Altered Book:Cherish, Dream, Love

... Cherish Yesterday
Dream Tomorrow
Live Today...

Today,  I have a little altered mini book to share. 

I have combined the gorgeous The ScrapCake Bright Side of Life Collection with some Twiddleybitz loveliness. 

 A Twiddleybitz BK014 Altered Book has created the perfect foundation.

A sweet bike element was also added to the front cover- this was cut from the Twiddleybitz Lampost and bike with flower basket 

The album pages were first covered using the The Bright Side of Life 12 x 12 patterned papers.     
For coordination the following colour pattern was followed – 2 x blue, 2 x pink, 2 x beige, 2 x blue.
Tag elements from the “Natural Beauty” patterned paper were cut out and used to layer behind the photos. 
 Twiddleybitz chipboard add accents - Banners and Heart Border Flourish were cut up to maximize coverage throughout the book. 
 Some hand and die cut elements from the patterned papers were also added.
 A medley of pretty blooms and some sweet Kaiser sentiment rub-ons finish it off. 

Thanks so much for dropping by,

xx T
