Welcome to our February Blog Hop
featuring a 2 page layout. This is the first Blog Hop for us where we
have featured just scrapbook layouts. We hope that you will take the
time to leave comments on our posts, as we love to get feedback from our
viewers....whether it was something that you really liked or some new
technique that was used that you would like to learn how to do....by
leaving us comments, we get to hear what you like, and what you want to
see. Thank you… now on to our hop!

The eyes in the half circle at the top right of page one, and bottom left from on page two are from the Sparkles, Red, Pink and Purple Assorted Pack Z1326. I used the large pinker ones on the purple sheet in the pack.
For the three inch circle in the bottom left of page one I used
White Daisy cardstock for the base and then I cut pie shapes using both sides of the
different patterned papers included in the Chantilly paper pack. The middle
circle is one of the two one inch circles described above. The centre is one of
the Chantilly assorted covered buttons.
Your next stop on the Cross Canada Hop is Terry Ann Diack of terryanndiack.blogspot.ca.

My two page layout this month is based on the Chantilly
Workshop on the Go on page 21 of the Spring Summer 2013.
I did not use the kit itself in error but recreated my own
design using the Chantilly line from Paper Packet X7163B.
For the leaf and flower stamps I used the Alphabet set E1019
The leaves are done in Sweet Leaf Z2153
The Flower in the upper right I used Cranberry Z2116
The eyes in the half circle at the top right of page one, and bottom left from on page two are from the Sparkles, Red, Pink and Purple Assorted Pack Z1326. I used the large pinker ones on the purple sheet in the pack.
I have put a flip flap in the centre so that I can make more
use of pictures, and/or to journal once side and have a picture on the other. I
haven’t quite decided yet.
I cut 18 one inch circles in half to create the semi –circle
borders, outlining using the Cranberry marker Z2316
The two one inch circles are outlined using the same
marker.
For the three inch circle in the bottom left of page one I used
White Daisy cardstock for the base and then I cut pie shapes using both sides of the
different patterned papers included in the Chantilly paper pack. The middle
circle is one of the two one inch circles described above. The centre is one of
the Chantilly assorted covered buttons.
On page two the main difference is that I inserted three 3”
x 5” rectangles to attach pictures to at a later date.
The semi-circle in the upper left was done using a three
inch circle cut in half and pie shapes cut from some of the two sided pages
included in the Chantilly paper pack.
The flower at the bottom right of page two came from the
Chantilly Complements Dimensional Elements X7163C.
I thought the birds on the Chantilly Paisley sheet were so
beautiful that I used one as the centre of my border on page two.
