As soon as I saw the new Crush In The Pink line of products I was in love. The only issue was I didn't know if "crushing" was for me. Hmm- what to do? How about I use it on my 12x12 scrapbook pages, that works. I love that when you rip the pages from the book there is the rough notebook edge. Then all the different elements make great layers, I used the Crush In The Pink Assortment and some My Crush In The Pink Sticky Tabs. Then I added a bit of the new Lagoon Heart Washi and a few glitter gems (love them) for some sparkle.

The crush elements can be used in so many different ways, in a Crush album, on a scrapbook page, to jazz up your Picture my Life page, as an element on a home decor project. I am sure you could think of a few more way too- now that we are working outside of the box!!

Here are the detail pictures...

  9. I love your layout, I think it's great that you pulled that page out of the book. I love the My Crush books but never thought to pull out some pages, they certainly have more than you need anyway.
