You can read about that in the yesterdays post. Just scroll down a little bit...
I am using the beautiful kit that Erica sent me from Your Scrapbook Stash and this month it was full of "The Girls Paperie" goodness. I just adore everything she sent me!!
The papers and gorgeous embellishments that I received turned out to be quite perfect for the challenge at The Color Room this week.
This is my take on the palette # 64:
The layout is done on a base of stitched layers. I love the look of it.
And here is the current palette and sketch. I did not use the sketch this time, but many times I find it is such a great way to get started!
Isn't this gorgeous.? The colours just scream Summer to me...
Here are some close ups of my layout:
I used the Kitsch Market trims to embellish my layout. I also had the Vintage Whimsy Glitter Charms.
All the contents are just so adorable and perfect for a girl's layout.
I used the narrowest of the Trims to fasten the little charm in the shape of a tiny little cage. The other shape is a clock face and you get six altogether.
The red glitter trim at first reminded me of Christmas, but I decided that I was not going to wait six months before using it,...so I chose to use it now and add some whimsy to my page.
I did a lot of layering and stitching of my different layers.
I love the look of the stitched upturned slightly distressed papers.
In this picture you can see what the red glitter trim brings to my layout. It puts a smile on my face at least!
The lacy border was made using a Martha Stewart border punch.
I took so many photos of my layout I don't really think you need to see them all,..lol.... but for those who made it all the way to the end here's a small collage of the different corners of my page.
As I know that "The Girls Paperie" will not continue as a brand and part of Advantus I am now off to hoard some more of their products. :-D
Hope to see you soon again!!
Gorgeous work. LOVE IT! Yep..love them too and sad to see they will be no more :o)

Pretty pretty pretty page Bente, feels so good to make something really girly once in a while doesn't it! so many gorgeous details here. Still got MIL's old Husqvarna, yay for stitching! hade ni det bra i midsommar? lill-Alice hade sitt besök hos veterinären igår, han hittade en stor cysta också. Tackomlovom var den godartad. Duktig liten tjej och syrran som kommer och tvättar öronen som sticker ut ur tratten. Kramis jamis
