{ Elle's Studio March Projects }

Elle's Studio March gallery is up on our Inspiration page. You have to check it out! Here is what I created this month!
For this layout I used a circle stamp from Whale of A Time stamp set to stamp a row of circles on a strip of cardstock. I added Granny's Doily circles, Peppermint Journaling tag, Vintage Label Cut Out and Scalloped Journaling Circle tag.
I used My Mind's Eye patterned paper and the new Sassafras Lass banner sticker. I layered strips of Cosmo Cricket paper behind the photo. The little butterflies are Hamton Art stamps that I cut out after stamping. The flowers on the bottom of the photo are from DRS Designs that I stamped on watercolor paper and colored with Watercolor pencils.
I am finally using some of my Core'dinations Color Core Whitewash Cardstock. I embossed circles on the bottom with Stampin' Up circle template and then used sandpaper to sand the edges. Since this cardstock has a color core the color is showing through.
I used Scalloped Journaling circle tags, Chic Date tags, Chic Note tags, XOXO journaling tag, 2009 calendar tag, Prompts Patterns and Journaling tag from Elle's Studio. I used Chic Date tag and Chic Note tag for the kites. I added Martha Stewart Baker's twine that I secured with white floss to the background.
Other supplies: Cosmo Cricket, Jillibean Soup, MME patterned paper, Sassafras Lass sticker banner, American Crafts chipboard letter stickers.
For this card I used XOXO patterned paper, XOXO journaling tag and XOXO cardstock. I found this adorable Martha Stewart butterfly border punch. It punches the butterflies, but the others stay attached. The, I punched some more butterflies for the card. The cute ribbon is from American Crafts that I found at Michaels for a dollar. It matches the papers perfectly!
