Waking up with Grapic 45!

I just wanted to drop in a share a layout today that I created for Scrappy Chic using the bright and beautiful Bohemian Bazaar line from Graphic 45.

 

First let me start by telling you I have never used Graphic 45.... I know its beautiful but I never thought it was my style and I never had any idea where to start.

 

So you could imagine my shock and fear when I found Graphic 45 in my August kit from Scrappy Chic.

But after taking it home and staring at the brand name forever...

 I realized Angela was right to give to me I really loved the bright colors and all the flowers!

 

So I went to work and this is what I ended up with and I'm pretty happy with it!

 

Products Used: Graphic 45 Bohemian Bazaar Cardstock, Studio Calico Wood Veneers, Prima Bling & Mesh, Jillibean Soup Sticker, Kaiser Bling, Copic Marker, Spellbinders Dies & EK Success Punches.

A bit of details for fun!

 

I made all of these flowers using my scraps!

If you want to know how hop on over to S.W.A.T. for toady's Basic Training to learn how :)

 

 

a bit of bling and wood veneers...

 

I colored the wood veneers with my copic

markers and I added a bit of scrap behing the letters for an extra pop of color!

 

Thanks for stopping by today !

Getting Ready for School!

Its that time of year when every parent is happy and yet a bit sad that school is about to start and for us its a first! But Sydney is so excited to start the Early Fives program. Everyday She runs around the house with her backpack and every night she asks if tomorrow she can go to school. I only hope that she keeps feeling this way after she starts!

A bit about my layout, I only used scraps! Which worked great with the pretty sketch over at PageMaps. Here is the sketch:
