Another layout with "The ScrapCake" "The Bright Side of Life" and a feature at The Paper Variety!


As I told you recently I managed to finally get hold of the previous collections from "The ScrapCake" by Karola Witczak. I have so enjoyed playing with my papers and tags. 
I have spent a little time the last few evenings to finish my scond layout that  want to share with you.



I love using my Cheery Lynn doily dies at the moment, or should I say I love them still...
I added a lot of blooms, mostly Prima, but also others from my stash.



 The title letters are from American Crafts Thickers. I used parts of a thin metal decoration as embellishments too.I found it in the sale and there are a lot of little branches to be cut off.



I fussy cut the roses off some of the papers. What looks like tags with the journaling on is what was left of one of the half sized papers after I cut away the roses from the other side.
There are quite a lot of useful elements for example to cut out.


 A close up of some of my layering.



My flower cluster with a close up of the metal twigs. I also added some vintage lace.



I love those Prima blooms. They are so soft and feminine.

This afternoon I took my layout ouside briefly to get a better photograph. Unfortunately one of these flowers was not stuck down properly and just ble away.... 
I looked for it for a while but the wind took it!
That is so typical :-)


Before I go I am happy to tell you that another layout I made with The Scrapcake papers 
was featured today at The Paper Variety.
Made me smile!!





I hope all of you find something to make you happy too!!
TGIF!!
