It's HYBRID day here on the blog! Our talented hybrid gals have created some gorgeous projects JUST for you!

Designer Di Hickman created this very soft, wonder-filled layout using Vera's newest digi kit, Beautiful Day!
Adding an IOD flourish and gem frames to frame the photo, Di filled in the flourish with sparkly Center Kisses. The title is created with a Silhouette Alpha.
Di then added physical elements to complete the layout: Elysee ribbon and a round Center Kisses for the title.

Here's a great tutorial on how to re-create this beautiful hybrid project:
- Open a new document 11x8.5" @ 300dpi, drag and drop the blue floral paper, large flower and green solid from the Beautiful day kit, and the beige solid from Rue 88 kit. Add the heart strip, "C" alpha silhouette, photo and frame onto the layout.
- Change Alpha color to green, add dark brown stroke, repeat step with rest of title.
- Re-size photo to fit the frame
- Duplicate frame, change top layer to dark brown overlay.
- With the green solid paper from Beautiful Day kit under the first frame duplicate, using the marquee tool 'cut out' the inner and outer sections of the frame
- Repeat the above step with the inner section and the large floral paper
- Using the erase tool on the beige solid from Rue 88 kit, erase all but the floral area under the frame stamp.
- Add notepaper and journaling.
- Print layout and allow to dry.
- Carefully cut along notepaper edge and floral edge with a craft knife, then slide ribbon through and secure.
- Embellish with center kisses and hearts.

Designer Melinda Staley created a GREAT gift in a stunning hybrid fashion! These tickets use a Valentine's Kit from Valerie Foster at Primahybrid.com. Melinda erased the Valentine titles to make them usable all year round!
Melinda kindly provided a how-to for us shown step-by-step below! (She removed the "Valentines Day" part of the title by copying and pasting a small part of the left side of the label over the title and then removing specific areas with the eraser brush to show the scroll again while still covering the text. Melinda then added the Fancies Silhouettes to the title coupon.)
The next shot shows the envelope template Melinda created on her own using digital Melody papers.
Melinda added flowers, leaves, letters and gems to finish the very FUN and GORGEOUS project! (supplies listed at end of post.)
