy with my course but I did skip off a few times and made a couple of layouts but couldn't post them because they were future sketches for Creative Scrappers. My first reveal as a member of the Design team will be on Sunday and I am feeling a little nervous!

Anyway...I made this layout of my daughter using the beautiful Bloom & Grow papers from My Mind's eye....such pretty colors.I didn't do any distressing this time and whenever I don't distress, I feel as if I have left something out! I don't know how many times I have went to use the Websters bloomers and took them off again but they were perfect for these papers

. I knotted some ribbon and twisted it before I glued it to go around the circle. I made the butterfly using Gabriellep's technique found here but I used beads instead of clay and added a little diamond dust to the wings. You can't really see the embossing in the photo. 

 The letters and frame are from previous Scrap That! Kits and I tried Crackle Paint for the first time...love the look! The bird is from a stamp used on cardstock..just inked and added a little Stickles.

I will be back on Sunday to post my first Creative Scrappers Design Team layout...Sketch #125. Thanks so much for looking and have a Wonderful weekend. I will be studying!
