What made me so excited? My very first Lily Bee products! I've been drooling over them for ages and when I learned they were having a DT Call, I decided to give it a try. I've been following Iris Uy's blog (she's an AMAZING scrapbooker, a Lily Bee DT Member and lives here in the Philippines) just to see what she has made of her Lily Bee collections and they're all soooo pretty! Just to show you what I'm rambling about, these are just some of Lily Bee's Collection Kits that I found from Amazon.com. I love buying from Amazon because prices are usually lower and shipping is fast. And being from the Philippines, online shopping gives me more options and convenience.
You'll definitely love them! If you want to be even more inspired, then check out Iris' blog here. Iris is so lucky, she's already gotten the Happily Lost Collection Kit and have already made projects from it.
So anyway, if you look at my past blog posts, you'll see I'm a cards-rather-than-layouts kind of craftie. I've always found it a bit harder to complete LOs. I was always lost at trying to figure out what paper to use or what theme to base the project on. But believe it or not, working with the Lily Bee supplies I bought made everything so easy and fun. Papers are very well-coordinated, they absolutely go well with each other. Even supplies from different collections look amazing together! I just love how my project turned out.
Here's the layout I came up with..
Aren't the papers just gorgeous? They're from two different collections! I added in a few embellies that I found in my stash like the butterfly, the lace and the charms too.
So now I'm crossing my fingers. I'm not going to get my hopes up too high, I know a lot of very, very talented ladies have already applied. But, well, there's nothing wrong with trying right? =)

This is absolutely stunning! I too am a card maker, but long to get into scrap booking. I do a bit here and there, but unfortunately I struggle to find the time and I know what you mean about resources!
