Since I am supposed to be resting…

May 22, 2010

my shoul­der which I must admit is mak­ing me cra­zier than ever… I thought I would share with you some of my favorite lay­outs fea­tured in my book “Delight In The Details”. These three are all so dif­fer­ent from each other yet super detailed and as you know I can get lost in the details.

The photo of the lit­tle girl is me. It is one of my favorite baby pho­tos.  I thought this photo was a per­fect match with this paper line by Jenni Bowlin. In this lay­out I used my craft knife a lot. Which is most likely one of the rea­sons my shoul­der is killing me… I love to use my craft knife and grip it so tightly. I think the light chalk­ing on the bird and flow­ers makes for a per­fect splash of color.

I love the whim­si­cal feel of this lay­out… I first started out with the house and then built the lay­out from there. I love how the Maya Road tree tops make for per­fect clouds.

This lay­out has more craft knife work and lots of hand stitch­ing. Alter­ing the Maya Road chip­board let­ters in a semi solid color gives the eye a nice place to rest. This lay­out has a lot going on and I love it. I really like this Pink Paislee line… it was one of their firsts.

I will share a few of my favorite cards and tags next week… wish­ing you all a won­der­ful weekend.
