glitz design: blog hop

happy thursday everyone and welcome to the july edition of the glitz design blog hop!!  (even though it is already august...wow!!)  you are probably hopping over from noel's lovely blog.  so glad you stopped by!!

for the blog hop today, i thought i would share some of the layouts i created for CHA.  i feel so fortunate that i was able to play around with the new products!  i wish i could have been at the show in vegas!  i bet it was awesome!!

the wild & free collection is my absolute favorite ever so i thought i would share a few layouts and a mini i created.  i'm sure you will see lots of projects from me using this collection in the future.  the colors are just perfect and beautiful!!

first up are the two layouts.  one a little more artsy and one a little more structured...

"be you"

i played around with my mists, sewing machine and some embossing powder to create the background for the layout.  then i finished it off with some of the wild & free stickers, large rhinestones and some stamps.  so fun!!

"wild heart"

for this layout, i started with these three photos of my daughter on the carousel at our local park and then added in different papers, embellishments and tags to fill in my page.  i just love her little laugh. this page just makes me smile.  :)

and....

i love a good mini, so i couldn't resist putting one together for CHA.  here's a look at the cover and a few of the pages....

so what do you think??  are you in love with the wild & free collection too?  i just love it!!
