Paper Issues: Lifestyles to “Die” for Hop!

Welcome to Paper Issues Lifestyles to “Die” For hop!

You should have arrived here from JoAnn’s blog. If this is your first stop, be sure to back that browser up to Paper Issues to start at the beginning! This Issue is sponsored by Lifestyle Crafts, gotta love that! 😀  We want to see your projects using Dies or anything from your everyday life.

 

We girls on the hop were super lucky to receive some dies from Lifestyles to work with for our projects. I got a wide smantering of types and styles and was a little worries I wouldn’t be able to bring them together on a project as I wanted to use as many as I could. Luckily for me I just got in my latest batch of instagram pics (mine are printed from Kanvess) with pictures from my daughter’s birthday so I had the perfectly colorful subject to work around.

I used 4 dies on this very CAS style LO, the scalloped corner, the banner oval, the circle and the scalloped border. The banner oval and the scalloped corner both had holes that I decided needed to be stitched which I did with Twinery twine.

Most of the papers here are from Dear Lizzy Lucky Charm, with some from my scrap box (Sassafras on the corner and Cosmo Cricket on the circle), along with Maggie Holmes’ Crate Paper for the banner oval. I NEED more of that light woodgrain paper. NEED. 

Then I have AC Thickers, MLS for the tiny letter stickers, more Dear Lizzy for the flair, BG for the wood banner, CC on the heart brad, KI Memories and Doodlebug for the washi and OA for the splatter. 

 

Next up on the hop is the awesome Shannon!
