This week on the <a href="http://www.pinkpaislee.com/?p=50244">Pink Paislee blog</a> we are sharing mixed media projects! To start you off, I'm sharing how my mixed media layout came to life.<br />
<br />
<a href="http://www.pinkpaislee.com/wp-content/uploads/2016/04/Gina-Lideros-PP-mixed-media6.png"><img alt="Mixed Media #ppfancyfree | @gina_lideros for @pinkpaislee" class="aligncenter size-full wp-image-50333" src="http://www.pinkpaislee.com/wp-content/uploads/2016/04/Gina-Lideros-PP-mixed-media6.png" height="584" width="550" /></a><br />
<br />
First, I started by cutting out this bird background with my Silhouette Cameo (cut file by Paige Evans for Studio Calico). Next, I used a combination of my favorite <a href="https://www.primamarketinginc.com/shop/store/products/products/watercolor/watercolor-confections-tropicals">watercolor confections tropical paints </a> and <a href="https://www.primamarketinginc.com/shop/store/products/products/watercolor/watercolor-confections-the-classics">watercolor confections the classics paints</a> from Prima and painted some of the background birds. I purposefully left several of them white to allow for white balance.<br />
<br />
<a href="http://www.pinkpaislee.com/wp-content/uploads/2016/04/Gina-Lideros-PP-mixed-media1.png"><img alt="ixed Media #ppfancyfree | @gina_lideros for @pinkpaislee" class="aligncenter size-full wp-image-50334" src="http://www.pinkpaislee.com/wp-content/uploads/2016/04/Gina-Lideros-PP-mixed-media1.png" height="584" width="550" /></a><br />
<br />
Next, I used my Silhouette Cameo to cut some birds out of different patterned papers from the Fancy Free collection. I adhered them to my cut file background and set aside. Next, I painted a watercolor background on white cardstock. Once my background was dry, I adhered the bird cut file background.<br />
<br />
<a href="http://www.pinkpaislee.com/wp-content/uploads/2016/04/Gina-Lideros-PP-mixed-media3.png"><img alt="Mixed Media #ppfancyfree | @gina_lideros for @pinkpaislee" class="aligncenter size-full wp-image-50335" src="http://www.pinkpaislee.com/wp-content/uploads/2016/04/Gina-Lideros-PP-mixed-media3.png" height="584" width="550" /></a><br />
<br />
To embellish my layout, I started by adding droplets of white paint against my background then I added my photo and embellishments from the Fancy Free collection.<br />
<br />
<a href="http://www.pinkpaislee.com/wp-content/uploads/2016/04/Gina-Lideros-PP-mixed-media4.png"><img alt="Mixed Media #ppfancyfree | @gina_lideros for @pinkpaislee" class="aligncenter size-full wp-image-50336" src="http://www.pinkpaislee.com/wp-content/uploads/2016/04/Gina-Lideros-PP-mixed-media4.png" height="584" width="550" /></a><br />
<br />

