In Bloom by My Little Shoebox

The In Bloom line by My Little Shoebox is one of the prettiest, most feminine papers I've come across lately. When I received my shipment in the mail the first thing I thought was, man this pretty and how in the world am I going to incorporate these papers into pages about boys? So I challenged myself, which you will see later in this post.

First up is a "Sorry" Card. I used an embossing folder and my Epic Six to deboss (I just flipped the embossing folder) the bottom of the card. I layered the flowers, the flower tops were cut into strips first and then painted with pixie dust blingz. I wrote the sentiment, then cut it out and painted it with pixie dust blingz as well.

here's a close-up of the flowers

This next layout is one of my latest favorites!! This is a photo of my mom and I taken last month in Bermuda. I went super duper girly on this one and I love it! I think my mom (who has since been converted into a scrapper) will, too!
I used this layout that I created over 2 years ago as inspiration for this one.

I got a little creative with the transparent overlay. Instead of cutting out the images, I used my butterfly punch and the results are beautiful little one-of-a-kind embellishments for my page.

There was a lot of hand cutting going on for this page! My cutter bees got quite the work-out! So did my stickles! I crumpled most of the flowers and layered them using pop dots for added dimension. I also cut fringes in some of the flowers for that extra "touch me" appeal.

I really love these glazed alpha (see the word "babes"). They are an ingenious little invention that add the look of glitter without all of the mess.


The photo on this next layout is so close to my heart. Troy took this picture of Donovan and I on my very first Mother's Day. Donovan was about 3 1/2 months old in this picture. I remembered feeling so happy that day. I couldn't wait to become a mom!
I must have been in an embossing state of mind because I used it here, too. Hand cutting, stitching, scalloped borders give this layout all right finishing touches. One of the elements about My Little Shoebox papers that I love most, is the fact the there are always images large enough to cut out and make into personalized embellishments.
Here you can get a closer look at the butterflies that I punched from the overlay, the scalloped edges and the hand cut flowers.

To create this next layout, I took on a dual challenge. Suzy challenged the DT to scraplift one of DT member's, Michelle L.'s layouts seen here. Instead of actually scraplifting the layout, I took some elements from Michelle's layout titled "Oh So Happy" and used it to create my own version. I loved her color blocking and stitching and how the white background made the elements pop--these are the elements that I incorporated here.
I also challenged myself to create a masculine layout using this uber feminine line. I didn't want to use pink or lavender, nor flowers of any type. Sounds hard right? It was my way of showing MLS consumers how versatile these papers can be, even if you don't think so at first sight.
So how did I do?
I took the blue and yellow patterned papers and cut strips from them. Since I was only working with 2 of the 6 different papers in this line, I had to really put on my thinking cap. I decided to add lots of texture! I cut shapes from the patterned papers and sanded around the edged before adhering them to my strips.
I did something similar to the brown cardstock. Instead of sanding the circles, I ran them through my embossing machine and then adhered them to the cardstock. I love the added texture!
I cut the artisan die cuts in half and layered them across the top. I used a border punch on the small blue strip to make it look like a blue/yellow piece of patterned paper and then stitched it across the edge.
I used twine to create a visual triangle and add texture. The chipboard letters were originally lavender, but that didn't present a problem. I just peeled off the top layer (one of the great things about chipboard) to reveal the raw texture and outlined them.
Looking at the previous 3 projects, one would never guess that this project was created from the same line!
here's a close-up of the textured tone on tone circles

...and a close-up of the chipboard, originally lavender as well as the sanded tone on tone shapes.

I hope you've enjoyed this LONG post and possibly learned something new!
Take care!

Shimmerz And Projects Using Pink Paislee Products

Hey there...happy Tuesday! I have been busy, busy in my craft room creating projects for different things... you should see the mess! LOL! I've been promoting Purple Cows' HUGE Design Contest lately and I haven't posted as many projects but I've got some goodies to share today, though... 2 layouts using papers from one of my favorite companies...Pink Paislee!

