Welcome to Becca's Heart for Creativity blog!
why: This posting shares my newest design team contribution to friend Deanne's Paper-Rocks-Scissors challenge blog. The theme is easy: anything goes using paper and/or scissors! It's been a few months since I've used papers, stickers and ephemera from The Simple Life collection by Simple Stories. I have used some of the tiny text strip stickers but not other items included in the sticker book or ephemera packs. Adding the doily edge helps soften the layout and make it look like it came from Grandma's home!
when: #9 starts on October 2nd and ends on October 31, 2025.
what: Project #1 = Family: where life begins and love never ends memory card
how-to &/or vendor notes for #1 =
