If you just hopped onto my blog, you can start here and work your way around as this hop is circular. If you arrived from Wendy's blog {Doddsy Designs}, then you are on the right path. And, don't worry if you get lost, you'll find the complete list of participating Close to my Heart consultants HERE.
Ok, this time around was a challenge in finding my mojo ... I just could not get the creative juices flowing to inspire me. Perhaps, I just wasn't feeling 'spring-like' as the bitter cold is still lingering around ... yucky weather ... where's the sunshine? ANYWHO ... here's the end result!
Now since Easter is just a few weeks away, I thought this would be perfect! It's not that often I have a layout ready to go ... but my boys love {coloring easter eggs}! Here, I used Hopscotch paper packet from the Seasonal Expressions catalog and cut various sizes of pennants and layered them. And for the banner, I cut a few pieces of the pattern paper, folded each one over and adhered it to the hemp cord. I am loving single page layouts these days ... how about you?
To embellish, I tried to use up items from my stash this time ... like buttons and alphabet letters. For the heart, I grabbed it from the Chalk it up Assortment. It's great to mix and match collections. And I have to admit, I'm pretty happy on how it all came together despite my procrastination!
