The last week or so has been too hot & humid to work outside, so I did a little scrappin'. When I first saw the Elizabeth Park line from Little Yellow Bicycle the colors seemed a little bold, but like many papers it grew on me :}} Slowly working my way through the mass of really bad photos from when my kids were littte. So many times I took just 2 photos. Mimi walking...2 photos. Matthew playing legos...2 photos. You get the idea. Plus almost all the indoor shots have very dark backgrounds, some of them almost black!
I adore these pics of Mimi, just look at how she is wrinkling her chin as she makes sure she gets the very last drop! The title is double stamped, once in grey and then again in pink slightly overlapping. Love the effect.
Some of the butterflies are punched and some fussy cut from the adorable butterfly patterned paper.
Then they are stitched down with floss and gems added.
Cardstock: Bazzill; patterned paper: Little Yellow Bicycle; acrylic stamps: Inkadinkado; ink: Clearsnap, Stampin' Up; spray ink: Clearsnap; stickers: Little Yellow Bicycle; journaling spot: Jillibean Soup; punches: EK Success, Martha Stewart; gems: Kaiser Kraft, Recollections; pen: Sakura; adhesive: Tombow; misc: floss, thread.
More layouts to share coming soon!

Completely adorable page!!! love that bit of darker misting aread you did on the yellow paper on the upper left hand corner!!!! :)
Okay, so that Live Simply cartridge, I got on ebay for $26 shipping included, which isn't too bad :) Now, the Hoot N Holler cartridge, that's $40 no matter where I look. But I bought a bundle from walmart.com, $60 for two lite catridges (select ones, but hoot and holler is in it), no shipping but tax.

Fantastic page. I'm scared of yellow, but I think you might have just inspired me to use it! Fantastic layering and I love the way you double stamped the title. Will have to remember that because single stamping always seems too flat too me.
