late!

I meant to post this earlier in the week, always something to get sidetracked with.  Anyway, here is my project for The Red Bee:

The challenge was to incorporate yarn in the layout. I used yarn in 3 different areas, but I really wanted the yarn to standout a little more.  So, I added more yarn here:

Here is the end result: 

I like how the yarn softened up the branches.  I used The Boyfriend line from one of my favorite manufacturers, Cosmo Cricket.  Their products are so much fun to play with.

up to the challenge

Here are some layouts I completed for a couple of February challenges.

I surprised myself on this one.  It came together pretty fast.  The challenge was to create a love-themed layout without using red or pink, could not use hearts or the word "love" or anything valentine-y.  I think the paper is MME, it had a big green dinosaur - not really a good image to use for 2 teenage girls.  but I loved the color combos, the swirls, & the plaid background.  I'm happy with the end result. 

I Glimmer Misted some of the flowers & inked the edges of others.  I curled wire through some of the buttons.

For our February project at The Red Bee, our challenge was to incorporate yarn in our layout.

Here is a sneak peek of my project this month.

I will reveal the rest of the project next week.
