Today is the first of a new month and over at A Walk Down Memory Lane we are celebrating in style! This month's featured manufacturers at A Walk Down Memory Lane are Authentique and Paper Smooches. This means that this whole month Authentique and Paper Smooches products are 25% off over at the AWDML store! Now, this is my first time working with both manufacturers and I have to say that I love them both! Authentique papers are amazing-great thickness (for distressing), awesome patterns and amazing colors! Paper Smooches has great clear stamps and their alphabets fonts are great! (more on this manufacturer on the 15th).
Today, I have a very girly layout to share with you. Now, I'm not a pink scrapper in any way but when I saw the Uncommon Collection I knew I had to have it!
Here's what I did with it:

letter stickers: Authentique Uncommon Alpha Sticker Petite Type Circle, Doodlebug Designs Loopy Love Cardstock Stickers (Ladybug);
stickers: Jenni Bowlin Studios Embellished Butterflies(Black);
flowers: Prima Flowers (Petunia Rondo);
rhinestones: Zva Creative rhinestone bling;

This picture was taken on Feb. 14-Valentine's Day (2008), Wedding Proposal Day(2008), and Day that hubby and I got legally married (2009) (our church wedding was in May 2009). We took this picture in his room after we got back from Fairchild Tropical Botanical Gardens and I was proudly wearing my engagement ring. We set up the camera on his dresser and put a timer to get this picture. I'm so glad that we did because this is the only good picture that we took that day!
I used a lot of layers for this layout. I wanted to go for soft and romantic and the Uncommon Collection was exactly was I was looking for!
I used pink Prima flowers that I've had forever because, as I said earlier, I don't scrap with pink too often (I have no idea why I bought these flowers in the first place...). I also used Jenni Bowlin Butterflies and Zva Creative bling.
I love how the title area looks! I don't ever do long titles but I absolytely love how they look! I used Authentique's bubbles stickers for the title and Doodlebug design pink letters to finish it with a pop of color. I placed the title on a white doily from Walmart's cake decoration aile and finished it off with a Martha Stewart punched lacey border.
Of course, I layered my papers, distressed and machine stitched them. I also clustered my flowers and butterflies.
I handmade the cream colored roses (link to my tutorial) this time, using Donna Salazar's Rose Creations Dies (Spellbinders), and small rolled up flowers. I die cut a few leaves and added them to the cluster to finish it up. Lastly, I added a few butterflies, some bling and a few randomly placed rhinestones with my i-Rock-love this little tool!
Thank you for supporting my blog! I bet that 2012 will be amazing!
your roses are just gorgeous....stunning work!
