Combining Paper Packets = a Rainbow of Options

| |

Sometimes I like to combine papers, patterns, and textures when I create. This layout was created by combining three different paper packets. Can you guess what they are?

If you guessed Pear & Partridge, Flirty, and Clementine, you guessed correctly! I simply cut strips of the different papers and adhered them to a piece of black cardstock. I added some of the Flirty Dimensional Element Compliments for a little whimsy touch. The title was created with Close to my Heart’s fun Glamour Glitter Alphabet stickers. And to finish it off, I added a little hand stitching with some Embroidery Floss. By using CTMH’s great see-though ruler with guide holes along with the piercing tool, it was easy to space the holes perfectly.

By the way, if you haven’t figured it out, this layout showcases a photo of me with my mom. It is one of my favorites because it reminds me of how much I love my mom and
how blessed I am to have such a great relationship with her! Love you
Mom!!! xoxo
