did you get a chance to check out the newly released bella buzz newsletter? for our "challenge on the blvd" section, i invited one of the local artistas, katherine mcelvain, to take on a challenge with me.

"Create a layout, using at least 1 pattern paper from each of the 4 new collections, at least 3 different colors of letter stickers from the 4 new collections, and at least one other sticker or embellishment from each of the 4 new collections."

i love mixing pattern papers together. whether it's from different manufacturers, or from different collections from the same manufacturer. you might not think to mix papers from a sports collection, a halloween collection, a fall collection, and a christmas collection. but it can definately work. i think it worked just perfectly on these photos of the girls, from an apple picking outing years ago.

i love the font on the alphabet stickers, that come on the alphas+bits sticker sheets. i used the green and the brown ones for my title, and used the white numbers for the year these photos were taken in. that white circular background piece was cut with my silhouette.
