In Love with Fringe

Fringe seems to be a current trend in scrapbooking supplies. I wanted to create a feature out of fringe in this layout, so I made a giant fringe heart! To soften the look a bit, I included vellum fringe in between the patterned paper fringe. 

I used the Crate Paper Hello Love collection, I am head over heals in love with this collection. The color combination is just perfect.

Take a look and see how I created this layout!

Loving Large Titles

Over the past several months I have been trying out different design styles on my scrapbook pages in an effort to find my personal style. I am relatively new to 12x12 layouts so I am still finding the design aesthetic that I like the most. 

Currently I am in love with a simple, graphic style. Using a lot of black and white patterns, large text and clean lines is very appealing to me. At the moment I have a crush on large titles. For this layout I created a large title at the bottom of the page where each letter is in a different patterned paper. I used my Felicity Jane kits for this layout. I also did some hand stitching to add some texture. Hand stitching it tedious and time consuming, but it is a great way to be crafty while watching a favorite movie. 

To see how this layout came together take a look at the process video!

Obsessed with Bows

Well, it is fair to say that I have an obsession with bows! I just love bows! I have hardly made a scrapbook page recently that doesn't have a bow on it somewhere. In this layout I allow my bow obsession to take over!

Craft Organization: My Scrapbooking Table

Currently I am using my dining room table as my scrapbooking headquarters. We really don't use our dining room table, so it is not a big deal that I have completely taken it over with my scrappy stuff. I really like working on the dining room table because I have a much larger work space than the desk in my den. When I am scrapbooking I like to watch TV or movies and the dining room table has the perfect view of the TV. The dining room table is the perfect spot for me to get crafty!