I'm trying something a little different for this month's Be Real post at </span><a href="http://www.scrapbookcircle.com/"><span style="color: #ea9999;">Scrapbook Circle</span></a><span style="color: #666666;">. Each month a couple of creative team members are assigned to use Instagram photos on a layout or a pocket scrapbooking page. I decided to change it up this month by creating a Be Real instagram photo album instead.</span></span><br />
<br />
<br />
<br />
<a href="http://www.scrapbookcircle.com/wp-content/uploads/2016/05/GinaLideros_SBC_May_PP_Album.png"><img alt="@gina_lideros @scrapbookcircle Use Instagram photos to create your own unique handmade album #pinkpaislee #ppfancyfree #cratepaper #americancrafts" class="alignnone size-medium wp-image-20829" src="http://www.scrapbookcircle.com/wp-content/uploads/2016/05/GinaLideros_SBC_May_PP_Album-550x574.png" height="574" width="550" /></a><br />
<br />
<span style="color: #666666; font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">I loved the papers and embellishments that were included in the </span><a href="http://shop.scrapbookcircle.com/collections/kits/products/may-kit-subscription-here-now" style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"><span style="color: #ea9999;">May Here and Now kit</span></a><span style="color: #666666; font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"> and coordinating add-ons. I started off my insta album by cutting up the corrugated white cardstock included in the main kit. It is thick and versatile, so I decided that it would make a great surface for my pages. First, I used a paper trimmer and trimmed white corrugate pieces into 7 5"x 5" square pieces. I purchased a </span><a href="http://shop.scrapbookcircle.com/collections/add-ons/products/more-may-patterned-paper-here-now" style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"><span style="color: #ea9999;">patterned paper add-on</span></a><span style="color: #666666; font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"> this month, in order to create this album you would need to have extra corrugated paper on hand or you could cut your pages to 4"x 4" each and one sheet should do the trick.</span><br />
<br />
<a href="http://www.scrapbookcircle.com/wp-content/uploads/2016/05/GinaLideros_SBC_May_PP_Album12.png"><img alt="@gina_lideros @scrapbookcircle Use Instagram photos to create your own unique handmade album #pinkpaislee #ppfancyfree #cratepaper #americancrafts" class="alignnone size-medium wp-image-20830" src="http://www.scrapbookcircle.com/wp-content/uploads/2016/05/GinaLideros_SBC_May_PP_Album12-550x574.png" height="574" width="550" /></a><br />
<br />
<br />
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"><span style="color: #666666;">After cutting up my corrugated background pages, I then cut up pieces of patterned papers from the </span><a href="http://shop.scrapbookcircle.com/collections/kits/products/may-kit-subscription-here-now"><span style="color: #ea9999;">main kit</span></a><span style="color: #666666;"> and </span><a href="http://shop.scrapbookcircle.com/collections/add-ons/products/may-embellishment-add-on-you-me"><span style="color: #ea9999;">May add-on kits</span></a><span style="color: #666666;"> measuring 5" x 5" each. I then placed each cut patterned paper on each corrugated piece. Once I got all of my papers placed, I used my crop a dile to punch through each page, and then adjoined them all using a jump ring.</span></span><br />

<span style="color: #666666; font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<br />
<span style="color: #666666; font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">Next, I printed off a couple of Instagram photos and a couple of small wallet sized photos.</span><br />

<span style="color: #666666; font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="color: #666666; font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">Once the photos were in place I used a lot of embellishments, Thickers, thread, spray ink, lace netting and a couple of other items to finish each page.</span><br />

<br />
<span style="color: #666666; font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">My last page of the album is my "favorites" page. I used a tag (included in the main kit) to journal a few things about our special day.</span><br />

<span style="background-color: white;">I used two different pocket pages to create my spread. The page on the left is a 10×12 spread and the page on the right is a 12×12 spread. I like to change things up sometimes depending on the size of my photos. I added lots of items from the the <a href="http://www.shopellesstudio.com/Little-Moments/" style="box-sizing: border-box; color: #f49386; text-decoration: none;">Little Moments collection</a> and the <a href="http://www.shopellesstudio.com/Elle-s-Studio-April-2016-Kit.html" style="box-sizing: border-box; color: #f49386; text-decoration: none;">Elle’s Studio April 2016 Exclusive kit</a> and <a href="http://www.shopellesstudio.com/ExclusiveNew/" style="box-sizing: border-box; color: #f49386; text-decoration: none;">extras</a>.</span></div>

<span style="background-color: white;"><br style="box-sizing: border-box;" />During our trip we visited the Santa Monica beach boardwalk and the event at the Los Angeles Coliseum. I took lots of pictures during our vacation and couldn’t wait to share them in my album. I added some simple journaling on the right hand side of my spread using the <a href="http://www.shopellesstudio.com/Elle-s-Studio-April-2016-Kit.html" style="box-sizing: border-box; color: #f49386; text-decoration: none;">“notes from the weekend” card</a>.

