Mix and Match Monday (Pebbles DT)

Happy Monday! I hope your weekend was wonderful. We did have a few bumps, the last couple of days. Gabi only made it to one day of her competition in Long Beach. She became really sick on Saturday, after the competition. We ended up taking a trip to Kids Doc, just to make sure it was not anything too serious. She is feeling much better, and luckily was able to go to school today! 
Today, on the Pebbles Blog, it is Mix and Match Monday. Our challenge was to use different Pebbles collections to create a project.
I chose to work with Lil Miss, and the Linnie Bell to create a scrapbook page. The snapshot on this page, is from 2006! I wish my little Macie was still this tiny. On this day, we were all at a park. I was trying to take a few pictures of my children. (Steven too) However, Macie was not very cooperative.  LOL Once she was in Daddy's arms, she was all laughs, and smiles!
"love, laughter, and Giggle"
 
Supplies used:
Cardstock: Bazzill, Patterned Paper: Linnie Bell Pearl, and Lil Miss, Sticker letters, Lil Miss, Chipboard: Pebbles Chips, Sticker Flowers: Lil Miss, Candy Dots: Pebbles, Stamp: Sandy Lion, Buttons: Making Memories. Bumblebee punch Martha Stewart, Other: string, and Machine stitching
Few details:

These flowers are stickers, and I simply embellished the centers with buttons. These buttons are by Making Memories. They are the first style of buttons I purchased! This was so long ago, when Michaels first began to carry their product!  I wanted to add some movement, so I kind of looped my string in and, around the flowers. The bumblebee punch is by none other than, Martha Stewart! I love her punches, and seriously will never feel like I own enough of them! (Did you notice I machine stitched the bottom of the page!) Feeling a little bit more comfortable each time(:

 

So cute! I found a place where you can buy it online, right Here! With the beautiful Spring weather in full swing, this punch is a must have in your inventory! On my page, I punched a yellow, and a brown bumblebee. Then layered them together with a little bit of adhesive. I just bent the brown wings upward to give them dimension. I finished them with a candy dot by Pebbles!
  
I will admit that this punched out circle was already decided for me!  LOL I only had one sheet of this patterned paper left. However, I already had punched out a circle! So I decided to make a home for the bumblebee. I layered a piece of the Linnie Bell pearl papeer underneath. I used a die by Quickutz, to embellish the outside of the circle. Added some handstitching to finish! (The scallop circle is a punch also by Martha Stewart.)
Thanks for taking a peek, and do not forget to hop on over to the Pebbles Blog! I am hopping over there too, because I am always inspired by the other designers projects! They are one talented group!
Have a fabulous day,
