February hearts of the west blog hop

Welcome to the Hearts of the West team blog hop!
 
 
If this is your first time joining us, welcome, you will love it. It features Close to my hearts Consultants from all over Canada showing you their projects. The hearts of the west team was founded by Nancy Klein.
This months challenge is the Brushed paper pack (X7190b), brought to you by the new Annual Inspirations, hand picked from Nancy Klein.
 
If you came from Kerry's Blog then you're in the right place, this is a go around blog hop so you can start anywhere! Just in case, the full list will be at the bottom. So, as always, grab your coffee, tea, water, relax, and hop around the team with us.
 
Well this month I had very good intentions . . . but I ordered the wrong paper pack. oops ;)
 
 

Well as luck would have it I had previously ordered the Brushed Workshop on the Go!!!

(which of course I had to adjust to fit my pictures LOL! Those who know me, know I have problems following directions. especially in kits! I love to be creative and as my customers know I am a strong believer in artistic expression!) The workshops on the go are a great deal you get paper, embellishments, a exclusive stamp set and detailed instructions completewith cutting guides and full coloured pictures.

 


 
 
 
so now I have a beautiful layout of my baby girl! I also had enough paper left over to create another double page layout.
 
so without further ado . . .
Here is what I created :
 
 
I really like how this page turned out and I have to give my hubby, Mike, credit for the idea of using copies of the picture to create this fun effect.
 
This page is simple but I love the blocking effect, it makes the picture really pop!
 
I am loving the font on my Artfully Sent Cricut Cartridge (Z3017), Nice and simple.  
 
The metal Flowers that come in the Brushed Assortment package (Z3013) plus the Clear assorted sparkles (Z1752), add some Bling to complete my layout.
 
 

I hope you like what I created.
