I Heart You All

Ok, well what you see here is the product of my madness! LOL! Every so often, I get this weird idea in my head that I need to learn/do something different. I kept thinking about the challenge at Scrap Our Stash, It was the February Leap challenge. I thought I should take a leap and try something new. So I found some very lovely flowers to make on the Bo Bunny blog and tried them out. They turned out pretty darned cute if I might say so myself! LOL! I was looking through my drawers and found all this glitter I had bought ( heaven only knows why) and thought maybe I should use that. Needless to say, I'm absolutely covered in pink and green glitter right now and so is everything else that I touch!  I brought out the stickles ( another thing I thought I should have and didn't know why). All the mists, Perfect pearls and inks etc. all came out. These are all things that I don't use all that often, yet have tons of. I just may have to start, on occassion, getting some use out of them. I also had a Martha Stewart vine punch that I had bought last year and never used, so I tried that out and quite liked it too.  I knew I wanted to scrap these wedding photos from my nieces wedding. The challenge at The Paper Variety was a photo prompt and in it the girl was holding a box with an engagement ring. Perfect fit with this challenge! Then of course, I needed a sketch because well, I love sketches. :) I found one that fit my photos at Scrappy Sketches. Last, but not least, off to find a title and again a perfect fit was found at Bird is the Word where the challenge word for  February is Heart! So there you have it! It's fun to try something new once in awhile!