<br />
I love the mix of manufacturers and products in this kit!<br />
<br />
<a href="http://www.scrapbookcircle.com/wp-content/uploads/2016/04/Gina-Lideros-April-One-Fine-Day-kit.png"><img alt="@gina_lideros @scrapbookcircle April Planner kit" class="alignnone size-medium wp-image-20670" src="http://www.scrapbookcircle.com/wp-content/uploads/2016/04/Gina-Lideros-April-One-Fine-Day-kit-550x424.png" height="424" width="550" /></a><br />
<br />
<br />
For this spread I am using my Heidi Swapp planner. I like to use this planner for work and personal use. I used the April <a href="http://shop.scrapbookcircle.com/collections/add-ons/products/april-planner-kit-plan-on-it">planner kit</a> along with pieces from the <a href="http://shop.scrapbookcircle.com/collections/kits/products/april-kit-subscription-one-fine-day">main kit</a> and the <a href="http://shop.scrapbookcircle.com/collections/add-ons/products/april-embellishment-add-on-stay-cool">Stay Cool</a> and <a href="http://shop.scrapbookcircle.com/collections/add-ons/products/april-embellishment-add-on-now-or-never">Now or Never</a> add-on kits to embellish my pages.<br />
<br />
<a href="http://www.scrapbookcircle.com/wp-content/uploads/2016/04/GinaLideros_SBC_AprilPlanner1.png"><img alt="@gina_lideros @scrapbookcircle April Planner kit" class="alignnone size-medium wp-image-20724" src="http://www.scrapbookcircle.com/wp-content/uploads/2016/04/GinaLideros_SBC_AprilPlanner1-550x445.png" height="445" width="550" /></a><br />
<br />
<br />
<br />
I created an insert pocket by taking paper from the main kit, folding it in half, cutting it down to size and then using a hole punch to punch four holes on the left hand side. The top of the pocket is open and I used it to place a tag inside.<br />
<br />
<a href="http://www.scrapbookcircle.com/wp-content/uploads/2016/04/GinaLideros_SBC_AprilPlanner2.png"><img alt="@gina_lideros @scrapbookcircle April Planner kit" class="alignnone size-medium wp-image-20725" src="http://www.scrapbookcircle.com/wp-content/uploads/2016/04/GinaLideros_SBC_AprilPlanner2-550x416.png" height="416" width="550" /></a><br />
<br />
<br />
<br />
On the backside of my pocket, I embellished it by adding a Crate paper fringe heart and washi tape embellishments and brad sticker.<br />
<br />
<a href="http://www.scrapbookcircle.com/wp-content/uploads/2016/04/GinaLideros_SBC_AprilPlanner3.png"><img alt="@gina_lideros @scrapbookcircle April Planner kit" class="alignnone size-medium wp-image-20726" src="http://www.scrapbookcircle.com/wp-content/uploads/2016/04/GinaLideros_SBC_AprilPlanner3-550x416.png" height="416" width="550" /></a><br />
<br />
<br />
<br />
On the right hand side of my spread, I added washi tape pieces, stickers, journaling and suede tassels. Adding cute tassels and bows and paperclips to my planner is always part of my pages. I love having lots of cute pieces peeking out.<br />
<br />

<span style="color: #666666; font-family: "georgia" , "times new roman" , serif;">Hello and welcome today! I have a couple of cards to share with you today using Thickers and bits and pieces from the <a href="http://www.pinkpaisleestore.com/default.aspx?PageID=830&CategoryID=952">Fancy Free</a> collection.</span><br />
<br />
<a href="http://www.pinkpaislee.com/wp-content/uploads/2016/04/GinaLideros_Thickers1.png"><img alt="Cards with Thickers #ppfancyfree | @gina_lideros for @pinkpaislee" class="aligncenter size-full wp-image-50135" src="http://www.pinkpaislee.com/wp-content/uploads/2016/04/GinaLideros_Thickers1.png" height="584" width="550" /></a><br />
<br />
<span style="color: #666666; font-family: "georgia" , "times new roman" , serif;">The thickers in the Fancy Free collection are lovely. I decided to use the fancy glitter foam thickers to use as sentiments on my cards.</span><br />
<br />
<a href="http://www.pinkpaislee.com/wp-content/uploads/2016/04/GinaLideros_Thickers2.png"><img alt="Cards with Thickers #ppfancyfree | @gina_lideros for @pinkpaislee" class="aligncenter size-full wp-image-50137" src="http://www.pinkpaislee.com/wp-content/uploads/2016/04/GinaLideros_Thickers2.png" height="584" width="550" /></a><br />
<br />
<br />
<br />
<span style="color: #666666; font-family: "georgia" , "times new roman" , serif;">To create my first card I hand cut geometric shapes from patterned paper #06. This is the paper filled with lots of squares. Perfect for patterned piecing. I arranged the geometric shapes onto my card face and then used my sewing machine to stitch them down.</span><br />
<br />
<br />
<br />
<br />
<br />
<br />
<br />
<a href="http://www.pinkpaislee.com/wp-content/uploads/2016/04/GinaLideros_Thickers5.png"><img alt="Cards with Thickers #ppfancyfree | @gina_lideros for @pinkpaislee" class="aligncenter size-full wp-image-50139" src="http://www.pinkpaislee.com/wp-content/uploads/2016/04/GinaLideros_Thickers5.png" height="584" width="550" /></a><br />
<br />
<span style="color: #666666; font-family: "georgia" , "times new roman" , serif;">For my second card, I used a cut file called Film Club Background cut file by Paige Evans sold at Studio Calico. The heart shape originally had more pieces, but I cut it down to size us use on my card front.</span><br />
<br />
<a href="http://www.pinkpaislee.com/wp-content/uploads/2016/04/GinaLideros_Thickers3.png"><img alt="Cards with Thickers #ppfancyfree | @gina_lideros for @pinkpaislee" class="aligncenter size-full wp-image-50136" src="http://www.pinkpaislee.com/wp-content/uploads/2016/04/GinaLideros_Thickers3.png" height="584" width="550" /></a><br />
<br />
<br />
<br />
<span style="color: #666666; font-family: "georgia" , "times new roman" , serif;">I used the same patterned paper that I used on my first card (#06) to fill in the heart shape. I dipped a paint brush in white paint and splattered it across my card face. I added the cut file, thickers sentiment , some loose string and a few other embellishments from the collection.</span><br />
<br />

