Bright sunshine-y Monday!

Hi friends,
I hope that your Monday is off to a great start. I have been under the weather with a head cold that we seem to be passing around our house. I am the last in my household to get it, so I knew that it was bound to happen. Our weather is supposed to be in the mid 90's today, so that is cheering me up a bit.

I wanted to share a layout that I recently made using the Blissful collection from Authentique.

Share your smile layout:

This layout is about a friendship with my friend and neighbor
Ashley

I love the papers in this collection they are so bright and cheerful!

I used the front and backsides of Felicity paper:



I backed it with Pleasant paper:


for the title I used the share your smile tag from the Icons sheet:


and for embellishments, I made cute little butterflies out of photo corners from the tag sheet:
these butterflies were so fun and easy to make. I just added buttons and Divine twine from Whisker Graphics.


I will be back tomorrow with a fun project that I made using the Journey collection.
Thanks for stopping by!

Have you seen the new...

Authentique? If you haven't seen it or played with it in person yet, let me tell you - it is amazing! I love the textures, I love the colors, I love everything about it!

Here is a recent layout that I created with their Splendid collection.



I made this layout into a pocket page using their foundations paper. Here is a close up:


Their foundations paper is two sided, so that you can easily make pocket pages and other fun projects.


this line is so versatile that it works well for boy pages too.
Say Cheese layout


Adore layout



and because I love making cards, I used some of Authentiques other lines for these projects.

From the Blissful collection:

Hope you sing card:


You make life Blissful card:


and from the Uncommon collection:

aren't the Authentique lines amazing? And did you know that Authentique is having their first ever DT call? You can read about it on their site or blog . I am trying out for their team because I love their lines so much! How about you?

Thanks for stopping by, and I have an altered Halloween project in the works, using Authentiques new Glowing line. I will be back on later to post photos and a fun step by step.
