Breathtaking- Bird is the Word

Don't forget about my giveaway here

I've made a new layout for the Bird is the Word challenge. The word to use this time is BREATHE.

When I made the layout I actually thought the word to use was Breath so I titled it Breathtaking. I guess its all from the same root so its acceptable. I do love this breathtaking view in this layout. I've used a different photo of this place in another layout because I love it so much.

I used a sketch from Paper Stories as an inspiration for this layout (see Below). I flipped it around to fit the way I wanted this layout to be.

The papers of course are from Webster's Pages and the large flower is from Manorhouse Creations. This is one of my favourites of theirs. I only used one flower (which is rare for me lol) but it has an amazing effect. The brown fussy cut flowers are from the MH packaging that came with the flower. Doesn't it match perfectly?

Materials Used

Papers: Webster's Pages: In Love, Garden Gala

Flower: Manorhouse Creations and packaging

Martha Stewart Punches

Dark bark Fluid chalk ink

Sweet

For my giveaway press here

I think I use the word Sweet a lot in my layouts, but then again my daughter is so sweet I can't help myself!! So here is another layout titled sweet about my daughter who just turned 6 last weekend.

Last month I finished my term with a few design teams and therefore I had free time this month to participate in a few challenges. This is something I haven't done in a while and its so much fun!! I made this layout for 2 challenges.

The first challenge is a sketch from the Pion Designs Blog and I used their beautiful "For Mother" papers.

The second challenge is an inspirational challenge from 13 Arts. Aida, the owner of 13 Arts, designed these beautiful papers in pink and blue hues. The challenge of course is to use these 2 colors on a page inspired by the picture below. The papers are called "Frosted Life" and they are gorgeous. I can't wait to get my hands on some of them!!

Materials Used

Papers: Pion Designs

Flowers: Manorhouse Creations, Prima, Kaisercraft, I am Roses
