I also design for Paper Thrills Challenge Blog and the latest challenge there was in honor of Leap Year. We were asked to do a layout that involved leaping. I didn't have any leaping photos on hand and decided that for me leaping would be in the techniques I used. For those of you that are not familiar with my work I often only use a one word title or even just a date so I decided to go with a long title using a few different fonts. And for my real big leap, I am new to mixed media and have been testing out different mediums in my art journal and I decided to take a leap and use some molding paste on a layout.

As it was drying I added some Beadies for sprinkles. I was really happy with the way they came out. So here's my leap-
I'm Paula, an avid scrapbooker with 2 nearly grown sons. I have been scrapping for about 17 years & decided that I would like to share my love & talents for it with others. I created 'Precious Pages by Paula' to do exactly that. There is a line of pre-designed scrapbooks & frames, as well as doing custom one-of-a-kind albums with your photos. Cards are prayerfully made in the hopes of carrying special blessings to their recipients.

Latest Design Team Challenges!

Hope you have enjoyed my DT work. Come back again as there will be 2 more challenges in 2 weeks. (and some other posts in between about various other projects I'm involved in!)
