Pebbles National Scrapbook Day Blog Hop: Fun In The Sun

Hello and welcome!  In the spirit of National Scrapbook Day a few of us over at Pebbles Inc. are participating in a fun little blog hop.  You should be arriving here from Holly's blog or if you are just joining us you can start at the beginning at the Pebbles blog.  :)

I decided to create a summer themed layout using Pebbles newest Fun In The Sun collection.  I think this just might be my favorite line from the year!  The happy colors and darling images totally make me smile every time I see them.  :)

For my pool themed layout I wanted to incorporate all the darling beach wear die-cuts and I thought a little clothesline would be the perfect way to do that!

I actually started this layout with an adorable red polka-dot swimsuit die-cut from the collection but it sadly clashed with the colors in my photos so I used it as inspiration to die-cut another one from the Silhouette store with a similar feel.  I had a blast embellishing all my die-cuts with punched flowers, enamel dots and twine.  I love how these simple touches really bring the shapes to life!

For my title, I combined the puffy phrase stickers with the rainbow striped thickers from the collection.  I chose to mimic the rainbow colors in my journaling strips and I love the results!  :)

Thanks so much for stopping by.  Make sure to check out all the inspiring projects at my fellow teammates blogs.  Each of us are giving away a Pebbles 6x6 Lakeside paper pad today as part of the hop so you have six chances to win!  You have until Midnight on Sunday (PST) to leave a comment.  Winners will be announced on Monday.  :)
