Beach Fun Layout Entry for More Than Words Challenge & Cuts2Luv Challenge

Hi Crafty Friends!  I'm here with another layout for 2 challenges!  I entered More Than Words June Challenge Journey & Maps and Cuts2luv June Challenge!  They're both a great combination for challenges!  It's been a long time since I've entered More Than Words Challenge!

I decided to go use pinks for a beachy themed layout,   I know not the "Norm" but it was so fun to create!

I really wanted to go simple but once I started creating I just couldn't stop with adding embellishments!  

I used ReneaBouquets Beautiful Board Chipboard,  ReneaBouquets Handcrafted Butterflies,  Art Anthology Lotus Stencil and Cuts2luv Badges!  Of course lots of Prima flowers and Prima Color Bloom Sprays.

The word Journey inspired me to create a beachy themed layout,  our Journey to Mexico was long but once we arrived at the beach it was like heaven on earth!  I LOVE the beach,  but who doesn't right???  I wanted to capture a picture of my kids who are so different!  

Hope you get a chance to check out these challenges and enter!

My Entry for More Than Words Challenge Beautfil & Butterfly using Art Anthology & ReneaBouquets

I finally had time to join More Than Words Beautiful & Butterfly challenge!  So many ways to create with this challenge!  I was thinking at first I was going to do something Fairytale but when I started I firgured I would create a layout of my daughter when she was a baby.  She was so tiny and so perfect!  I chose these colors because it makes me think of how beautiful each and every baby is full of color.  Sometimes so soft and quiet and other times so bright and loud!  and of course who doesn't love using butterflies in their layouts?!  Below is my layout!

I started with adding clear Gesso and then started stamping.  Once I was done stamping I grabbed my Art Anthology goodies and ReneaBouquets items and started creating my layout.

I am a crazy fool for lots of texture but I can't seem to have it any other way!  LOL

I love to add sparkle to my layouts using various beads,  glitter glass,  say it with crystals,  glitter,  microbeads and sequins.  It gets messy and trying to keep those items to not fall on the floor is nearly impossible!

I used ReneaBouquets Delicate Beauty Tiny Treasures Butterflies,  I thought they were perfect for this layout,  it ties everything in with all the stamping.

I hope you get a chance to join the challenge!  I love to check out all the talented Design Team members projects,  so inspiring!  

Thank you for stopping by!

My Entry for Prima's PP Challenge

Wow did you see Prima's Product Pick Challenge for this month?  Awesome colors!  

Here is my layout I created!  I used lots of Prima!!!  I started out by cutting out hexagon shapes in different sizes then used Prima's 12x12 Circle stencil applying Prima's White Crackle. Then I went to town creating the background and starting placing the embellishments!   All the flowers,  all the paper(except the black background paper) and embellishments are Prima! I also used Prima's Acrylic Paint,  Opal Magic and Metallique for the background color. 

I used Prima's new Color Bloom 2 sprays,  Sugar Plum and Black Tulip.  

 I love Prima's Art Stones,  you can leave them white or you can spray them!  Great texture!

 The only items that weren't Prima are beads and mica flakes.

I hope you have time to join the challenge,  so much fun and so many talented ladies over there!

Thanks for stopping by and Happy Creating!
