Sisters
This is another layout that I made for Scrapbooking m.m. (the March/April issue). I used almost all Prima goodies:
I've been really into crocheting on my pages again lately, and this time I used some pretty teal yarn. I used Shimmerz to create the rainbow of color on the background:
I have a small stash of vintage rhinestones buttons and broaches, and I save them for special pages. I really need to find a good (and cheap!) source for more of these treasures. Here's a close up:
Things are quiet for me right now in terms of my DT and other scrapbooking assignments, so I'm going to do something I haven't done in a very long time . . . I going to take a little break from scrapping for the rest of the week and weekend. I think it will be just what I need to recharge my creative batteries!

How beautiful! I love your shimmers background and I LOVE your lace (?) on the border of the layout. How did you get that effect? BEAUTIFUL!!
I did a bit of research on those brooches you were looking for.. some are so pricey!! Here's a site I found with brooches for $5-$15.

Not too bad, but you might have more luck at a thrift store at something better priced?
Keep us posted! :)
Love your LO !
the rainbow background is gorgeous!
the way you crochet your LOS is splendid
and your blog was linked in one of the israelis
communes for your crochet and scrap integration.
I too love the rainbow background!!! Just stunning!!! I love the brooches tooo...they are just beautiful!!
Take that break and ENJOY!!!
Beautifully done!
Thanks for all the comments, ladies! And thank you Darlene for the link. I'll definitely check it out. I got lucky once on Ebay -- I bought two jars full of vintage buttons for about $10 each, and both jars had lots of gorgeous rhinestone buttons mixed in with the regular buttons. I don't think I'll get that lucky again, LOL!!
Oh ow, loving the crochet ( Im having a really love affair right now with my hook).
I am so incredibly jealous of your button story! I seem to be always 5 mins to late for the great button finds of the century
oh, I LOVE the crocheting...very nicely done!!
This is so pretty Stacey! Enjoy your well deserved break!
you're right on recharging your batteries!! hugs to you!!
