You Light Up My Life

Well we got back from vacation.  We had so much fun.  We went on a horseback ride in the Smoky Mountains and this is what we ran into:

This is the only picture we were able to get.  It startled the horses (as well as us!) and we got out of there as quick as we could!

Here is a waterfall that was along the trail.  It was a very scenic horseback ride.  We really enjoyed it.

Well here is the layout I promised to post.  This was a fun layout to make.

The patterns for this is from the "You Light Up My Life" collection by KaDoodle Bug Designs.

For the "bulb" bodies and stars I actually used copic markers to color them.  I used some of the plastic that my cricut cartridges come in for the jar.

For their wings, I used a light blue vellum paper.  I added some stickles glittler glue and then used my embossing gun to dry them to keep them from curling up too much.  I really like using this technique for the wings.  

If you haven't checked out KaDoodle Bug Designs yet you should go see the cute paper piecings she has to offer.  She also has some very cute digi stamps.  If you go now, she is having a Memorial Day Sale which is 65% off your purchase of $25.00 or more.  Now is a good time to stock up.  Make sure to take a peek at her freebie page:)

Have a wonderful Memorial Day Weekend!
