Today, I have a scrapbook page to share using one of my favorite lines, My Little Yellow Bicycle. (I realize that I say this about every paper line out there!) When I first saw this line at Scrapbook Oasis, I knew I was not leaving without it! I loved the color, the patterns, and the embellishments. It is called Fresh Print Clothesline. It is so pretty, and such a fresh design!
I used a recent snapshot from our Easter holiday. When I saw this photo of Gabi and Roman, I knew it would be perfect for this paper.
"celebrate sunshine"
Supplies: patterned paper: My Little Yellow Bicycle(Canary Damask, Sky Blue Ledger, Spring Mix), Fabric paper: American Crafts, Dear Lizzy, Artisan Elements: Pink Paislee, Fabric tag: My Little Yellow Bicycle, Buttons: jenni bowlin, Flower stick pin: My Little Yellow Bicycle, Stamp: American Crafts, Dear Lizzy, Butterflies: Stampin Up, Paper flowers: Cricut. Other: Machine Stitching, String
Journaling reads: We were blessed to have a day full of sunshine. Roman, and Gabriela, I wish I could freeze this moment forever.
Few details:
Oh my stars! I am in love with the Artisan Elements by Pink Paislee. I simply gave it a quick wash with yellow paint, and using my sponge dauber, went over it with white. I tried to get into some of the grooves, so the pattern would be more defined. The paper flowers are cut from the Cricut, and I simply stacked two on top of one another, with you guess it......pop dots! ( Can you see the Dear Lizzie fabric pink and white circle, in the lower left hand corner? Just FYI, you can not run it through an embossing folder! LOL) I thought it would be fun to cut my butterflies out of this fabric, but it did not work.
Detail of butterflies. They were cut from the Stampin' Up! Embosslits Die , called Beautiful Wings! I love butterflies, so when I saw it in the catalog, I placed my order! This die, cuts the butterfly, and embosses it at the same time! I added a small pearl to the centers of them. (You know if see a butterfly, there will be some stitching!) LOL
Thanks for stopping by today! I am off to clean off my desk, stay off Facebook, and concentrate on my projects that are due! Wish me luck!
Hugs,
It's beautiful! Love all the delightful butterflies. Great title!!
