My Creative Time June Release Blog Hop - You Are My Sunshine LO

Hello and welcome to the June Release Blog Hop with My Creative Time.  If this is your first stop, hop on back to Emma's blog to start at the beginning and to get all the details for the hop.  Happy first day of SUMMER for those in the northern hemisphere.  Today I have a layout of my three kiddos that I created with this new AWESOME release from My Creative Time.

For my layout, I stitched some blue patterned paper to a 12 x 12 piece of white background cardstock.  I then added a little bit of green cardstock to the bottom that I hand cut into hills and embossed with my Cuttlebug and Swiss Dots embossing folder.  I stitched around these with some black thread and my sewing machine.  I then added some grass that I cut on my Cricut and the Spring 2010 digital cartridge (that I welded together in Cricut Craft Room).  I added some stitching to that as well.  The pole and clothes pins are cut from Straight from the Nest.  I added some texture to the pole with my Cuttlebug and Distressed Stripes embossing folder.  The clothes line is .05 Hemp Twine from Liz's Paper Loft Boutique.

The plane and clouds are die-cut from the new Fly Away With Me Dies and the banner is stamped and cut with the new Fly Away With Me Sentiments.  The plane is also stamped with the new Fly Away With Me Stamps.  Isn't this such a fun release??  I cut the sun out with my Cricut and the Art Philosophy cartridge.  The light yellow paper that I used on the sun and for "sun-shine" is Wausau pearl cardstock, so there is a little shine on it that you can't see to well in the photos.

For the title, I used the XL Label Die from My Creative Time and added some pen stitching to it.  I cut the title from my Cricut and the Wild Card 2 cartridge.  I added it to the label with some foam adhesive to give it some dimension.  I tied a little bit more of the .05 MM Hemp Twine from Liz's Paper Loft Boutique to the label and also to tie the plane and banner together and tied into the button on the sun.

I thought it would be fun to add my journaling to the edges of the little hills to help draw the eye across the layout.  So, what do you think??  If you want to see the card I made with the newest release using the hot air balloon, CLICK HERE or scroll down on my blog.
