Dear Lizzy Enchanted Week
This week we're featuring projects made with the brand new Dear Lizzy Enchanted line!
Inspired, in part, by the traditional Alice in Wonderland
mythology, the line features whimsical floral and butterfly patterned
paper (six are laser-cut!), and key and teacup embellishments - perfect for
creating an enchanted world with paper. First on the list is a dreamy layout by Wendy Sue Anderson:

Wendy Sue says, "I am so excited to be one of the first to use this new Dear Lizzy line! As I was flipping through my photo album, I came across these photos from an afternoon of kite flying – the colors worked perfectly and so did the theme…it was really a fun, magical kind of day, so the Enchanted line seemed a perfect fit!"
I love the grouping of embellishments Wendy Sue put together and how the colors truly match perfectly! It's like these photos and this line were meant to be.
Wendy also created this cute card to accompany her layout:
Supplies: 12x12 Cardstock White
(71081) - AC Cardstock, Graceful Swan Paper (35248) – Dear Lizzy
Enchanted, Noble James Paper (35250) – Dear Lizzy Enchanted, Charming
Collin Paper (35263) – Dear Lizzy Enchanted, Hyacinth (78041) –
Details, Damsel Accents & Phrases (43387) – Minimarks, Ethereal
(42179) – Remarks Stickers, Exquisite (42181) Remarks Stickers, Fantastic Wine (53107) – Thickers, Strip Glue Runner (61712) - Adhesives
Wendy shares a great tip about card-making: "I am a big fan of making cards with leftovers from layouts. Almost any time I create a layout, I have plenty of scraps and accents sitting on my desk - items that I've already chosen because they match or coordinate, so putting together a card is easy! That's how this card came about. The papers, rub ons, stickers, accents...everything was already sitting out on my desk. All I had to do was decide on a design, add some stitching, and put it all together. Next time you finish a layout, look at the 'leftovers' on your table, and rather than putting away (or throwing away, gasp!) the scraps, see how many cards you can put together"
Thanks for the great ideas Wendy!
