My sweet Molly-Dog was my inspiration for this scrapbook layout. I created the banner using the Country Life cartridge. The bottom layer is a simple scallop banner cut and the top is just a plain banner cut, but to jazz it up a bit, I cut the top layer from Dear Lizzy adhesive-backed fabric paper. I've had it in my stash since this past spring and after awhile, I wondered if I would ever end up using it... now I am just so glad I had it to use on this project...and for the record... the fabric paper cuts like a DREAM on the Cricut!
I cut the flowers from Dear Lizzy glitter paper and doubled some of them for a 3-D effect. Some Japanese paper tape, Hero Arts pearls and Dear Lizzy foam alphas provided for the perfect finishing touches to this super feminine layout of my middle daughter Cait and my sweet (and bossy) Molly-Dog.