I love how Pink Paislee papers coordinate allowing me to mix and match newer lines with previously released lines and still maintain a cohesive look!! To create this LO, I used papers from Spring Fling, Tinsel Town, Enchanting and Office Lingo. The alpha stickers are from Fetching and work very well with these papers, too!

I took this photo a couple years ago at the mall just before Christmas...my favorite time to go to the mall and decided now was a perfect time to scrap it, especially with Christmas being right around the corner! Can you believe it?

journaling: Nothing puts me in a better mood during the holiday season than taking in all of the holiday hoopla at the mall. I don't know if it's the gigantic Christmas tree and decorations, the fake snow, watching the kiddies wait patiently in line for Santa, or watching shoppers go to and fro in search of that perfect gift. I love it all and for me, the season isn't complete without a few trips to the mall.

I popped my paper pierced tree up on pop dots and used one of my favorite products on the market, Shimmerz Paints, to spruce it up. I painted the centers of the circles with Hottie Pink Blingz and painted the tree trunk with Antique Lace Shimmerz (new Fall release).


I couldn't wait to scrap the photos on this next layout; I took them at Donovan's graduation, but needed the right inspiration to really pull it off. I purchased the new Expressions chipboard alphabet from Scrapbook Expo and knew I had to use them...the color was too perfect! I went stash digging and found a great mix of Pink Paislee papers from Sweet Cakes and Fascinating to compliment my photo. I used the swoops to highlight the first part of my title and also to mimic a gust of breath. The dymo labels were used to help add journaling from the story of the 3 Little Pigs. How perfect is that mini Jenni Bowlin bingo card? It was the right color and everything! Love it when that happens!
journaling: Donnie, you are a natural! On the day of your pre-school graduation, you stood up in front of all the parents and performed your lines without fear or hesitation. My favorite part was watching you play the role of the Big Bad Wolf...you really got into the character. Just check out that sneer, you look scarier than the wolf!
I scraplifted one of my older layouts to create this one.
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
I also have another RAK winner to announce!
NITASHA...congratulations, you are the lucky winner of the bottle of Shimmerz Spritz, and the My Little Shoebox chipboard alpha and glazed alpha!!! Thanks so much for becoming a fan/blog follower of Purple Cows and for telling them I sent you!!!
Email your addy to me @ tanisharenee74@hotmail.com and I will send your package to you ASAP!
Have a great day everyone!!!

Purple Cow Projects AND RAK Winners!

Designing for Purple Cows is so amazing! Not only do I have the opportunity to work with top notch trimmers (and other great tools), I also get to work with some fabulous partner product!

For this layout, I used Cosmo Cricket's new Haunted line...it's not just for Halloween! The papers paired perfectly with the rub-ons from Hambly and the strip of magic mesh added just the right amount of texture to the top of my photo. I inked the edges of the background, which is actually a piece of thin chipboard that comes in paper packs, with clearsnaps chalk ink. I used Purple Cow's Ultimate trimmer II to trim the chipboard to 12x12. The low-profile safety guillotine cutter is safe for little fingers to use, but strong enough to cut thin chipboard!

You know just about every project I create has to have some shimmerz on it. I sprayed the background with mudpie spritz and then used Olive Branch spritz to change the chunky rickrack from a mushroom color to the green that you see here. I also painted the foam thickers and the center of the pumpkins' eyes with gold glimmer blingz for a fun look!

I lifted this layout from Leah, a very talented scrapbook artist.

This card was just to fun to make! I used partner product from Core'dinations, Imaginisce, and glue arts to create it!

I ran a piece of black magic cardstock through my epic six using cuttlebug's spots and dots embossing folder. I then sanded to embossing to reveal the core color (this is one of my favorite features of this brand of cardstock). I used the B-sides of the Spooky Town line from Imaginisce along with the cutest Halloween stickers to form my sentiment.
