My Favourite Things Blog Hop

Well come to the My Favourite Things Blog Hop that the very talented Gill from Creations by Gill is hosting. So if you just stopped by I would like to invite you to join us in our hop today and if you came from Anita's and Bugs Blog then you are heading in the right direction. We were asked to make a project of one of our favorite things and I decided to do a layout of my "Bike". My husband bought it for me two years ago as a surprise and it is one of my favorite things. I used the Jillibean Egg Drop Soup Collection for my layout.
I love distressing my paper not with just ink but also with the Tim Holtz distress tool to rough up my edges and I thought it gave my layout a great look when I think of a bike going down the path on the Greenline in Memphis, that is one of our favorite places to ride.
My fun letters are a mix of Making Memories, Mrs Grossmans and Pink Paislee. I generally make my letter but decided to use these and just mix it up a bit. I also added a stamped filigree on the corners of my paper. Thank you for stopping by to see what one of my favorite things. Stop back by tomorrow you never know what may be going on at Scrapbook Flair. Hugs.

  14. Pam, I love this scrapbook page! The pink back paper is amazing! The black lettering stands out and works so well with the paper. I have a bike too, but unfortunately don't use it so am planning on selling it.

    anyway, well done!

    Sorry for the lateness of this comment. Was working all weekend and then got caught up with other stuff when I got home!
