I am slowly making my way back to scrapping. It has been a challenging year and  I've often felt blocked, my creative mojo vanquished. But I've been sitting in my room slowly looking through things and thought that I might start out with things or people who inspire me. On that note I decided to scrap a photo of my favorite singer Pink! I love this woman and her awesome voice. She sings from the heart and her songs are often related to everyday life, things that we can relate to. I admire her for her social conscience, out spoken manner and wicked sense of humor! She is truly a gifted artist! On that note I give you the layout song bird. . .

I decided to use a paper line I love for its gorgeous color, Zella Teal from Prima Marketing.

I enjoy fussy cutting (it's therapuetic, lets me think quietly) and just had to fussy cut some of the gorgeous blooms from one of the pages. I inked all my elements with Tim Holtz's distress ink in ground expresso. I also used a new stencil from 13@rts for my background.

Lindy's Stamp Gang mists are usually my go to for color and for this I used Jack in the Pulpit Teal, Ces't La Vie Cerise and Dark Chocolate Truffle. I also stamped my background with a music stamp from Prima and a text stamp from Bo Bunny.

This collection has beautiful elements in their chipboard and stickers. The whole line is amazing. I found  perfect stickers to describe Pink- Fearless and the one in black which is hard to read that says" we are dreamers".

The flowers in this line are oh so pretty!! 

I used some feathers from Duty Attic and heat embossed them in various colors to match my papers. I also added Prills in teal and silver sequins that come with the chipboard.

I also used some Marth Stewart Glitter and mixed it with Gel Medium going around the edges just lightly to add more glitter and sparkle to the layout.

I used American Craft DIY Thickers and sprayed them with Lindy's Stamp gang  Mist in Raven black. Once dried I added black glitter to them then sprayed them with hairspray to keep it all in place.

That's it for now. It feels nice to be back. I hope you liked it. I'll see you again soon. All the best! :)
