A few days ago, we shared some projects using the Kiss Me collection over on the Bella Blvd blog. While Kiss Me isn't a brand new collection, it was new enough to be shown and featured in the booth at CHA, which meant we needed some new projects showing it off.
I started this layout with the colorful chevron patterned paper, and pulled all of my colors from there. Navy blue is a favorite color of mine (especially to wear), even though I don't use it often on my layouts. I love the navy blue feathers, and decided to add in a sheet of the blue Sophisticates patterned paper to match, knowing I'd also be using the navy blue chipboard alphas.
I used some pink, yellow, and aqua designer tapes on the edges of my photos, so I used embellishments and stickers in those same colors.
I was trying to come up with a title for this page, and had a few colors of the chipboard alphas out. I was very limited with the green alphas, since I had only received one package for CHA work and had used quite a few of the letters. Took me a while, but I finally came up with a fun title, adding in some tiny alphas from the High Five stickers to add my subtitle. I cut the "I'll tell you a secret" sticker in half, to hold the entire subtitle.
Stop by the Bella Blvd blog to see lots more Kiss Me projects. We've also been sharing altered projects, featuring the new collections, and there are some gorgeous projects! You won't want to miss them.



I saw this layout over at Bella and just loved it instantly when I saw it.
I have a thing for chevron paper lately and I LOVE this Bella pattern- like probably a little too much..ha!
I really liked the idea of using the designer tape down the sides of the photos- so going to do that soon. Another masterpiece. Have a GREAT weekend. Bet you are alot warmer than we are right now!!!

Great use of so many colors, without it looking like a crazy mess. That navy paper really grounds everything. Love your title, and I'm sure those girls feel the same way about you.

I just came across your blog! Such inspiration over here. It drives me to get my paint and start making some art myself.
Love,
Breathe Me
