Welcome to the Lily Bee + Petaloo Blog Party!

Good Morning! This week, we are having a little blog party with our friends at Petaloo. We sent them some Lily Bee goodies, and they sent us beautiful Petaloo products. And throughout this week, we'll be sharing projects from both of our teams. You can view the Petaloo design team projects on their blog.

First, a lovely card by Cindy Liebel.
Directions:
1. Create a background using rubons on top half of card with patterned paper at the bottom.
2. Use a border punch to create a decorative accent for lower half, and the tag.
3. Machine stitch around bottom half of card on pattern paper. Adhere tag on rubon background.
4. Add title using letter stickers & adorn tag with gem & twine.
5. Hide seams using three medium flowers.

Lily Bee supplies:

This & That 6x6 Tiny Tablet
Lovely 12x12 Rub-Ons
Happily Lost ABC Stickers

A super cute layout by Lisa Dickinson.
Directions:
1.  Print journaling on white cardstock, leaving room to stamp title.
2.  Stamp larger title words in orange, green and yellow ink.
3.  Cut patterned paper into 1/4" strips and adhere to the left of title.
4.  Adhere photo strip and flower embellishments, top a few with buttons.
5.  Create vines by drawing lines with a glue pen and adhering twine to the line.
