Bliss (My Creative Sketches January)

Despite all the chaos happening around my house the last couple weeks (i am happy to say that the renovations should finally come to an end tomorrow!!!), i still was able to sneak in some scrappin' time.

On the weekend, i played with January's sketch from My Creative Sketches:

I spent quite a while looking in my stash of pictures for one special single shot to scrapbook and then, once i found it, i had to look through my HUGE collection of paper for the perfect patterns to match it.  Pink Paislee's beautiful Butterfly Garden immediately caught my eye!  :)

As you can see, lots of punchwork, handmade stitching and distressing went into this layout.  I especially love the way the Pink Paislee butterflies look with the Kaisercraft wooden cage. 

 The brown chipboard title and other pieces are from K&Company and were originally white but i colored them using my Copic markers.

All flowers are from Prima while the swirly bling is from Zva Creative.

Doesn't it make you long for Spring?!  Well, in the middle of this long and cold Winter, i sure hope it leaves a happy, peaceful and warm feeling in your heart as it does in mine :)
