PROJECT | Chevron Washi Tape Layout Tutorial
LINK | You can find the full tutorial HERE
NEW PRODUCTS | Doodlebug 8mm washi tape - Chevron Assortment, Candy Stripes Assortment. I truly love this product because it comes in the most gorgeous clear cylinders that hold 12 rolls of all the gorgeous Doodlebug colours.
Yes I went crazy! You should have seen my desk... it was completely covered in washi tape and sequins but I loved putting this layout together as it was so bright and cheerful, regardless of the mess!
THE STORY | So many people comment on how much alike my daughter and I are. Now to be honest we have never been able to see it, especially considering there is 30+ years difference in our ages. So on a recent weekend away my daughter snapped this selfie of the two of us and we both suddenly realised what everyone had been talking about. We even sound identical on the phone which has the farmer asking which one of us he is speaking to... sometimes we've been known to be a bit cheeky and pretend to be each other.

So, if there is anyone out there that doesn't think they have enough product stashed away in their crafty space then leave a comment and I'll select a winner at the end of the week.

This is beautiful, but I already told you that somewhere else. I can't remember where I commented on it. You have such an eye for design and yours are so unique and so you. You and G do look a lot alike. :) how funny that you like to mess around with your hubby when he calls. LOL Sounds like something my girls and I would do to Greg. As for the Doodle Bug products, they are so fun and so colorful. I love them.
ReplyDeleteCan you ever really have enough product stashed away?!?!? Love the colourful doilies!!
ReplyDeleteI'm sure I said this before about this layout but I'll say it again - it's INCREDIBLE!!! I just love what you did with the washi tape!!
I agree with Tracey .. I seem to never have enough. Requires a whole different take on retail therapy. Not only is the layout stunning but the names of the colours are adorable. Thank you for the opportunity to add colourful doilies to my stash.
