New Bleuprint!

Every Friday over at Bad Girls, one of our Elite Artistes shares an inspiring new Bleuprint. For those of you that don't know, our Bleuprints begin with a source of inspiration (a magazine ad, a painting, a color palette). From that, we build a sketch. And, finally we create fun layouts combining our source of inspiration and sketches.

This week was my turn, and this is what I came up with...





I was looking for a fun way to scrap some photos I had from Christmas, and was inspired to create a page that, itself, looked like a wrapped gift. American Crafts' "Merrymint" collection was perfect for this! To see where my source of inspiration came from, and for a sketch to give you a jumping off point... take a peek here.

Have a great weekend! I know mine will be spent getting messy with the new American Crafts "I Heart You" line. Stay tuned for some cute V-Day projects!

What a cute page! I came by to tell you that your page on the AC Studio blog with the quote by Jonathan Safran Foer, inspired me to do a layout using the same words. It's here http://wickysticket.blogspot.com/2010/02/load-day-3-this-is-tough.html if you'd like to see it.
