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

2 Studio J Layouts in 30 Minutes

Here are my 2 layouts in 30 minutes! These pages are super simple and also illustrate what you can expect from an easy-peasy session with no technical skillz necessary! I created these as some of my first layouts and I kept the embellishments and kits to what was suggested by the software. To make it even easier, on the first layout I even deleted the journalling block, because the title seemed enough at the time!

On this second layout the title is where the journalling was suggested. I deleted the block and added a Quick-Title alphabet to it and used one of the accent squares to add the date and event. If you would like to make 2 layouts in 30 minutes, give me a call and we'll walk through them in person or over the phone. Contact me at 801.910.8698 or slvrlinin@live.com and don't forget you can still get a free download of your layout until tomorrow at 11:59 pm!!

Warm wishes,
