Parade of Papers

Sorry you missed the blog tour!

Throughout the month of May, buy three packs of Designer Series paper (including our Specialty Designer Series paper) or 12" x 12" textured card stock and get one FREE!

First is the Scrapbook layout I made using the Parisian Breeze Specialty Designer Series Paper.

The lovely matching Baja Breeze Corduroy Buttons and Flower from the Pretties kit make it easy for even a novice like me to make a pretty page! The letters were colored with White Craft ink mixed with Baja Breeze Classic ink…I ended up with a lighter color, but I liked that. Photography by Kathryn Varner, Edmond, Oklahoma.
