It has been a busy few weeks for me, so I wasn't prepared here on my blog when my picture showed up on the American Crafts blog on Wednesday!
When Paige Evans emailed me a few months ago asking me to create projects with the theme of 'use it up', mixing and matching several different collections, I was over the moon. Then when my box of goodies showed up, I was ecstatic. Here are the layouts that I created.
This layout is my favorite that I created. It records my god daughter's birthday party. I loved these photos of her and the 5th & Frolic mixed with the valentine XOXO collection worked perfectly together!
This layout records us at the paralympics in London in August. I love the colors going on in this layout! On this one, I mixed 5th & Frolic and Amy Tangerine Ready Set Go. The 'adventure' part of my title was cut with my Silhouette and backed with woodgrain paper.
Green floral paper + woodgrain= LOVE! On this layout, I used a lot of Soho Garden, mixed with both 5th & Frolic and Amy Tangerine Ready Set Go.
To see the other projects I created, which include mini Valentines cards & a printer's tray, go to the American Crafts blog here.
Thanks for stopping by! Do you feel confident about mixing different collections? What do you find to be the hardest part?

oh i love them all, they are all such fresh colours. Well done you on being asked to work with it all. Off to read about your dear girl now :)
YAY congrats--you did FABULOUSLY!!
Beautiful work Meghann and congrats on your AC Guest spot!!
Meghann, each of these layouts are beautiful. I feel inspired to get gong with Dillon's scrapbook. I have been so lazy with it. How exciting to see you as a guest designer. Your work is worthy of this.
I rarely mix different collections. I have a block in my head that they won't work. I must try to get over this and see a way of blending them. xx
Wow, your layouts are amazing! I too love the first layout the most. The colours are so spring-like, which is what I'm in need of.
