Smile - this is happiness | The Flamingo Chronicals: Smile

Howdy blogging friends! It is halfway through the week and

I am ready for the weekend! I have been able to get some serious

scrapping done, which is why you haven't seen me here on the blog much the

last week or so. So much paper, so little time!

Today I have a layout made with the fabulous new October Afternoon

Woodland Park paper line. It is available at The Crafty Scrapper and let me tell you

it is some super cute paper!!!

Cardstock is Bazzill, flowers are Petaloo I think, lace is from the craft store, ink is Tsukineko,

I have used my distresser and my sewing machine.

The butterflies were fussy cut from the Huckleberry Hill paper, then I slathered them with Glitter Modge Podge. Some of them were layered onto Maya Road wooden butterflies.

I love pom-pom fringe. The world would be a much happier place if everyone used more pom-pom fringe! The stick pins are Maya Road and I have dressed them up with crystals and alcohol inks. All the die cut stickers are from the Woodland Park line as well.

I am linking up to the following sites:

Southern Girls Challenge - bling, bling! - Sparkle Modge Podge on everything!

Unique Crafters Challenge - Anything Goes

Make It Monday

Catered Crop - Pink!

Be sure to stop by and show some love to the fabulous sites above and play along. I get so much more scrapping done now that there are all these fabulous challenge sites on the web!!

Thanks for stopping by today.

You know, I used to be all like "everything on here is mine and you can't copy it!!" Now I realize how childish that sounds. I did not invent anything that you are seeing on this blog. Everything I do, everything I create, was inspired by something I saw, something I did, or something someone else did. Please, look around, I hope you like what you see. If you see something you love, I hope you recreate it for your pages/scrapbook/home. If you feel like giving a link back to here, great! If not, that is all good too. It is art after all, and art is meant to be shared, not hoarded away! I hope my art inspires you, as so many other peoples art has inspired me.
May the Flamingo's be with you.
Anita

I need to get busy and contribute to the happier world as I've never used pom-pom fringe before, but I've always admired it. I'll put that on my wish list! Your LO is spectacular and truly captures happiness. Great photo and love all your detailed embellishments so much. :)

Thank you so much for taking the time to link up your talent and creative ideas with us at Make It Monday!
Happy Crafting...
