Embossing! That's the challenge over at Practical Scrappers this week. It was fun to use my bug with something other than my nesties and I remembered a layout I saw in a scrap magazine forever ago so pulling the inspiration from memory I created this page featuring Caitlyn's Ariel doll. When Cait saw me making this page she kept asking over and over if we could go to the store and get her a new Ariel since this one has been gone for a couple years. Ms. Purple, Scissors, in the Bedroom ;) I started pulling scraps from my blue pile to compose the page and then added the stripe in there for some fun color. Then I embossed the two blue cardstock pieces in the swirl and bubbles folders for a water theme. A fun easy layout! The panels are all 3.5" x 5.5" in case you're wondering and the strip across is about 11"x1". I simply rounded the corners for a smoother feeling to the layout and added the premade embellie and some scrap strips to journal and finish it off. Enjoy and have a terrific Tuesday!
