Under the Dear Lizzy Spell

I am trying out a different style than my usual shabby chic way. And seriously I am in love with the Dear Lizzy Collections. Here's 1 LO I did "The miracle of the Bike". It's amazing that she just stepped onto the bike and could paddle and move forward No more back breaking practices for us!!! Techniques: - I misted with blue mist and cloud and then I doodle the outline of the clouds - did some cutting with the banners... And after watching Elizabeth Kartchner on American Crafts blog, I had to make these flowers. I made 7 in under an hour. Using my fabric stash. Wow... that was easy! I made a cluster and altered my girls white tee. Cute-nesss!!! I found a stash of Prima bling bling centres. Perfect for this flower And made more here! The pink polka dot is made from Dear Lizzy fabric paper. My fave! And speaking of stash, I decided to do a random RAK with my blog followers. I can't thank you enough...... (hugs) I see many new faces! thank you thank you! So, this RAK will go to one of my blog followers..... I will draw a winner on Monday. You still have time to add your name there! And I will add in some of the above handmade flowers!!! thanks for dropping by with your sweet comments!
If you have not gotten any Dear Lizzy papers or fabric pp, get them from YSS.
Your scrapbookstash has everything from Dear Lizzy.
