a few months ago, i was lucky enough to be chosen as a guest artista for the bella blvd blog. well, my month to finally share is here. they will be featuring quite a few projects and posts from me throughout the month, along with two other talented guest artistas. today, our designer spotlight's are up, and you can check them out HERE. we each have a fun little fill-in-the-blanks that we answered, and a layout of our choice.

here's a quick peek. but you have to go to the bella blvd blog to see the full layout. i absolutely love their paper designs. they recently released six new collections. they are all pretty different from each other. there's a fall collection, a school collection, a new years/party type collection, a love collection, and 2 collections that are really springy and colorful. the thing i love the most about their papers, is that they have tons of designs that are can really be used for anything. and they mix together so easily. to show that, i couldn't resist using a little bit of each collection, on this one layout. yep, i used pattern papers and stickers from each of the six collections. and i think it turned out quite nicely, if i do say so myself 😉

    Absolutely love your page! I will definitely be lifting this one. Not only for the design, but more importantly the thought provoking layout it is. Now I have to think about what I’ve learned…Through The Years. Thanks!
