Since it's May, we're all about the flowers this week! April showers bring May flowers, after all.
Today's bright layout was made using the Echo Park Summer Days paper line and the Cricut Lite Bloom cartridge.
The layout is 12" x 12" and the photo mats are 3.5" x 5".
I put a little hidden journaling tag behind the top photo with a sticker tag that came in the Echo Park paper pack.
These tulips were cut at 2-1/2" and are four layers each. The green grass layer is a border sticker also included in the paper pack.
Between the two photo mats, I cut the large tulip bulbs at 1", all layers.
Finally, "tiptoe through the tulips" was cut at 3-1/4", all layers.
It's a bright layout - hoping not too much for everyone! I love this paper but it can be challenging handling all the different patterns (crossing fingers about it...).
Don't forget we are giving away the Scrap 'n Easel this week! Leave a comment below and under each post this week to maximize your chances!

Have a great day!

Georgeous layout! With all the way we've had lately, we should have plenty of flowers! LOL. I especially like the tulips because they remind me of my grandfather. They were his favorites!
I love your layout! I think the colors are just right. :) You have a knack for making me want to run out and buy a cartridge that I didn't think that I needed before when I look at your projects. ;)
This is absolutely gorgeous! Love the bright colors! I would love to see you guys do more LO's.... :)
TFS!!

Great layout. I just love how the colors in the tulips make them pop off the page.
Great layout! Love tulips! JenBrierley2 at gmail dot com
I think the paper works okay. I agree that putting pattern paper together can be challenging. From Monique, I have begun to do a lot of chalking to make a cleaner divide between patterns.
Love the tulips..I'll have to take a look at that cart and see what else is on it.

Cute LO! I really like the hidden journaling, so many times I'm relunctent to journal because it's private and intended for family eyes only. I love to see ways to hide it so it stays private. Thanks.

I absolutely LOVE this layout!!! Thanks for sharing.
That LO is just too too cute. Tulips definitely are a sign of spring....especially in MN. Sometimese they would come up before all the snow was gone. Very hardy too - my parents had an asphalt driveway and one year two tulips popped up through it!!! Wish I'd have a picture of that!
TFS
Can anyone tell me who wrote that song? It's going to bug me all day... Tiptoe Through The Tulips! Had a Ukelele! Horrible voice... hummm... Adorable idea on the layout!
Beautiful LO! I didn't know this cart had so many layer options...have to give it another look. Love your papers too! Thanks for all the happy colors. (And yes the patterns look great together)

What a cute layout today! I love
the layered tulip border, it's so

on my wishlist.
Love tulips. They are my favorite flower. I love all the patterns together. That is one of the problems I have is seeing the final picture. Thanks for the great, creative ideas.
Tulips remind me of my aunt that died in 2009 at 45... I must go get that cart, now!
The layout is quite cute and I love the hidden journal note page behind the picture place.
Very pretty LO!!! Love the hidden tag!!!
The hidden tag was such a cute idea. This page looks really intricate and turned out really well. It still amazes me what the cricut is capable of. The 3 tulips in the middle are my favorite :)
What a fun and cute layout. TFS