<span style="color: #666666; font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;">Hi everyone! Do you love string art? I want to share with you today how I used the string art heart template from <a href="http://www.pinkpaisleestore.com/default.aspx?PageID=829&CategoryID=952&ProductID=17059&PPG=2&RootCatCode=06000">Pink Paislee </a>to create this DIY art piece for my scrap room.</span><br />
<br />
<br />
<a href="http://www.pinkpaislee.com/wp-content/uploads/2016/04/GinaLideros_StringArt_1c.png"><img alt="tring Art #ppfancyfree | @gina_lideros for @pinkpaislee" class="aligncenter size-full wp-image-50155" src="http://www.pinkpaislee.com/wp-content/uploads/2016/04/GinaLideros_StringArt_1c.png" height="584" width="550" /></a><br />
<br />
<br />
<br />
<br />
<span style="color: #666666; font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="color: #666666; font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;">Did you know that you can use the string art templates on more surfaces than just paper? I have been a long time lover of all things string art. I've created lots of scrapbook layouts and cards over the years using string art, and decided that it would be fun to make my own hanging decor.</span><br />
<br />
<a href="http://www.pinkpaislee.com/wp-content/uploads/2016/04/GinaLideros_StringArt6.png"><img alt="String Art #ppfancyfree | @gina_lideros for @pinkpaislee" class="aligncenter size-full wp-image-50124" src="http://www.pinkpaislee.com/wp-content/uploads/2016/04/GinaLideros_StringArt6.png" height="584" width="550" /></a><br />
<span style="color: #666666; font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="color: #666666; font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;">First, I purchased the wooden sign from my local craft store, and then I used tape to adhere my template to it. This step really comes in handy so that your template does not slip or move when you are making the holes.</span><br />
<span style="color: #666666; font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="color: #666666; font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;">Next, I used a pencil to make a small mark where each nail should go. After I made my marks, I removed the template so that I could position my nails.</span><br />
<span style="color: #666666; font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="color: #666666; font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;">I used small panel nails for this project. One at a time I positioned each nail where my marks were, and used a small hammer to pound them in.</span><br />
<br />
<a href="http://www.pinkpaislee.com/wp-content/uploads/2016/04/GinaLideros_StringArt5.png"><img alt="String Art #ppfancyfree | @gina_lideros for @pinkpaislee" class="aligncenter size-full wp-image-50125" src="http://www.pinkpaislee.com/wp-content/uploads/2016/04/GinaLideros_StringArt5.png" height="584" width="550" /></a><br />
<br />
<span style="color: #666666; font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;">Once all of your nails are in place, just use the string (included with the template) and follow the guidelines (on the template) to create your own one of a kind piece.</span><br />
<br />
<a href="http://www.pinkpaislee.com/wp-content/uploads/2016/04/GinaLideros_StringArt2.png"><img alt="String Art #ppfancyfree | @gina_lideros for @pinkpaislee" class="aligncenter size-full wp-image-50121" src="http://www.pinkpaislee.com/wp-content/uploads/2016/04/GinaLideros_StringArt2.png" height="584" width="550" /></a><br />
<br />
<br />
<br />
<span style="color: #666666; font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;">I randomly added beads to my string before tying each line down. Once my piece was strung, I added the Thicker phrase word sticker "wander" and an arrow. I finished by adding a few chipboard stickers to the design.</span><br />
<br />

