"family is a circle of love"

Where on earth is the time going?  I can't believe its already the 3rd of March?!  Life has felt like a whirlwind lately (all good), so I've been letting myself get behind on some stuff, including the fact that I forgot to share the layout I made for my second dt project with Gauche Alchemy

 I can't tell you how much I love being on this team!  These girls are an amazing and strong group of women, who are truly encouraging towards one another.  I feel like such a valued member, and while I'm being pushed out of my creative comfort zone in some areas (like tutorials, and a mini coming soon),  I'm more than excited about it, because of the support I have behind me!  (run-on sentences...my specialty!!!)

I usually never know where my pages will end up...here you can see part of the book page collage (from the ACME kit) I made int the background.

Here is the awesome scrapfx wordlet that I embossed with silver to keep in line with the metal madness I had going on!

The fasteners and charm are all findings in the blacked out mixed media color kit!  The flowers are Bo Bunny Chiffon ribbon that I inked black and experimented by adding embossing around the trim.  You can purchase this ribbon for very little at the  STTG store, and I love that you can custom color it to your liking!


So please stop by the gauche website and check out the awesome, (and once again, totally encouraging) post that one of my scrappy hero's and fellow alchemist, Michelle has wrote!

Thanks for stopping by, I always enjoy when you visit!
