Crate Paper

Well, I'm finished up with school and am looking forward to everything summer has to offer! I love everything about summer. However, it seems to be eluding us around here. It had been nice and warm for the past few days and all of a sudden it's FREEZING! What happened? I'm sitting here in my coziest  winter fleece. Hmmm....

Speaking of summer, I thought I'd share a project I recently did for Crate.  May's Creative Weekly photo inspired us to scrap using a beachy, summery theme. I was more than happy to oblige!  Here's what I came up with. I used lots of goodies from the new The Pier line. I love it!

 I started off by adding watercolor to the background to emulate the water. Then, I chose 'sandy' color paper and embellishments to layer above it. I think this is one of my new favorite pages.

 I cut the title from a Silhouette file. Here's the link to it if you are interested: http://www.silhouetteonlinestore.com/?page=view-shape&id=29889

 I added some layered stickers and papers to create the photo block.

Then, I added a slide frame to highlight my little beach baby. These slides are so fun and versatile. I've done several projects, that will be posted soon, using them.

So, I'm just going to sit here and wait until it's warm enough for us to get to the beach so I can take more pictures like this.

Thanks so much for stopping by.:)
