Echo Park Spotlight

A couple of months ago, Echo Park announcing their 'Fresh Faces' Monthly Designer Call. Now I thought that's what I call a 'fresh' idea. And since I've bought a few of the Echo Park lines already and like to look of some of their new lines as well, I thought... Why not?

I'll start off with a card and a layout that I created with the 'Be Mine' collection, which is one of my favourites. I love the swirls, colours and patterns.

This card I made for my friend Beth, who celebrated her birthday almost two months ago already. I chose grey and pink for her card, as they are her favourite colours.

Supplies: Cardstock: Bazzill Basics Paper (white) | Patterned Paper: Echo Park (Be Mine collection) | Clear Stamsp: Waltzing Mouse (Say It Loud), Papertrey Ink (Butterfly Dreams) | Pearls: KaiserCraft | Roses: Spotlight | Ink: Stampin'Up, Papertrey Ink (Tea Die Duo) | Die: Papertrey Ink (Butterfly, Mat Stack 4) | Ribbon: Vandoros | Lace: Spotlight

Next is a layout which was featured on the Scrapbooks Etc. blog as well as on Valerie's Got Sketch? Blog for sketch 125. I did use a strip of brown October Afternoon paper on this layout, because the 'Be Mine' collection didn't have any. They compliment each other really well.

Supplies: Cardstock: Bazzill Basics Paper | Patterned Paper: Echo Park (Be Mine Collection), Papertrey Ink (Fly a Kite Collection) | Alphabet Chipboard: American Crafts | Clear Stamps: Papertrey Ink (Calendar Basics), Creative Café | Dies: Papertrey Ink (Butterfly, Large Scalloped Border) | Punches: Fiskars (Heart), EK Success (Circles), Martha Stewart (Deep Fan) | Twine: The Twinery | Buttons | Ink: Stampin'Up

The following two cards I created using Echo Park's Springtime Collection. They are both for girls that celebrated their eighth birthday.

And last but not least...

I've got one more Echo Park card to show you, but I'll save that one for next week, as it's in the post en route to its recipients right now.

Have a fabulous day.
