Welcome to the blog hop with Little Yellow Bicycle and Petaloo.  Our Biker Chick team has loved working with many of the beautiful Petaloo products along with LYB's gorgeous Hello Spring collection.  Below are a couple of my projects.
This is my gorgeous niece.  Her mommy decked her out in this beautiful spring dress that looked like it was meant to be scrapped with Hello Spring.    I wanted to add a lot of flowers but really loved how these Petaloo Tie-Dyed Gypsies match the paper so well and give the page a very subtle look.
No inking necessary on these flowers, it is already done for you.  I love how the clear cut shaped flourish from LYB looks with the flowers.
I added some handstitching with pink velvet floss to give the page a little more definition and interest.


Please hop to all of the following Biker Chick blogs to see the beautiful projects they have created, leave a comment on their blogs, and go back to the LYB blog to tell us what you saw.  Your comments automatically enter you into a drawing to win some of our Hello Spring collection.



 Happy Mother's Day!

Thank you so much for stopping by today and for your participation in our blog hop.
