This
is my entry for this month's All That Flutters Challenge at Swirlydoos.
I do
believe the title says it all - "Bellissima" perfectly describes my
granddaughter. Her mom caught her on the way to the car with a bottle of water
in her hand and a pair of sunglasses perched atop her head.
The
latest kit from Swirlydoos - Creamsicle, featuring Bo Bunny's Bella Rosa
collection - is full of end-of-summer colors and fun elements - perfect for
scrapping the photos taken during the past few months.
I decided
to use the Anna Griffin die cut included in the kit to tone down the busyness
of my base paper; as pretty as it is, I needed something a bit more solid
behind my photo.
I
colored my chipboard piece (Wavy Cut Filmstrip by Creative Embellishments) with
Ranger's Vintaj Patina in Coral.
While
that was drying, I selected several dies and cut out some embellishments using
scraps from my previous layouts. The photo "frame" and the piece under the title were made with Spellbinder's
Card Creator A2 Valiant Honor die. Several Memory Box dies were used to create
the butterflies (Butterfly Swarm) and the vines (Grape Vine).
The
Prima Vintage Emporium flowers are from my Swirly kit; the other blooms are
from my stash.
Also
from the kit are the butterfly centers, cut from the Darice Bling on a Roll and
the faux gems on the edges of the die cut.
A bit
more bling can be found around the edges of my die cut - faux rhinestones made
with Tonic Studios' Nuvo Crystal Drops in Aquatic Mist.
