7 Kids College Fund - Tim Holtz - Idea-ology Blog Hop! 8-)



Hi All! And a Very Happy Saturday to you!! Well, 7 Kids College Fund is onto it's 2nd ever blog hop!  We learn from the first and improve with each one.  So exciting and even more fun.  This hop is all about Tim Holtz and his Idea-ology line of trinkets.  Each one has amazing detail and it's hard to choose a favorite... 8-)

 Here's what I came up with... 8-)
I stamped my Papillion Stampers Anonymous  BG onto some Beautiful dp's from Mellissa Frances' Attic Treasures 6x6 collection with Memento Rich Coco and matted it up with some pretty peachy/ pink CS from my stash. My Papillion butterflies were created the same way with the addition of shading from my trusty Copics and some fussy cutting, I popped them up onto my BG. To finish it all up I added a Sweet layered flower from my stash, ( Love getting to use up those left over goodies! ) topped off with a Pretty Tim Holtz Idea- ology Accoutrement button, some yummy TH Idea-ology Symphony Tissue tape and a bit of ribbon from my stash too!... 8-)


Our design team has had a blast playing with all the goodies from the Tim Holtz line.  We hope you hop on over to see them all & be sure to  leave a some Love along the way, because one random winner will be chosen from one of our Fab designers's Blog.. The hop will be open until Tuesday the 26th and the winner will be announced Wednesday the 27th! Here's the Awesome Prize up for Grabs... 8-)
