glitz design blog hop: dapper dan collection

happy thursday and welcome to this month's edition of the glitz design blog hop!!  it's all about the fabulous dapper dan collection today!  i hope you have enjoyed all of the lovely projects along the blog hop today!!  you are probably stopping by from noel's amazing blog.  so glad you are here!!

i'm sharing a few of the layouts i created for CHA using this awesome collection!  i love the colors and patterns of these papers!

let's have a look, shall we??

"i'm with awesome"

i was immediately drawn to the triangles on a few of the papers, as well as a few of the triangle accent stickers.  i added a few, cut a few more out, and kept adding them until i had the majority of my page covered.  then i added a few more accent and title stickers, as well as two of the large rhinestones!!  such a fun page!

"hey good lookin'"

that's my sweet husband right there!!

this collection was perfect for this photo!

i started my background by painting a thin layer of gesso to act as a frame.  then i hot glued a small sized clipboard to the page and "clipped" on my layers.  i love the look of the clipboard on the woodgrain paper!

"just stay cool"

for this layout, i wanted to use this photo strip of my son and decided to keep everything mostly vertical on the page.  i layered several of the dapper dan papers underneath my photo, as well as a few stickers and a large rhinestone.  to maintain balance on my layout, i added a vertical strip of the chevron paper down the right side and then used the "hello" roller over the top of the paper for some interest.

and that's it from me today!!
