Bella Bliss!

Snuck in a layout this afternoon while the youngest was taking a much needed nap before the festivities tonight.

I used Bliss and added some Vanilla Cream cardstock for the scalloped trim and main photo mat. The base Colonial White is spritzed with some homemade shimmer spray in the spray pen - fill to the second to top line with water then add a dab of Create-A-Shade pearl paint and 5 drops of Chocolate reinker. It gives a great sparkle to the page and ties in the paper with the gray butterflies which features a light chocolate sponge effect that looks almost Smoothie. Hence the Smoothie flowers! The blue butterflies are 1st and 2nd generation stamped in Indian Corn Blue. These are from My Acrylix Trellis which I bought just for this layout after I couldn't find a suitible flower in my stash #thethingsidoforscrapbooking!

Hope you are having a great Independence Day weekend! I can't wait to break out the tripod tonight for fireworks!

Warm wishes,

Trish
