I created this layout for these creative blog challenges:
I used LOTS of old plain flowers, and layered them, securing them with staples! I was happy to use up some of these flowers from my stash!
**I used metal colored staples, and metal paperclips.**
I frequently forget about using my stapler, although I love the result every time I do! I also have had these paperclips for years,. and am so excited about using them!!!
What a unique challenge! I used a tiny square punch and lots of my favorite scraps of paper and created my mini patchwork! I will certainly use this technique again!
I used these supplies, tools and products in my layout:
Simple Stories Year-O-Graphy paper collection
Fiskars tiny square punch
Prima flowers
Recollections flowers
Close To My Heart paperclips
Jenny Bowlin font stickers
American Crafts thickers
Making Memories staples
Jenny Bowlin font stickers
Bazzill cardstock
This layout, and this photo, reflects one of my major personality traits - curiosity - especially about nature and even moreso about animals! One of my favorite activities when we go to any body of water is to search for animal life! And this layout reflects some of my favorite elements to use when I scrap - FLOWERS, pink, polka dots, layers and distressing! What do you like about nature?
