KaiserCraft Pearls

I simply LOVE KaiserCraft Pearls!!! They are so fun to use and there are so many colors to choose from. If you have not tried the KaiserCraft Pearls then you need to! For my layout I used the chocolate, copper and mango pearls.



I added some of the smaller sized pearls (copper & mango) onto my title letters. Then I used 3 of the largest chocolate pearls for my ...



I totally blinged out these flowers!



This photo shows how I accented my background paper with the pearls and of course another blinged out flower.

KI Memories Flourish

KI Memories is a company know for it's bright colors and bold patterns. At least that's what I always think of when I think of KI Memories. I fell in love with their new line called Flourish. I am normally more drawn to boy lines then the flowery girls lines. I think that is because I know I have more photos of my son, Erik then of my daughter Marissa. This is because she doesn't always let me take her picture. But anyway back to this awesome new line! The Flourish line is gorgeous!! The pattern papers are bold and I love the mix of bright colors as well as the black & white papers. Some of the papers are glitter accented, which I love. There are also so many different kinds of embellishments and accents that you can mix and match with..... Read the rest of my KI Memories CT Reveal!

Awesome Blossoms

Check out these fantastic Awesome Blossoms that I got to work with for my design team at Scrapadilly! These flowers really are awesome! On my layout and card I used both the Evening Garden and the Pacific Bay Awesome Blossoms.
Here's alittle bit about Awesome Blossoms: Awesome Blossoms by BonBon are hand made tree-free paper flowers made from the bark of the mulberry tree. Once a year the bark peels from the tree and is then processed by hand into paper. Unlike conventional paper the tree does not have to be cut down and it regenerates another layer of bark within 12 months, making it a renewable natural resource that does not deplete the environment. This natural paper takes less water to manufacture, uses no chlorine, and is naturally acid and lignin free.

And then on page 42 is my Christmas layout!

Bo Bunny's Flutter Butter

For my September CT Reveal at A Cherry On Top I worked with two different new Bo Bunny lines. One was Boo Crew (which I posted a couple of days ago) and the other line was Flutter Butter. Flutter Butter is such a soft pretty line. I love the colors and all the butterflies, flowers and swirls. I created four different layouts with this line. I was able to not only do two layouts about my daughter but I did two layouts about my son too. I love when a line is so versatile!
