The Confectionary Monochromatic Collection is truly YUMMY! Not only are the papers named with delish titles, but the browns and neutrals are rich and dreamy! I immediately thought of dessert like ice cream. I had this photo of a map that was in an ice cream parlour in Anna Maria Island, Florida (Something with “Olaf” [...]
This morning, our altered art guru, Andrea Budjack, is back with another tutorial! Bloom and Grow Scalloped Border I love scalloped borders.

She did it, with the help of some training wheels. This layout uses the Young Love Monochromatic Family (It’s all pinks- what could be more [...]
