I wasn’t planning on posting anything today but I was up until 130am this morning working on this layout so I just HAD to share! Especially since it has it’s own “Independence” theme going on. HA!!!!!
Wanna hear something cool????
It’s my VERY FIRST HYBRID LAYOUT!!!!
Yep… lots of digital elements on here that I printed, cut out and scrapped! I will NEVER be a full-on digital scrapbooker…. I love scissors, paper, and glue too much. Using my hands is the fun part. But I AM IN LOVE with this Hybrid thing!!! Having the flexibility of sizing things how you need them and just printing another one if you mess up is WAY….. WELL…… FREAKING COOL!!!!!!!
here’s the deets on this layout so you can see which elements are digital and which are traditional:
Bookworm - by Kristin Cronin Barrow
pp13 - red Alpha paper
red-2 - big “2″ circle
Independent - by Shawna Clingerman & Nikki Epperson
p6 - Argyle paper
paper2 - Light Blue star paper
bracket - Big Blue brackets
fierce, strong, and fearless - wordart
Traditional Supplies:
Collage Press-Camden Collection-Island Retreat-background paper
American Crafts-Rainboots Puffy letter stickers
Flag picks and hemp from Hobby Lobby
Okay……….. I need to say while I am posting how eternally grateful I am for all those who serve our country in defense of our FREEDOMS that we take for granted daily. I feel very blessed to live in and be a citizen of this amazing Country… USA. Everyone knows SOMEONE who has or who IS serving in the military. It’s always a good day to hug them and tell them thank you for their sacrifices. But especially today…. July 4th!
Enjoy this weekend with family and friends! Stay safe! ♥
