I first saw Vicki Boutin's work a few years ago when she was on the design team for a kit club and fell in love with her style -she has the ability for bringing lots of different styles and textures together which makes me so envious! If you read any of the US magazines then you will have definitely seen Vicki and this year she is on the Scrapbooks Etc All Star Creative Team for the magazines 10th anniversary year. Vicki is also on design teams for Scenic Route and Sassafras Lass. One super talented lady!
Over to Vicki:
When Bev asked if I would like to play with some of her Banana Frog stamps, I said sure! I was totally intrigued by the fun name of company. When the stamps arrived, I loved the little envelopes they came in and the patterns were so much fun!
Once I sat down and actually used the stamps, I was totally impressed! They stamp beautifully, with nice clean impressions! And I have to say that I am in love with the cupcakes! They worked so well with my little girls birthday pictures. With the images being outlines, I was able use the stamps with some of my favourite patterned papers to make little paper piecings. Lots of fun!!!
Vicki used Budmo Jiggler, Build-a-cupcake and Concentric on this layout celebrating her daughter Devyn's 4th birthday.
Vicki has used glitter glue on the Budmo Jiggler letters to really make it stand out.
Next, Vicki used Concentric and Swirls to make this gorgeous card.
Thank you Vicki your layout and card are gorgeous!
