More artwork!

I've been working on layouts for workshops lately and thought I'd share a couple.  The first is one of two layouts we did at this week's workshop.  Using Caboodle papers, Candlelight stamp set, It's Your Day stamp set, Friendship alphabet, and Tiny Tabs embellishments.  I love that these pages are great for boys or girls!

This next layout is for a group of ladies on a scrapbook retreat this weekend.  It uses one of my favorite paper packs, Grace, as well as the Endless Friendship stamps, Field Trip alphabet, and Colonial White crocheted ribbon from our Designer Ribbon Rounds.  Using foam squares under the flower on the right page and edge distressing all the Desert Sand phot mats gives it just a little more dimension and texture.

And some close-ups of the individual pages on this one

Small tip for today:  To use less ribbon, don't wrap the entire piece of paper.  Cut a piece just long enough to wrap one each side and scotch tape the ends in place.  Then take a smaller piece and tie into a knot around your longer piece.  It also ensures a nice flat, tight ribbon better than pulling it around and tying the ends together.
