Heart This Moment

I don't know about you, but when my kits arrive I always tend to have a favorite paper or embellishment. This month's Country Lane Kit was no exception as I think I actually gasped when I saw the Sky's The Limit Layered Ephemera paper from My Mind's Eye.

So, it's no wonder that it was the first piece I  reached for when I decided to use this photo of my oldest daughter and her friends from Friday's 8th Grade Formal Dance.

Not wanting to cut it at all I simply trimmed the edges and stitched it to my base paper.

As a fan of banners I created mine from punching several coordinating sheets of paper and adding the paper pieces from the decorative brads set.

And just when  I thought the Gold Daiquiri Thickers from last month's Melrose Kit could not be topped along came these Dear Lizzy Treasure Thickers. Love them!

I used the top portion of the Elle's Studio Serendipity Stamp to complete my title.

All of the items used on my layout are from the Country Lane Kit with the exception of the American Crafts Pool ribbon which was from an earlier kit.
