Elle's Studio Handmade Layers

Have you seen the latest Elle's Studio Collection, Handmade Layers? If not RUN over there now and check it out. I am in LOVE. Music notes, stitching, pennants--it is all wonderful. I got the chance to play with some of the new goodies already and I had such fun. I made this layout:
My parents got Little Dude some jeans for Christmas and I am shocked at how much he LOVES them. Enough to model for me. Enough to want to wear them ALL the time. At around the same time Scott had a pair of jeans he did NOT love and rather than just get rid of them I thought I could use the denim and voila...
I sewed the Blank Pennants right onto the pocket for the title. And sewed back and forth over this 2 Inch Circle Tag:
and then used this 2 Inch Circle Tag for the journaling:
The cute background paper is GCD Studios, the wood veneer star is Studio Calico and the buttons are Basic Grey. I think the Jeans are Old Navy lol and I have PLENTY more denim to play with--any suggestions?
Thanks for stopping by!
:) Rebecca

Love the stitched pennants on the denim pocket!

You can use some of the denim scraps with flower dies if you have any... make some denim flower blooms... that's what I like to do! ;)
