Welcome to the "Mix and Match Blog Hop" brought to you by the Paper Piecings By Nikki Design Team. This month we wanted to show you how easy it is to mix and match Nikki's amazing piecings and to inspire you to try your hand at it too. Nikki has a lot of new designs for you to try out and perhaps mix with sets you already have.
If you have arrived from Mindy then you are in the right place. If not, you may want to start at the beginning with Mandy: http://lovestoscrap11.blogspot.com/.
For my project I used two different patters from Paper Piecings by Nikki. I used the "A Mothers Love" and the pattern "I love Hoo you Are" set.
You will also notice that I do not add titles to my layouts. I do this because when I create them I have a picture in mind, but because most of my layouts go to my grand daughter, her mom and dad might have other thoughts. Therefore, once the decide what pic(s) they will add, I will a title for them.
I did come up with several titles for this one, but none that were really appropriate for a young lady.
I just love the look on the monkey's faces. I did not do that intentionally, it just kind of happened. Whenever I go to the zoo, one of my favorite displays are the monkey's. I can sit and watch them play for a very long time. The two gorilla's remind of how I always feel when I watch them at the zoo. "Why oh why are you staring at me"?
I hope this inspires you to create your own mix and match project. Next stop is Kimi/Pamela . We hope you will come back on the 15th when the rest of our team shows you their mix and match projects. Until then - Happy Scrapping and Piecing fun!!!

ReplyDeleteKim, this layout is adorable. Good idea to leave the title blank until you know what picture will tell the story.
