My first Scrap Fx Design Team layout

I can't believe that I haven't blogged this already.  My mind hasn't been very focused lately.  I've been trying to create more and spend less time on the Internet because it has a tendency to consume me some days...

My poor mojo has been disappearing like crazy on me and I thought I finally got it back with this page (unfortunately, after this it went away again. lol)

This layout is absolutely inspired by Heidi Kelly (several of her layouts mixed into one).  Her work amazes me, and something just clicked with me while drooling through her gallery the other day...B&W pics surrounded by a vibrant mix of colors makes a huge impact...and I love how she fussy cuts pictures!  Here I've been taking close up pics so that they are "scrappable" and it was totally not necessary, because fussy cutting the pics in black and white just adds to the artsy fartsy look! So thank you miss Heidi for being so innovative and totally awesome! ( I would pee my pants if I thought that she has even stumbled onto my blog, btw)

the ouchless cardboard from gauche alchemy was actually a pleasant mistake.  I'd saturated the paper so much that that side started to rip off so I just tucked the cardboard under it and voila!

I love this frame! It come with both pieces separately, which makes it even easier to alter it...or you could even use them separately and have two frames.  Also seen here you will find the gothic key and Chicken wire in the background. The flowers are a mixture of zva and petaloo flowers that you can find at the STTG store.

How can you not love this banner?  You should go check out the Scrap Fx blog and see how Rachelle dressed her's up...it is very cute! 

....and her is the door.  I just love doors for some reason?  I'm very please with how this turned out, and will have a tutorial soon on the Scrap Fx blog.


This layout was so much fun to make and I just want to say thank you for stopping by!
Hope your having a great weekend!
