It feels great being home and getting back to creating..
being on vacation for 2 weeks kind of kicks your butt, if you know what I mean..LOL
I got these wonderful BasicGrey Olivia line papers from Generations Crafting and since there are so many wonderful colors and prints to choose from, I really had a hard time getting started..LOL
Plus, Leah (beecherrylady) talked me into buying the new Create A Critter cartridge, I did get it while vacationing in Florida and it was pure torture having to wait the 2 weeks till I got home to use it.. :O)
I really wasnt sure if I needed this cartridge or not, but I'm so super glad I did buy for myself..
Here are some close ups of the layout:
I ended up adding some glossy accents to the wings of the bees and the hearts.. It looks super cute.