<span style="color: #666666; font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;">Hi everyone I'm excited to share a special layout with you today using the Paige kits from the Pink Paislee <a href="http://www.pinkpaisleestore.com/default.aspx?PageID=830&CategoryID=952">Fancy Free</a> collection. The Paige kits in the Fancy Free collection are a great way to create a fun layout in little time.</span><br />
<br />
<a href="http://www.pinkpaislee.com/wp-content/uploads/2016/04/GinaLideros_PaigeKit_1.png"><img alt="Paige Kits #ppfancyfree | @gina_lideros for @pinkpaislee" class="aligncenter size-full wp-image-50130" src="http://www.pinkpaislee.com/wp-content/uploads/2016/04/GinaLideros_PaigeKit_1.png" height="584" width="550" /></a><br />
<br />
<span style="color: #666666; font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;">I loved the die cut paper in the Geo Paige kit. I decided that I wanted to brighten up my page and add to it by placing watercolors behind the die cut paper. To do this, I painted watercolors onto watercolor paper and set aside to dry.</span><br />
<br />
<a href="http://www.pinkpaislee.com/wp-content/uploads/2016/04/GinaLideros_PaigeKit.png"><img alt="Paige Kits #ppfancyfree | @gina_lideros for @pinkpaislee" class="aligncenter size-full wp-image-50127" src="http://www.pinkpaislee.com/wp-content/uploads/2016/04/GinaLideros_PaigeKit.png" height="584" width="550" /></a><br />
<br />
<span style="color: #666666; font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;">Once dry, I cut the watercolors into small pieces and placed behind my die cut paper. I specifically chose colors that would coordinate with the Fancy Free collection.</span><br />
<br />
<a href="http://www.pinkpaislee.com/wp-content/uploads/2016/04/GinaLideros_PaigeKit2.png"><img alt="Paige Kits #ppfancyfree | @gina_lideros for @pinkpaislee" class="aligncenter size-full wp-image-50131" src="http://www.pinkpaislee.com/wp-content/uploads/2016/04/GinaLideros_PaigeKit2.png" height="584" width="550" /></a><br />
<br />
<br />
<br />
<span style="color: #666666; font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;">Once, the watercolor pieces were in place. I swapped out the background paper that came with the kit, and used a brightly colored paper (#12) from the collection instead. I love that this paper, adds to the watercolor effect.</span><br />
<br />
<a href="http://www.pinkpaislee.com/wp-content/uploads/2016/04/GinaLideros_PaigeKit3.png"><img alt="Paige Kits #ppfancyfree | @gina_lideros for @pinkpaislee" class="aligncenter size-full wp-image-50132" src="http://www.pinkpaislee.com/wp-content/uploads/2016/04/GinaLideros_PaigeKit3.png" height="584" width="550" /></a><br />
<br />
<span style="color: #666666; font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;">Next, I added my photo, some embellishments from the Geo Paige kit, and I combined them with other embellishments from the collection.</span><br />
<br />
<a href="http://www.pinkpaislee.com/wp-content/uploads/2016/04/GinaLideros_PaigeKit4.png"><img alt="Paige Kits #ppfancyfree | @gina_lideros for @pinkpaislee" class="aligncenter size-full wp-image-50133" src="http://www.pinkpaislee.com/wp-content/uploads/2016/04/GinaLideros_PaigeKit4.png" height="584" width="550" /></a><br />
<br />
<span style="color: #666666; font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;">I hope that you have enjoyed my take on the Paige kit today and that I have inspired you to create with your own.</span><br />

<div>
<span style="background-color: white;"><span style="color: #666666; font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;">Use watercolor paints to paint the outside images of your binder, using pink, aqua, yellow and green with a fine tipped paint brush. Set aside to dry. Next, use a 2" paper clip to hang a Dear Lizzy Happy Plce tag and tassels from a magnetic paper pad. Place inside art binder. Use watercolors to hand paint outside of tribal notebook, set aside to dry. Use watercolor paints to paint a Dear Lizy Happy Place "Be Daring" watercolor die-cut. Set aside to dry and then clip onto the top of tribal notebook with a 2" paper clip. Next, use watercolor paints to paint the front of a triangle coloring folder, set aside to dry. Once dry, place 3 ringed folder into binder. Clip in pieces of art work. Use paper clips, watercolor word die-cuts, tassels and washi tape to decorate art work and folders throughout binder.</span></span></div>

