I know I blogged before about the Quick Quotes Dreamscape scrapbooking line (click here to see it) but after seeing this new line – now I am not sure which one I like better!
Loved this new line “One Fine Day”

I found myself really really drawn to the soft colour pallette and versatility of this new line!!!! I guess I will have to get both new lines!
and that is a GOOD THING! Thank you Quick Quotes!

Okay here is my take on the Jan sketch up on our Sketchy Challenge Gallery!
Madeline and Hannah’s eyes are looking kinda scarey in this photo!!!!! LOL!!! Oh Well!!!
I used the VINTAGE Vogue Collection from Pink Paislee to create this layout. In fact everything is Pink Paislee except for the Robin’s Nest Dew Drops! YES Pink Paislee has gorgeous foam alphabets!

I often get asked how I adhere the my favourite Robin’s Nest Dew Drops to my pages…..

Well – I never leave the house without my Zip Dry!!! Holds tight and dries clear!!! LOVE it!
Here is the Jan Sketch designed by the lovely Jill Sarginson that inspired my layout. I started by flipping it!

Wanna play along with us each month and/or get inspired by other fellow scrapbookers? Visit our Sketchy Gallery! It’s tons of fun!
