this week on the pebbles blog, we are debuting the happy go lucky collection. this is a collection that i couldn't wait to create with.

first off, the colors. they're gorgeous colors. greens, oranges, pinks, light blue, and purples. i have said in the past that i am not a fan of purple on my scrapbook projects. i think that opinion has changed a bit over the last year. the shade of purple that i have no problem using is the shade on that paper above. i love a good, dark purple.

secondly, the patterns. one thing that i have always loved about pebbles, is the great patterns on their papers. lots of neutral, tone on tone, patterns. these are papers that i can see myself using over and over, for so many layouts.

and then there are the embellishments. such a wide variety to choose from. there are lots of different types of flowers. chipboard flowers, tissue paper flowers, felt flowers, and lots of fun flower brads. along with all sorts of other goodies. i especially love the fabric brads.

i stuck to just using a few of the chipboard flowers on this layout. it took some restraint, because i really wanted to use a bunch of other embellishments. but this seemed like enough. and it just means that i have lots of other goodies for other layouts 🙂

make sure and keep your eye on the pebbles blog all week long, to check out what the other girls on the team have created with this collection. i can't wait to see everyone's take on it!

    Awwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwww!!!!! Look at teeny Alyssa! So cute! Its so funny how you mentioned the tone on tone patterned paper because I was browsing through your gallery yesterday cause I was stuck on what kind of paper to paste my photo collage on so I was looking for ways that you do it. I noticed smalled patterns and some tone on tone. I was flipping through my stash and I wasn’t liking what I have overall. Think it might be time to purge…eek!
    These papers are perfect! Love them!
