So much fun! 12 by 12 Layout

Hello everyone!
I am very excited to share with you my first scrapbooking layout in quite a while. Seems like forever really, but I'm just happy I got it done! To be honest, I've been overwhelmed with stuff lately, and haven't had much time to dedicate to crafting (seems like that's becoming the story of my life in the last eight months or so, but really, I just wish I could craft 24/7 that's all LOL).
Anyways, I had a blast creating this layout as an inspiration piece for the June Lindy's Stamp Gang Color Challenge, using the latex release, the Under the Boardwalk Flat Fabio Collection.
Super fun, creamy bright pastel colors with no shimmer that just make me happy!
Here's what I created:
I used three out of the five newly released products,  Orange Creamsicle, Raspberry Lemonade and Tilt a Wheel Teal,  some I Am Roses flowers (Daisy P700-15, Tiny White T2-15), Dear Lizzy's Day Dreamer Paper Collection, as well as a Day Dreamer wood veneer, some light modeling paste, a Prima stencil by Finnabair and the background paper is by Echo Park--the This and That Collection.

I hope you liked it, and can join in Lindy's June Color Challenge. I get excited seeing all the entries every month!

I've been framed!

Hello there again!
So excited to share with you a frame I altered for the I Am Roses June Challenge. Have you checked it out yet? If not, head on over there and share your creation for a chance to win some awesome mulberry flowers!!! Click HERE for all the info on how to join in.

I altered this frame I bought at Michael's a while back, to give to a family member. It's a picture of my daughter and I, and it's just the right size I wanted.
I used the following I Am Roses products to alter it, as well as a few sequin pieces: 

Super fun and simple project that would make a great party favor or small gift for a loved one. Hope you liked it!
