Just So Blessed


Over the weekend, I challenged myself to make a layout using only the backside of all the Taste of Summer B&T papers.  As yummy and pretty as the fruity side of this paper pack is, I wanted to show that even if you weren't a fan of the main fruit patterns, the back side of each paper features a fun fundamental pattern that can be used for so many things... like this bright cheery layout below!

ENJOY!!


Supplies used:
*Taste of Summer paper packet
*Happiness Lives Here stamp set (retired)
*Black cardstock
*Black Exclusive Inks stamp pad
*White Daisy cardstock
*Black & Grey Epoxy Bubbles
*Marvy® Uchida® LePen™ Journaling Pen
*Artbooking Cricut Collection

I bought two of these fabulous paper packs.  I'm thinking I'll keep the second one just to use for the back sides of the B&T papers.  They are so fun!!!
