One of the oldest tricks (at least one that pops in my head when I think about magic tricks) is pulling a rabbit out of a hat. I don’t think I’ve ever seen it in person though…it’s usually just a magician pulling flowers out of a hat. Maybe it’s because working with a live animal is too tough or maybe flowers are a more eye catching pop of color. Either way, it’s a classic opening trick for a magic show!

Your challenge today is to create a layout with a white background and to add some texture (to represent a furry white rabbit). Since an all white layout is pretty tough, let’s add some colorful flowers on the page, too!

In my layout, I used a white background, I diecut “stitched” triangles to add some texture, then I added yellow and teal flowers stickers for pops of color. Can’t wait to see what everyone comes up with!

For those of you that know me here, you know I am not a big fan of messy textured pastes and stencils. I used some tan flock as my texture on the bottom of the frame and also the round tag.
