monday . . .

Did anyone else have a GORGEOUS weather weekend??? 70s & sunny all weekend only to end today with rain :( We definitely enjoyed it while it was here though :) We spent the weekend doing a bit of spring cleaning & totally "purged" the garage of all the stuff that had piled up over the winter. Finally we can fit our cars in there!!! I did manage to fit in some scrappy time :) I spent a few nights working with the the adorable Live Loud collection by Imaginisce. My little man LOVES music, whether it be singing, dancing, or playing instruments so this line was perfect for these pics . . .

I am recently into tags so I found some coordinating cardstock and created a tag to build my title on. A mix of Thickers, Imaginisce's awesome rub-ons & chipboard, and some doodling resulted in this . . .

I also decided to add a bit of black within the white circles on this orange patterned paper - I think it really made it "pop". Being little strips, it posed a bit tricky to glue down, especially at the ends. However, I whipped out my FAVORITE liquid glue by Tombow Adhesives to adhere the strips with no problem at all. As design team members of Imaginisce we were fortunate enough to receive a pile of goodies from Tombow this month - I was so excited to see their Mono Aqua Liquid Glue because it is the only liquid glue I use. The fine tip is perfect for adhering the littlest details on your layout :) Check it out in action here - the strips adhered perfectly . . .

In addition I worked on this card featuring the Live Loud line as well. I couldn't resist using this cute robot somewhere & he was the perfect touch to this card :)

Have a fab Monday!!
