Bella Blvd | photo inspiration...

Hello Scrappy Friends!  Today I am sharing my last Bella Blvd project from the 2012-2013 term.  Our design team challenge was to use this photo as inspiration...


 
 
At first I was drawn to the colours!  No surprise there right?  *grin*  But then I took it a step further and decided I wanted to "make the bed" on my page.. please note the pillow placement and the layers of paper on my page! LOL!

 
 "So Blessed"

products used: cs - Kaisercraft; pp - Bella Blvd: Play Date, Christmas Countdown, Freesttyle sophisticates, Snapshots; alpha - Bella Blvd; other - Bella Blvd: designer tape, cardstock stickers, die cuts, buttons, crochet hearts; twine, seam binding, mist, vellum; tools - silhouette portrait.

I changed the quote slightly to suit my layout theme and cut it out on my silhouette portrait.  I even backed it with vellum to subtly change and soften the colour of the fun triangle patterned paper from the Play Date collection.



I have been admiring these cute double bows created from seam binding over at Jinny's blog for a little while now.  So I thought I might like to try them.  She puts together the cutest combinations of ribbon, buttons and twine!