<span style="color: #666666; font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;">This was such a fun project to work on! I wanted a spring project to help brighten up my home. The Maggie Holmes Bloom collection is perfect for this. I added tags, ephemera and bits and pieces from the Bloom collection. I added some simple machine stitching with white thread and left several of the ends long to a homemade effect.</span><br />

<span style="background-color: white; color: #777777; font-family: 'Open Sans'; font-size: 13px; line-height: 22px;">Hi everyone! I’m so happy to be here and share this new song journal entry in my new praise book for <a href="https://www.illustratedfaith.com/song-journal-entry/">Illustrated Faith</a>. This song (Set A Fire Down In My Soul) by Jesus Culture has really been resonating with me lately. I decided to use it as an inspiration for my page. I have been asking God to make me stronger and to gain a closer relationship with Him through trials and tribulations that I have been going though.</span><br />

<span style="background-color: white; color: #777777; font-family: 'Open Sans'; font-size: 13px; line-height: 22px; text-align: start;">The journaling is from the song and it reads ” Set a fire down in my soul that I can’t contain, that I can’t control. I want more of you God”. I could have gone on and on, if only I had more room. To start off my page I used a mix of paints, stamps and stickers across my page. The flowers and chipboard art are from the She Blooms collection.</span></div>

Fold in half to make card. Use adhesive to adhere cardstock watercolor phrase "you are lovely", set aside. Use jute twine to hang suede tassels from mason jars. Place a small tealight candle inside two of the mason jars. Place gold straws in the third jar. Use a die cut machine to create layered paper flowers. Place on your table centerpiece along with card, mason jars and candles, decorate as desired. You now have a beautiful spring centerpiece that works great for indoor or outdoor parties.</span></span></span></span><br />

</span></span><span style="color: #666666; font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;">I hope that you are enjoying the projects that the <a href="http://www.pinkpaislee.com/?page_id=596">Pink Paislee</a> team has shared so far in Mix'n'Match week! I'm sharing a layout using pieces from the C'est La Vie and Fancy Free collections.</span><br />

<br />
<span style="color: #666666; font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;">Pattern piecing is one of my favorite techniques. I love mixing patterns and colors together. When I saw this beautiful pink paper with a hexagon print from the C'est La Vie collection, I knew right away just how I wanted to use it.</span><br />
<br />
<a href="http://www.pinkpaislee.com/wp-content/uploads/2016/03/March1_GinaLideros_MixAndMatch1PPc.jpg"><img alt="Mix And Match #ppfancyfree #ppcestlavie | @gina_lideros for @pinkpaislee" class="aligncenter size-full wp-image-49756" src="http://www.pinkpaislee.com/wp-content/uploads/2016/03/March1_GinaLideros_MixAndMatch1PPc.jpg" height="584" width="550" /></a><br />
<span style="color: #666666; font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="color: #666666; font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;">With a pencil and a piece of tracing paper, I measured the the size of the hexagons on the background paper. Then I hand cut several pieces of patterned paper from the C'est La Vie and Fancy Free collections into small hexagons. I used the background paper as a template for my cut pieces.</span><br />
<br />

<span style="color: #666666; font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="color: #666666; font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif;">I added several puffy stickers and a paper clip from the C'est La Vie collection, as well as puffy stickers, ephemera, and buttons from the Fancy Free collection. I love how well these two collections coordinate together. Do you like to mix and match more than one collection together while working on a project? If so, we would love for you to share it with us on the Pink Paislee </span><a href="https://www.facebook.com/PinkPaislee/?fref=ts" style="font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif;">Facebook Page</a><span style="color: #666666; font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif;">!</span><br />

