Modern Mom Layout

I finished this layout yesterday. I love how it turned out. My Mom was trying out her new headphones on Saturday so I grabbed my camera to get some good shots.  The green leaves and birds are cut from a border ribbon thing (by Autumn Leaves). The patterned paper is from Stampin' Up. Sorry about all the mess on my desk.

I was going to make a different style of paper flowers but they woudn't have worked. But I did finally make some paper roses.  They look amazing but are quite difficult to make.

This simple circle paper turns into this really cool paper rose. I am so glad I actually tried this out. It would look so gorgeous on vintage style layouts or cards.  This is actually the second one I made. The first one isn't that good.

 I've been busy today sanding down keys (wooden ones) and adding dimensional liquid glue stuff and sanding some more.  Shh... this is to do with secret project #2 and #3.

Okay, I am giving this new bright, modern design a chance. It's growing on me, but it's a lot brighter than my last one.

I did get one scrapbook page done today. And I made some paper roses but then I couldn't decide on a layout for the photographs. (One is below). A double page layout with paper flowers and bright green felt birds? Or a single page Rock Star Grunge style layout? I am using three photographs. All 6 x 4.

I also started working on one (just one) of my secret projects. Hopefully I can get some good work done on it. It's something that I will be able to do while we are traveling - so that's good. I am wondering if I should do a freebie/giveaway to see how/what the response is.

Just a little quick reminder before I go and have a nice rest, is to stop by my Shop because you can still get 10% off everything.

New Blog Layout

I'm not sure about this new layout style. I like the pattern and there's lot of clean space but... maybe I just need to get used to the new look.  I'll try to leave it alone for a while - try to get a feel for it.
