3 Bugs Chloe and Dawson Meet Marissa and Erik

Most of my fellow CT girls know that I have been a 3 Bugs In A Rug fan for a long time.  I have always loved their products and I have done many 3 Bugs reveals.  LOL!  I was really excited to see a new girl and boy line with their lastest release.  I am very lucky that I have both girl and boy photos to scrap with so I begged Pam for both lines.  I love the bright bold patterns and colors with both the Chloe and Dawson lines.  And the fact that they are double-sided is an extra bonus.  I love how the border stickers and chit chat stickers are textured, very cool! 

3 Bugs In A Rug Chloe line meets my daughter, Marissa…..

Your Smile Tickles My Heart:  The Chloe line is such a sweet girls line, I love the colors and designs.  For my first layout I started with the Chloe Stripe paper and the back side (green dot) of the Bicycle paper for my background.  Then I "framed" out my photo with the Dress-Up paper and thin scalloped borders of the Growing-Up paper.  Next I cut a circle from the Mini-Floral paper for my title letters.  Then I added some Chloe Chit Chat stickers and Chloe Die-Cut Shapes for my date.  To finish up my layout I embellished it with a Prima butterfly, Making Memories dark pink rose ribbon and Zva Creative chocolate pearls.

Cute As A Button:  The bold pattern of the Chloe Borders paper was just perfect to start off my next layout.  I paired it with the Mini-Floral paper, Bloomers paper, a border sticker and a border die-cut.  The green dots side of the Bicycle paper peeks out from the top left corner, I got this idea from a PageMap sketch.  Then I added my title, date on a die-cut shape, a chit chat sticker and some buttons to finish this layout.

Little Miss Sunshine:  I totally loved the design of the Growing-Up paper so I started my last "Chloe" layout with it as my background.  I didn't want to cover the flower design on it so I layered the Mini-Floral paper, the green dots side of the Bicycle paper, a border sticker and my photos at the top.  Then to accent the flowers I traced them with green, blue and pink Stickles.  A pearl "center" finished them up.

3 Bugs In A Rug Dawson line meets my son, Erik……..

Sweet Boy Of Mine:  My favorite pattern paper from the Dawson line is the Stars paper, this is what I used as my background paper on this layout.  Then I layered on Dawson Border paper, Dawson Stripe paper, the orange dot side of the Dino Patch paper, border stickers, chit chat stickers, and border die-cut shapes.  To add something extra to the Stars paper I went back and accented each star with a dot of Firefly Stickles.

Our Silly Boy:  The Hazard cardstock from Bazzill matches the Dawson line perfectly, thanks to ACOT for matching up cardstocks in the shop for us.  I used the navy stars side of the D Is For Dinosaurs paper and cut a 5" circle on my Cricut.  Then I cut a piece from the Dino Patch paper for my title.  Next I cut pieces from the T-Rex and Dawson Stripe paper.  After all of my papers and photo was in place I added some chit chat stickers, border stickers, border die-cut shape, brads and my title.  Then I wrote my journaling on one of the lined die-cut shapes and hand-cut a cute dinosaur form the Dino Party paper.

Blessing From Above:  My last layout features the papers: Dawson Stripe, D Is For Dinosaurs (navy stars side), T-Rex, Stars, and Dino Patch.  Again I hand-cut a couple dinosaurs from the Dino Party paper to use as embellishments.  The Dawson line is really a great line for little boys and I enjoyed working with it.
