XOXO Layout with Patty

Hi everyone! It's Patty here again. This layout was created to frame a photo of my daughter, Liz, when she was about sixteen.
 

 All of the products used here were from The Crafty Scrapper.....my Happy Scrappy place! The complete product list is: Authentique, Uncommon Collection paper, Maya Road Embellishments, Prima Ink, Ranger Adirondack Paint Dabbers and Ranger Stickles.

 The flowers here are hand made using a punch from my stash. I added stickles and small bling to them and adhered some of the flowers to the snowflakes just for fun.

 I thoroughly enjoyed working with the Maya Road XOXO. First, I painted it, applied glossy accents and finally, I wrote in the center of each letter with stickles. Each step required time to dry before moving to the next step.

 Aren't the Maya Road embellies lovely? Using the Maya Road lace (below) that was in this kit, I cut every other section off, leaving a space to weave the Maya Road ribbon in and out.

               

 And now, for the grand finale......drum roll, please. I couldn't help but want to put these little flowers in the Maya Road bottle and pour Glossy Accents by Ranger into the little jar to look like water. This photo was taken immediately after I finished the layout, so the Glossy Accents was still moving around a little.

Be sure to stop by The Crafty Scrapper in Waxahachie to check out all of the beautiful projects and layouts by the design team and get inspired or take a class....or both!

See you next time...........Patty
