Happy St. Patrick's Day!

OK, so I don't have any St. Patrick's Day projects to share, but I do have a couple of layouts I'd like to share! I've been playing with making my own flowers for my pages!! These pages use some punches I've had in my stash forever!! Shelby, over at Scrap With Shelby shared a technique for adding dimension by folding the petals and layering the flowers. I went a little further, and used 3D dots inbetween the layers to add more dimension.

This first layout was inspired by the March Sketch over at the MME Blog...

Supplies: Patterned Paper (MME), Stamps (Inque Boutique), Pearls (Recollections), Ink (StazOn), Lace (Misc. from Stash)

This layout was inspired by both Couture Cardstock's daily challenge today and one of the great March Sketches over at Heidi's Cropstar Blog. Oh it was also inspired by Patti's "Recipe Challenge" over at Cookin' Up Scrapbooking Creations! The challenge at Couture Cardstock was to use pop-dots or another dimensional adhesive to create dimension on your project. I used pop dots inbetween the layers of flowers & to adhere the flowers to the layout to add dimension.

Supplies: Patterned Paper (MME), Pearls (Queen & Company), Buttons (Misc. From Stash)

Stay tuned to my blog for my Design Team Reveal for Cookin' Up Scrapbooking Creations!! This months Sponsor is Pine Cone Press & we got to play with one of the beautiful kits!! Here's a little sneak peek (those are some more flowers I've recently learned how to make!!)

Thanks for looking & have a great day!!!