<span style="color: #666666; font-family: "georgia" , "times new roman" , serif;">Hi friends, welcome! We are celebrating Spring week over on the Pink Paislee <a href="http://www.pinkpaislee.com/?page_id=596">blog</a>! So many of the colors, papers, and embellishments in the Fancy Free collection remind me of spring.</span><br />
<br />
<a href="http://www.pinkpaislee.com/wp-content/uploads/2016/03/March1_GinaLideros_SpringPP1c1.png"><img alt="Spring #ppfancyfree | @gina_lideros for @pinkpaislee" class="aligncenter size-full wp-image-49746" src="http://www.pinkpaislee.com/wp-content/uploads/2016/03/March1_GinaLideros_SpringPP1c1.png" height="584" width="550" /></a><br />
<br />
<span style="color: #666666; font-family: "georgia" , "times new roman" , serif;">When I first saw this floral paper in the collection, I fell in love with the flowers immediately. I couldn't wait to cut them apart.</span><br />
<br />
<a href="http://www.pinkpaislee.com/wp-content/uploads/2016/03/1920c.jpg"><img alt="1920c" class="aligncenter size-full wp-image-49751" src="http://www.pinkpaislee.com/wp-content/uploads/2016/03/1920c.jpg" height="272" width="550" /></a><br />
<br />
<span style="color: #666666; font-family: "georgia" , "times new roman" , serif;">I fussy cut them and layered them against a light blue background paper. Next, I dipped a paint brush in white paint and splashed paint across the page. After the paint was dry, I printed a small photo and added it to my page. I chose the chipboard piece "Colorful" and ephemera piece "wonderful day" to create my title. I love how happy the title looks and helps to bring out other colors on the page.</span><br />
<br />
<a href="http://www.pinkpaislee.com/wp-content/uploads/2016/03/March1_GinaLideros_SpringPP2c1.png"><img alt="March1_GinaLideros_SpringPP2c1" class="aligncenter size-full wp-image-49747" src="http://www.pinkpaislee.com/wp-content/uploads/2016/03/March1_GinaLideros_SpringPP2c1.png" height="584" width="550" /></a><br />
<br />
<span style="color: #666666; font-family: "georgia" , "times new roman" , serif;">Because there is so much going on in the center of my layout I decided to leave the left and right side of the page mostly blank (white space). I finished the page by adding some chipboard elements, buttons, and layered stickers.</span><br />
<br />
<a href="http://www.pinkpaislee.com/wp-content/uploads/2016/03/March1_GinaLideros_SpringPP3c.png"><img alt="Spring #ppfancyfree | @gina_lideros for @pinkpaislee" class="aligncenter size-full wp-image-49748" src="http://www.pinkpaislee.com/wp-content/uploads/2016/03/March1_GinaLideros_SpringPP3c.png" height="584" width="550" /></a><br />
<br />
<span style="color: #666666; font-family: "georgia" , "times new roman" , serif;">What ideas do you have for incorporating spring photos onto your layouts?</span><br />

