Welcome!

I thought I would introduce myself and start posting some of the work that I have done using products from Eye-Lets Etc. First of all my name is Pam, some of you may know me from my own blog Paper Askew Studio. I have been in the paper crafts industry for over 12 years now. I really started enjoying stamping and scrap booking about 5 years ago. Paper crafting is my passion and it is very rare that I do not go a day without getting my hands on a project. I have been asked to head the ~Lets blog design team and cannot wait until our team has been created. I look forward to a lot of fun and inspiring projects as well as contests here at ~Lets blog! Please feel free to leave comments, ask questions or share a link to your own creations at any time. With that being said, on to the first project!
I made this page using pattern paper, flowers and eyelets all from ELE (Eye-Lets Etc.). I started out with two different pieces of pattern paper, Dusty Blue & Daisy Yellow I laid the two sheets on top of one another and cut them into strips. I then adhered the strips alternating colors to get a sun beam affect. I then covered chipboard pieces (from Stampin' UP!) using Buttercream Script pattern paper to make a sun. The lettering on this page was done with my Cricut and cartridge called "Alphalicious". These gorgeous flowers are one of ELE's newest products called "Bloom-lets" they come in a variety of colors, shapes and sizes. The quality of these flowers is fabulous! I used a variety of eyelets to make centers in these flowers and added them to the page with foam dots. As you can see, the 3/16" eyelets have enough room inside to set an additional standard size eyelet. Too Fun!!
Hope you have enjoyed the first project here at ~Lets blog. My hopes are to have at least one project here a week until we have a design team to help out.

Thanks for stopping by. Hope to see you again real soon!
~Pam
