The new frontier....

or so it seems. There I have been scrapping with Danyeela pattern paper for months now. Almost exclusively, too, it seems. But when she sent me some of her new 12x12 papers (as opposed to A4) I was stumped. I looked at the papers. I smelled the papers. I stroked the papers. I admired the papers. But.... I didn't SCRAP the papers. They were too big! That's what it must have felt like when the pioneers started to cross the Great Plains. So much wide open space! Okay, not really, but you get my point, right?

However, I got over my fear. I cut into it. I used it. And this is what I came up with. I still used the A4 Papers, but the background is a complete sheet of 12x12 Danyeela Pattern Paper. LOVE IT!!!!



Other materials used: Heidi Swapp chipboard letters, Elsie cupcake sticker, misc. ribbon, trim, eyelets and rubons.

So, off to start the new week..... I have "fun" things planned for today... a visit with my PCP, unemployment agency, the health department.... oh yeah, it is going to be a fantastic day. Insert eyeroll!

Have a good one.
