Paper Issues: 2017 Fall Crop: Supersize It!

Hi Creative Friends!

Are you playing along with the

 Paper Issues Fall Crop?! 

If not, come join us in the Paper Issues Friends & Fans Facebook group here

I am lucky enough to be hosting two of the Crop challenges,
& I am so super excited about it!
Here's my second challenge for the crop.....

Yup! Supersize it and go LARGE!!!

For this challenge you can either use a supersized photograph OR a supersized title for your layout.

Easy to play, but tons of fun (& you go in the draw to win some awesome prizes!)

Here's my sample layout for you....

"Major Heart Eyes"

Major heart eyes, indeed! Isn't this the most beautiful photo?!!

And yes, I supersized it to focus in on that gorgeous handhold! 

These two are inseparable, they really dote on one another - it's so lovely!

You'll spy that I used the stunning Pink Paislee: Paige Taylor Evans: Turn The Page collection for this layout. That sweet floral paper is just perfect for Spring or Fall memory keeping. 

And the embellishments are just divine!

Here's a few close ups for you.....

Just look at that sweet Puffy Sticker heart! It really pops against the black n white photo.

I am also LOVING the Fresh Start Icon Thickers (chipboard stickers) - there are so many cute designs!

And speaking of Thickers..... 

The New Day Printed Thickers are amazing!!!

They really are title perfection!

Feeling like you need a lil more Pink Paislee in your stash?

Paper Issues: 2017 Fall Crop: Sky's The Limit!

Hi Creatives!

I'm so excited! It's Paper Issues Fall Crop time!
Yay!!!

I love a good crop, and at Paper Issues we rock it!
I am lucky enough to be hosting two of the crop challenges, and here's my first one.....

Sky's The Limit!

For this challenge I want you to use up all those sky themed papers - think kites, hot air balloons, birds, butterflies, paper planes, clouds, rainbows etc. Basically if it flies, 

or you can see it in the sky ,

we want to see it on your page!

Here's my sample for you....

"Dream"

Oh isn't this beautiful! 

How quickly 'time' flies is the sentiment behind my layout. 

There's a lovely hidden letter on the back of this one for my not so little girl. What a dream she is!

You'll also spy the lovely Crate Paper Maggie Holmes: Carousel collection for this layout.

 I have made a feature of the kites pattern paper, Summertime and combined it with fussy cut kites, Chipboard Thickers & even the Carousel & Kites Free Cut File

Here's a closer look at all those kites....

Magical indeed!

And how about that stunning Puffy Word Sticker title......

Exquisite! So beautifully cut!

And let's not forget the real beauty on my page.....

I wish we could have kept her this little a bit longer....

She's growing up way too fast! Love her so!

And there you have it! 

My take on the Sky's The Limit challenge!

I do hope you'll join us in the Paper Issues Friends & Fans Facebook group here to play along!