<span style="color: #666666; font-family: "georgia" , "times new roman" , serif;">Hi everyone, I hope that you have been enjoying Patterned Papers week on the Pink Paislee <a href="http://www.pinkpaislee.com/?page_id=596">blog</a>! I designed this feathers mobile using lots of fun papers from the Fancy Free collection! This is a great way to use up small scraps of paper. Would you like to learn how to create your own? Follow the steps below.</span><br />
<br />
<a href="http://www.pinkpaislee.com/wp-content/uploads/2016/02/March1_GinaLideros_PatternTut7c.png"><img alt="Mobile Feathers #ppfancyfree | @gina_lideros for @pinkpaislee" class="aligncenter size-full wp-image-49723" src="http://www.pinkpaislee.com/wp-content/uploads/2016/02/March1_GinaLideros_PatternTut7c.png" height="584" width="550" /></a><br />
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="color: #666666; font-family: "georgia" , "times new roman" , serif;">Supplies:</span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="color: #666666; font-family: "georgia" , "times new roman" , serif;">embroidery hoops<br />
paint<br />
paint brush<br />
string<br />
various patterned papers<br />
die cut machine (or punch)</span></div>
<span style="color: #666666; font-family: "georgia" , "times new roman" , serif;">1. Paint embroidery hoops, set aside to dry.</span><br />
<br />
<a href="http://www.pinkpaislee.com/wp-content/uploads/2016/02/March1_GinaLideros_PatternTut1c.png"><img alt="Mobile Feathers #ppfancyfree | @gina_lideros for @pinkpaislee" class="aligncenter size-full wp-image-49726" src="http://www.pinkpaislee.com/wp-content/uploads/2016/02/March1_GinaLideros_PatternTut1c.png" height="584" width="550" /></a><br />
<br />
<span style="color: #666666; font-family: "georgia" , "times new roman" , serif;">2. Gather papers from the collection. Use a die cut machine to cut out feathers.</span><br />
<br />
<a href="http://www.pinkpaislee.com/wp-content/uploads/2016/02/March1_GinaLideros_PatternTut2c.png"><img alt="March1_GinaLideros_PatternTut2c" class="aligncenter size-full wp-image-49727" src="http://www.pinkpaislee.com/wp-content/uploads/2016/02/March1_GinaLideros_PatternTut2c.png" height="584" width="550" /></a><br />
<br />
<span style="color: #666666; font-family: "georgia" , "times new roman" , serif;">3. Tie on a piece of each string to the end of each feather. I used strings of various lengths between 5 and 20 cm long.</span><br />
<br />
<a href="http://www.pinkpaislee.com/wp-content/uploads/2016/02/March1_GinaLideros_PatternTut3c.png"><img alt="Mobile Feathers #ppfancyfree | @gina_lideros for @pinkpaislee" class="aligncenter size-full wp-image-49739" src="http://www.pinkpaislee.com/wp-content/uploads/2016/02/March1_GinaLideros_PatternTut3c.png" height="584" width="550" /></a><br />
<br />
<span style="color: #666666; font-family: "georgia" , "times new roman" , serif;">4. Start tying on each feather to your embroidery hoop, tie them on at different lengths, leaving the string long on top. Repeat this step for each feather mobile that you would like to make.</span><br />
<br />
<a href="http://www.pinkpaislee.com/wp-content/uploads/2016/02/March1_GinaLideros_PatternTut4c1.png"><img alt="Mobile Feathers #ppfancyfree | @gina_lideros for @pinkpaislee" class="aligncenter size-full wp-image-49732" src="http://www.pinkpaislee.com/wp-content/uploads/2016/02/March1_GinaLideros_PatternTut4c1.png" height="584" width="550" /></a><br />
<br />
<span style="color: #666666; font-family: "georgia" , "times new roman" , serif;">5. Gather all the loose strings on top and tie them into a knot.</span><br />
<br />
<a href="http://www.pinkpaislee.com/wp-content/uploads/2016/02/March1_GinaLideros_PatternTut5c1c.png"><img alt="Mobile Feathers #ppfancyfree | @gina_lideros for @pinkpaislee" class="aligncenter size-full wp-image-49735" src="http://www.pinkpaislee.com/wp-content/uploads/2016/02/March1_GinaLideros_PatternTut5c1c.png" height="584" width="550" /></a><br />
<br />
<span style="color: #666666; font-family: "georgia" , "times new roman" , serif;">6. Your feather mobile is now complete! Hang from your desired surface and enjoy!</span><br />

<span style="color: #666666; font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;">Hi everyone, I hope that you are enjoying all of the lovely projects that our creative team have created so far using the spiral notebook. I have a post to share with you today, sharing different pages that I have made within my notebook!</span><br />
<br />

<br />
<br />
<br />
<span style="color: #666666; font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;">I started by dedicating the first section as my Hello Today section, this is my introductory page into 2o16, and is a section where I can jot down goals and aspirations for the year ahead.</span><br />
<br />

<br />
<span style="color: #666666; font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;">The Ooh La La page is a transparent page with a photo of my daughter underneath, I will use this section to jot down her growth and challenges throughout the year. IE - she just got her very first job, so I know she has goals for saving for college and for her first car.</span><br />

<br />
<span style="color: #666666; font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;">The Friends Page - I plan on using this section of my notebook to plan future photography gigs and shoots, like the shoot that I did on this day to capture my daughter with her friends.</span><br />

<span style="color: #666666; font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="color: #666666; font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;">The last section that I chose to document in my notebook is the "fun section" I will use this area in my notebook to plan out fun activities with my kids and their friends outside of work.</span><br />

I'm so happy to share my first project for <a href="http://crate.typepad.com/cratepaper/">Crate paper </a>with you today! When I first received the new Bloom collection I couldn't wait to get started right away. There are so many pieces that I love in this collection!</span></span></div>

<span style="background-color: white; line-height: 19.5px; text-align: left;"><span style="color: #666666; font-family: "georgia" , "times new roman" , serif;">I chose to make a layout using several different patterned papers from the collection. One of my favorite techniques is pattern piecing. Because I chose several bold patterns to use together, I kept the main background paper neutral so that the design would not be too overwhelming. I trimmed my papers into small strips and lined them up in a vertical fashion across the bottom of my page. Then I used my sewing machine to adhere a couple of my pieces down.</span></span></div>
