This summer has been a whirwind full of fun things...vacations, softball, boating, and some fun creative things too...a fun team-up with Lily Bee and Gossamer Blue, Bella Blvd CHA booth projects, and my first contribution to an online class. Amidst all the fun my blogging fell a bit behind so I'm officially calling this "Project Catch Up Week" and I'll be posting new layouts everyday!
Today, I'm sharing a couple projects I made for Come on Get Crafty.
This layout features the American Crafts Mayberry collection, which is available in the Come On Get Crafty Shop. The flair is from {a flair for buttons} etsy shop.
To soften the layout I placed a 12x12 sheet of vellum over the background paper.The pinwheels are handmade and I shared a little tutorial on how to make them over at the Come On Get Crafty blog, She's So Crafty.
Here are a couple close-ups.
This is a little stitched vellum pocket filled with glitter. :)
For this next layout, I wanted to share how to create a background that is similar to the die cut backgrounds that are so popular. This is great if you like the look of those backgrounds but don't have a die-cutting machine.
That's me on the far left, petting the new horse, Champion, that was born on my Grandpa's farm. :)
To learn more about how I created the background, visit the She's So Crafty blog.
Most of supplies on this layout are from the Pebbles Lakeside collection. To see the complete list of supplies visit the She's So Crafty blog.
Ok, that's it for today. I'll see you back here tomorrow for another "Project Catch Up Week" post.
The photo in the first layout is adorable - love the colors you used with it!

Love the circles on the second layout. What a great idea to do something like this if you don't have a diecut machine!
