Li'l Red Riding Hood

I love these photos my daughter took of grandgirl and scrappy buddy, Miss Grace, in her Halloween costume. Daughter, Cyndi, sewed the cape and Grace wore it proudly as she carried her basket trick or treating. :) For this page I've used Cottage Cutz Mrs. Gnome as Red. Her face is stamped using one of the ghost faces from the Cottage Cutz/Peachy Keen Halloween collaboration release, and her basket is -- are you ready? -- a pumpkin from the pick-up truck accessories! Isn't she adorable!

For this embellishment, I used the flowers and mushrooms die, also from the Gnome release. I thought they were perfect for the red riding hood theme. My favorite thing is cutting shapes from pattern papers. I love the whimsical look it gives them with an unexpected pattern or color.

I hope you enjoyed my layout today. Scrapbook pages are my favorite and it's been too long since my last one. :) Have a great weekend. I hope spring has made its way to your part of the country!

Gnomes, flowers and butterflies, oh my!

For this week's projects I've used versatile Cottage Cutz Made Easy flowers, ornate butterfly, and Mrs. Gnome. The new flower designs are so much fun. You can create so many flower designs with just these few pieces. And I love the "buttons" too! Such a great design.

Inside message:

I combined the new butterfly with an older one using the same glittery idea for the openwork in the wings. They go so well together and look how pretty when combined with the flowers.

Thanks for looking. Be sure to check out the store for the adorable gnomes, flowers, butterfly and more fun designs from the new spring release!
