Welcome to our February Blog Hop featuring a 2 page layout. This is the first Blog Hop for us where we have featured just scrapbook layouts. We hope that you will take the time to leave comments on our posts, as we love to get feedback from our viewers....whether it was something that you really liked or some new technique that was used that you would like to learn how to do....by leaving us comments, we get to hear what you like, and what you want to see. Thank you… now on to our hop! 

One of our Crafty Canadian Consultants is running a contest, so hop on through and don't forget to leave comments.....

I am the first stop on this Blog Hop, but if you have come from Michelle M's blog Twirl N Time then you are in the right spot as this is a circular hop.

Treasured Tags layout from Cherish How to Book

For this layout I used the New Claire Paper. I really love the colors. This layout is featuring pictures of my youngest at her first birthday party....she really loved her cake.

I used Blush Cardstock as the base for my layout, and used Cotton Candy, Outdoor Denim and Ruby Cardstock for my accents aswell as the first sheet of paper in the Claire paper packet.

The embellishments are mainly the shapes cut from the bold pattern of Claire and I added Liquid Glass to them to make them shine. I layered the flower by cutting out each different section of this flower.

This next photo I used the Rosette Ribbon as some added detail to soften the layout.

This next photo I've wrapped some Baker's Twine from the Paradise collection, and tied a knot to add a little dimension.

Here I've journaled using the Chalk Board Marker. The Cardstock is distressed using the sanding block.

Using the Chalk Board Marker I've added stitching and doodling to the edges just to finish off the look.
