Hello, Lily Bee Friends. Leslie and Patricia here today with a challenge for you featuring projects with a mix of all the new Lily Bee collections - Persnickety, Autumn Spice, and Christmas Cheer.
Our challenge for you today is to scrap about yourself.
For my layout, I wanted to use photos that were about who I am right now. Favorites, habits, daily life. Taking these photos with my phone, I was able to capture my daily life.
The first thing I did was use the Persnickety polaroid stamp to stamp on different blues and yellows from each one of the new lines, then cut them out to use as a matte for each one of the photos. I also used the Autumn Spice stamp to create another border by the large cluster on the right. The ABC stickers were perfect for long descriptions for each "polaroid" and snapshot of my life. I added a little handwriting to each to personalize them more.
I used different blue and yellow mixed stickers from each colloection and created little clusters around the border of the layout.
Supplies: Autumn Spice (Mixed Stickers, ABC Stickers, Stamps, Nutmeg Paper, Pumpkin Spice), Christmas Cheer (Mixed Stickers, ABC Stickers, Figgy Pudding Paper), Persnickety (Mixed Stickers, ABC Stickers, Uppity Paper, Huffy Paper, Finicky Paper)
I am very excited to have Leslie joining me on this challenge. Besides being crazy talented at scrapbooking, Leslie scrapbooked about being an antique addict. I love how she scrapbooked about this fun hobby.
Here is what Leslie had to say about her project:
I’m so excited to be posting for my first time with Lily Bee! It’s been so much fun playing with everything & putting these gorgeous lines together.
My favorite thing is to layer, add patterns, layer and layer some more. I wanted to mimic my love for antiquing by showering my page full of hearts.
What I like the most is that everything Lily Bee makes goes perfectly together. Mixing and matching each pattern completed my entire design.
We hope you are inspired to scrap about yourself. Thank you for joining us today.
