Loving Waves 12x12 Scrapbook Layout using Pretty Little Studio Shine Bright Collection - Lydia Cost

I’m up on the Pretty Little Studio blog this morning, featuring this 12×12 Layout all about my current favorite hairstyle!

This one includes a couple hours worth of hand-punching, stitching, and cutting, and the result was so worth it!  I’m in love with the way the hand-stitching looks against those beautiful watercolor pieces in the Shine Bright collection.

When I began this layout, I don’t think I was quite prepared for how many hours of stitching would go into this pretty frame, but the labor of love was worth the effort!

I titled my layout with a die-cut word and some Thickers.  I really loved the way this layout has so much dimension and character!  It’s getting put up on my wall for sure!

Citrus Twist Kits Life Crafted - Life Chapters - Album Spread - Lydia Cost

I’m so excited to be bringing you guys my first ever Citrus Twist Kits project!  I fell so in love with this month’s kit called Life Chapters, and I could not wait to share it with you!

This page was inspired by this screenshot of my Audible account.  I reached Master level last year with 103 books read over the year.  Audible had re-posted on their Instagram account a message a gal had written about adding MA to her post-nominal initials, and I thought that was so funny and clever, so I had to record the achievement myself in true, papercrafting fashion… Lydia Cost MAud.
