WOO HOO ANOTHER B&B CHALLENGE ENTRY

This is sent in by C.C.'s Cards and Crafts and I absolutely LOVE IT. I was telling her that this is one of my fav. fall things to do with my family. Thanks so much for sending it on over!! Adorable! So many great color ranges of browns and oranges! great great layout!

ANOTHER CHALLENGE ENTRY

This fantab layout comes to us from Jean's Crafty Corner I absolutely love this because black an white and anything is my fav. color combo!

Here's what she had to say about her layout : "I made this layout using the Gyspy Wanderings for the title, I layed ribbon and bows up the side and then used mini buttons in black and white to make a frame around the picture. The picture also has a black matt that I did faux stitching on with a white opaque pen. The paper is called linen white and black and has a neat texture to it, but I am not sure how well you can see that in the picture"

Here's a 12x12 I did of a pic of my daughter when she was just a lil girl. I put lil button brads down side up left side and in the ric-rack down bottom and a big button for the "O" in dolly. The butterflies are embossed using the Fiskars shape boss.. funn stuff!

BUTTONS AND BOWS WEEK, Day 4

Here is an awesome two page 12x12 layout from AbusyBee for our buttons and bows challenge. Carri has entered the same layout into a few other challenges too, go check out her site and see :)

" I used the Wild Card Cartridge for the button frame and the large buttons! All the rest is from my stash! This will be the last time I do that frame!! It took me forever to bling it up!! I used brads, eyelets, string, hemp, real buttons, and gems! "

BUTTONS AN DBOWS WEEK, Day 3

Here's a layout I did using a kit.This is a picture of my daughter being kinda goofy..which is totally her when she takes pictures. I forget where the kit came from sorry :( But I added flowery brads up top and the little button brads down the bottom as well as the pink ribbon and bows and i added the butterfly stickers.

BUTTONS AND BOWS WEEK

Here are some cards with the same bow technique sent to me by my SIL. She is a cardmaker, but thought we could use the same concept on our layouts. I was thinking I'd try this on my next page on the inside layer instead of brads next time.
