Supplies-cardstock: Colorbok; patterned paper: Pink Paislee (Queen Bee-Queen Bee, Worker Bee); letter sticker: Pink Paislee; rub-ons: My Mind's Eye; flowers: Prima, Petaloo; pen: Sharpie; ink: Tim Holtz (Vintage Photo); tools: Tim Holtz (Paper Distressor); other: hemp rope, buttons
This layout is based on my brand new sketch (below) and the pictures are of my hubby feeding the geese couple in a park by our house. When they first arrived here, the geese were scared of people but now they run up to you honking. I love them!
I used Pink Paislee's Queen Bee pattern paper because well, I love them! I also used a small border from Sassafras, a Prima packaging and a white Bazzill cardstock. I did some water distressing on the Pink Paislee pattern paper and inked the edges with Tim Holtz's ink.

For the title, I made my own alphas. I designed them on photoshop and printed them out.

The green letters are Pink Paislee alpha stickers. The flowers are a mixture of Primas and Petaloo. I did some fuzzy cutting for the Pink Paislee Queen Bee leaves and added them to my cluster. These are my fav leaves of all time! I used buttons tinted brown with alcohol inks and added a small hemp rope knot as a center. Instead of flowers, I used dragonflies and I absolutely love how they look!
Here is the sketch:

For my next layout, I had a lot of fun experimenting with inks and resist papers!

Supplies- cardstock: Colorbok; patterned paper: Pink Paislee-Parisian Anthology (Beautiful butterfly, Divine Damask); chipboard: Thickers flowers: Recollections; pearls: Prima E Line; trims: Websters; pen: Sharpie bling: Glimmer Mist (Olive Green), Stickles (Star Dust); ink: Tim Holtz (Vintage Photo, Peeled Paint); tools: Tim Holtz (Paper Distressor, Alcohol ink applicator); other: decorative scissors,
The picture was taken this Easter before hubby and I went to church. I loved working with Pink Paislee Anthology Collection. I used Tim Holtz's Peeled Paint ink for my background.

I distressed my edges using Tim Holtz's paper distressor for a distressed look. I made a scallop edge on the other resist paper and used the Vintage Photo ink to color it. I left the opposite side of the resist paper as is because I loved the cream color with the scripts. I only distressed the edges and inked them lightly to make them stand out more.

I handmade my own pearl bling with 3D paint and acetate. I handmade my own Mountain Lili flowers in cream/yellow and a few Recollections yellow roses and two Recollections white flowers to finish my cluster. I finished this corner off by adding some stamped leaves, a few butterflies and some loose pearls.

I used glittery green Thickers letters for my title and used the number 3 for my e's since I had run out of e's. I finished by adding a green Websters trim below my title.
Finally, I made a card using some leftovers from my fist layout.

Supplies- patterned paper: Pink Paislee (Queen Bee-Queen Bee); trims: Pink Paislee ink: Tim Holtz (Vintage Photo); bling: stickles (Star Dust); punch: Martha Stewart; other: flowers from Michaels's flower dept
I used Pink Paislee's ribbon trims, the packaging and scraps from the Queen Bee's paper that I used in the first layout. I added a few flowers from Michaels's flower department that I've had in my stash for years and a few more fuzzy cut leaves.

To finish it off, I added two of my paper pieced bumblebees and a handmade title.
