Spotlight for American Crafts...Makes me SMILE! :)

A quick post to share what I created for my Spotlight day for American Crafts DT.

I am so thrilled and excited for this year ahead with this AMAZING company and all of their products!

This layout is my current favorite for many reasons. I LOVE these two girls together. They are such a joy, and always off creating some fun adventures around my Aunt place in California. I really loved combining several of the new lines together for this layout. They all work so well together. Lately I've really been enjoying making banners with my patterned papers. For this layout, I created a fun banner frame to add movement to my page and draw the viewers eye right to the photograph. I really love the Roxie Alphabet Stamp set too. It's the perfect size for a subtitle, and really great to mix it up, as I did for my title, with a pen diluted with water to fill it in.

Supplies: Malibu Paper (35722) - Shoreline, Newport Paper (35724) - Shoreline, Fresh Blooms Paper (35630) - Neapoltain, Paige's Portraits Paper (35691) - Sketchbook, Sea Breeze Paper (35643) - Neapolitan, Lucky Laugh Paper (35640) - Neapolitan, Serendipity White (53291) - Thickers, Shane Letter Stickers (42221) - Remarks Books, Palette (42240) - Remarks, Spiral Notebook Border Punch (63054) - Knockouts, Roxie (85587) - Stamps

Here is a card I created for my daughter who is in the Air Force. I wanted something bright and cheerful for this card so the new Amy Tangerine Paper lines and embellishments were perfect!

Supplies: Pigment (42241) - Remarks, Surfboard (85584) - Delights, Journal Black (53337) - Thickers, Padma's Pattern Paper (35673) - Sketchbook, Haper's Hue Paper (35678) - Sketchbook, Ivory Impression Paper (35677) - Sketchbook

I get a day off tomorrow! Well...not really! I get to get caught up and get creative...so excited to have a day to create more! :)

I with you ALL a happy and super blessed week!

xoxo

Hello to all my favorite people! :)

Crate Paper also had a team up with PageMaps this month too...and I got to create this happy layout with their AWESOME sketch! :) I LOVE this layout, and the pictures of Olivia and my niece Marilyn! They have the sweetest little bond and it shows in all of the pictures I've captured of them!
