Welcome to the Lily Bee Blog Hop! I am excited to share a layout today featuring some papers from a couple of my favorite lines: Buttercup and Victoria Park.
(Supplies USed: Cardstock from Bazzill, Patterned Papers from Lily Bee, Die Cuts from Lily Bee, Stamp from Technique Tuesday,Ink from Ancient Page, Washi Tape Bella Blvd, Wood Camera from Studio Calico, Corrugated Heart Jillibean Soup, Buttons from Crate Paper, Decorative Brad from American Crafts, Rhinestones from Doodlebug, DMC white floss, Stick Pin from Joann's, Silhouette Cutting System, craft felt JoAnn's, and fonts Veteran Typewriter-journlaing, Old Sans Black and Wisdom Script-title)
I tend to get into crafting obsessions. These days my current obsession is working with the negative space from cut titles. I really like to put texture in that space, in this layout I reached for my fabric drawer and used felt.
