Thanks for joining us for day nine of our blog hop. Tomorrow is out big finale, so you don't want to miss it. I have saved the best for last. I hope you are taking the time to visit every blog. There are some amazing projects being shared this week. If you are making the rounds in order, then you just arrived from Mindy Bingamon's blog.
This precious little girl is my great niece, Patty. She has the most beautiful brown eyes I have ever seen. Todays project is another MDS digital hybrid 12"x12" page. It has so many layers on it that if it were made with traditional elements it would have weighed a ton. One of the many things I love about digital scrapbooking is that you can try different elements on a layout. If they don't work you can easily start over without feeling guilty about wasting paper.
I really wanted to add some "real" ribbon to this page, so I printed the background layers and the top layers seperately. I added the ribbon, bow, and button, and then placed the additional layers over it with dimensionals. I used some of the bleached seam binding ribbon that I told you about yesterday. To make the page look even more traditional, I printed the tag, trimmed it out, and slipped it between layers. I also sponged the edges of the different layers and the tag. I saved a lot of time by creating this page in MDS and then assembling it.
Well, that is all for today. Be sure to head on over to see which awesome project Holly VanDyne has in store for us today. This blog hop will take you in a complete circle, but if you happen to lose your way, here is a list you can refer to. Tomorrow is the final day of our ten day event, so don't miss it!
