Coffee Lovers Blog Hop- #4

Yet again, I am not using my stamp set bought specifically for this Blog Hop.  I must be waiting for just the right  idea to march out on my desk and lay itself down on my card front.  Meanwhile, here is another card using the “post it” coffee cups from Little B and some copper foiled Washi tape from Prima Marketing.

Kylie and Taya

I had a couple of pictures of my granddaughters Kylie and Taya that I thought were just plain lovely and deserved to have a scrapbook page to show them off.

I was also surprised to realize that I had everything I needed in my stash to produce a layout using lavender as the primary colour.  I remembered that  I had picked up some lovely Prima flowers in shades of purple when they went on sale,  because I knew this colour was a favourite of Kylie.  I had recently received the Downton Abbey Scrapbook Kit,  and the lavender papers in it had just the right feel and touch of elegance for the project.

I am happy enough with the results that I think I will be purchasing a shadow box frame, so that I can put it on my wall.

Simon Says Stamp- Wednesday Challenge- Flowers

The theme this week for Simon Says Stamp’s Wednesday Challenge is “flowers”, featuring products from Prima.  I was happy to see this as one of my constant re-organizations of my craft room revealed that I haven’t used my flower stash for a while.  I was able to pair some older Prima flowers and some older ribbon for a pleasing result.
