ScrapFIT #35 and a Cute Lil' Birdie

I completed ScrapFIT's Workout #35...and it was harder than it sounded! The instructions were to create a layout using only scraps (which I have a lot of). It was hard, though...trying to find just the right papers in the right sizes. I managed to do it, and it turned out kind of cute :) It's a picture of Paige from last December, doing her "lip check." She had a cute habit of touching her lips with her fingers, kind of like she was making sure they were still there!

I added some blue stitching...even that was a scrap piece I had in my stash.


These butterflies were cut from a piece of scrap paper, too. I coated them in Glossy Accents and then heated them with my gun, and they curled up when they dried. I love how they look like they're in flight!


Here is another one I threw together. She has on a snowman shirt, and I debated about whether or not to make this one a Christmas page. I decided against it, and went with the jungle/nature theme. I pulled out my new Live Simply cartridge and cut these adorable birds! Aren't they so cute? From there, it became a "birdie" layout...totally unrelated to the snowman shirt. I love the result! I always tend to let the colors in the pictures dictate the papers and colors I use.
