Here's the layout I promised to share yesterday - for
The Color Room Palette 87 - which I played with last
week & got in on time this time! (Yes I did a card AND
a layout this week) Surprised myself even LOL...
Really beautiful colours - this palette was simply irresistible!
I combined it with an equally gorgeous sketch from
Creative Scrappers which you can find here
I inverted the sketch & simplified it a bit by moving
my title down, thus eliminating the need for the extra
embellishing at the top.
I have this beautiful girl home for the holidays but am
having to share her with a {very nice} new boyfriend
as well as several friends - yup right now she is away
on the South Coast - but such is life - they grow up :)
I am STILL loving white...I actually had a crazy idea
earlier in the year to sell off the bulk of my other
cardstock colours!
I realise now that would have been a rash decision
{especially as I love to play at The Color Room!}
but nonetheless I do need to top up my stock
of whites often & love this swiss dot especially!
I am flying through my Prima bling swirls - gosh I
had forgotten just how much I LOVE the stuff!!
I misted the flower to get a slightly deeper shade
to better match the palette. The doily below is
a Fiskars punch, not a die, and I think you'll be
seeing a lot more of it on my pages in future!

Hi Helen, what a stunning layout!! That doily looks yummy!! Enjoy your weekend, my friend!! :)))
Oooh..this is gorgeous! I love that bling birdcage and all the lovely details! :)
She's starting to look quite grown up indeed. What do you think of the new boyfriend??
that's a punch? cool! does it only punch one size of circle? I'm having a hard time conceptualizing a circular border punch... .
You should know precisely what you are interested in when selecting bird cages. It is an extremely important choice for the well-being of the bird cage buy. The bird cage will likely be home for almost all of your bird's everyday living, so the cage should be a secure along with safe spot for birds, as well as a pleasant place to play and rest.
I love this page, Helen!! Beautiful!!! everything looks perfect!!!
Hugs!!!
Beautiful combination of colours Helen. Enjoy having your girl home with you :).
