Once I figured it out

This week we are highliting the Giant Rhinestones. Love the extra sparkle and bling they bring to my pages.

Finnley is a baby line but it can be used for so much more. This page is all about the big slide at the fair. We had a wonderful time and I decided to go on the big slide as our last ride. It was pretty creepy walking up the steps but even creepier sitting at the top. I was able to snap a pic tho.

Sparkle and bling! Love them. I love the colors in this line too. The mint green is so pretty.

Thanks for stopping by and checking out my Glitz page! Till next time!

Strawbah bah bah bababerry

Summer is here! One day it was cool the next it was a scorcher! It came like a thief in the night, literally! We cool off in the summer by splashing in the pool, throwing water balloons and eating fresh fruit. Yep that's right. Fresh watermelon and strawberries are the best.


I took this picture of my cousin not to long ago. I couldn't wait to scrap it. To me it screams summer. Her beautiful golden hair and that bright red strawberry. Perfect summer photo.

I used GCD's Melody ross line homespun chic-applique. I cut out the sweet birds and flowers to add to my white cardstock. I also punched scalloped circles to go under my title.


I love adding texture and dimension to my pages. I achieved the dimension by pop dotting the flowers and bird. The sewing around the page and under the title adds the texture I love.


The Layered frames also from Homespun adds even more depth to the layout. They are simply beautiful and set off the picture nicely.


Homespun Chic is so feminine and bright. It works for every season.

Make sure to stay cool and try some nice cool fruit to kick off the summer.

The livings easy

Hey ya'll got some more GCD goodies to share. Hope you enjoy! :)I used the Fun house collection for this one.
I tucked a little lace tag (shabby chic crafts tag) for journaling on the side and used the beautiful sunny yellow cabochon to accent it.

My daughter Raven hanging out by the side of the pool. I used one of the shaped paper boarders from the Soul food collection to accent the bottom of the page. Laced a little bakers twine through it to finish it off. I love using doilies in my design. They give that little extra special something to your page and they are super inexpensive.

Loving the soul food collection by Melody Ross. I used it for this page of my daughter and friends feeding a horse. The whole experince was so lovely and feminin I wanted the papers to reflect that.

These papers truly do. The tag has a little glitter to it and the colors are beautiful. I also added a few fun house elements to the page. The clear boarder and the cabochon go so perfectly with Soul Food.
I used a chipboard book shape to create the background for my page. I love texture so I hand sewed the boarder.

Have a a lovely weekend!
