I fell in love with the American Made release - the vintage styling and distressed colors just made me smile.
I could see myself using it for several photos but like everyone else who loves My Minds Eye products but who doesn't live in the USA or visit often, I found myself using the imagery for completely difference reasons.That's one of the reason I love using My Minds Eye products - the versatility of every release!
I added some Lost & Found Brads, Lime Twist Alphas along with some Lush Alphabets and buttons to the papers to make the following layouts.
The 14th of August is our relationship date - we'd been friends for 6 months previously and we'll be together 13 years this weekend. I used the die cut telegraph shapes as we had a long distance relationship - different countries - for several months so we wrote a lot of letters.
This is Fay last year right after her ear operation for grommets (tubes) in both ears. Besides improving her hearing, Fay's speech and balance improved immensely so we're very proud of Fay as she did so well.
I love RocketDog Shoes - cute and comfortable!!
I was blessed to get the chance to go to CHA last winter in LA and I stayed in Little Tokyo where my friends introduced me to the wonders of Yogurtland - yumminess!!
My girls are awesome to me, to each other they are like cats and dogs but some times they behave like angels. We have a running joke in the house that those 5 minutes are "The United States of Sisterhood" so I was delight to see I could use that die cut!
I struggle with "white space" layouts but this one worked out so well. This die cut worked so well because Lily was born in July and the pinwheel covers up the '4th' perfectly.
I hope you feel inspired to use the papers for layouts that are not necessarily Americana themed.
Have a wonderful weekend.
