Shimelle's 2nd Challenge

Shimelle's Scrapbook Weekend is officially over, but you can still participate in any of her challenges posted on her blog, and still be eligible for a prize from one of her sponsors until April 23rd. I had this layout almost completed on Friday, but had to leave it and I wasn't able to finish it up until last night. The challenge was to use three or more paper collections on a layout. I used My Mind's Eye, American Crafts and Echo Park.

Products Used: Patterned Paper: Echo Park (LittleBoy/Rock Star), My Mind's Eye (Abbey Road/Sunshine Girl) & American Crafts (Amy Tangerine/O Happy Grey) - Magic Mesh - Washi Tape: Queen & Co. - Title Vellum Stickers: Sticko (Tiny Giants) - Journal Spots: Jillibean Soup (Journaling Sprouts) - Cloud Die Cuts: Sizzix - Circle Punch: Marvy Uchida - Distress Ink: Colorbox - Foam Adhesive: Recollections.

I was thrilled that I was able to use some old product I had on hand on this layout. My title words and the bucket vellum stickers I've had for what seems like forever. And I was able to pull out my Sizzix cloud die cuts and utilize them. But I still am terrible at embellishing my pages. I freeze and have a hard time finding items I can use. It's driving me crazy! I think I'm starting to psych myself out. 

Anyhoo, hope you all had a great weekend and I hope your week is a productive one. I have ideas and content flooding my brain. Sometimes you can have too much inspiration!

Happy Scrapping!
