Paper Maniac Blog Hop

Welcome to Christine’s blog on your way through the Magical Mystery Blog Hop from Paper Maniac. If you came here from Dana Grothaus’ blog, your headed the right direction. If you didn’t and want to take the hoppity hop hop, you can begin at the Paper Maniac Store blog!

When I thought of about something I could make based on a Beatles song, I immediately thought of this cute paper from Sassafras Lass’s Sunshine Lollipop that I got at Paper Maniac. If you scroll down for several posts, you’ll know how much I love this paper! And it’s on sale right now for just $1.69 for 24 sheets of double sided 6x6 paper! The felties are from the same Sassafras Lass line.

Have you guest what my song is yet?

Lucy in the Sky with Diamonds

Picture yourself in a boat on a river,
With tangerine trees and marmalade skies
Somebody calls you, you answer quite slowly,
A girl with kaleidoscope eyes.

Cellophane flowers of yellow and green,
Towering over your head.
Look for the girl with the sun in her eyes,
And she's gone.

Lucy in the sky with diamonds,

Follow her down to a bridge by a fountain
Where rocking horse people eat marshmallow pies,
Everyone smiles as you drift past the flowers,
That grow so incredibly high.

Newspaper taxis appear on the shore,
Waiting to take you away.
Climb in the back with your head in the clouds,
And you're gone.

Lucy in the sky with diamonds,

Picture yourself on a train in a station,
With plasticine porters with looking glass ties,
Suddenly someone is there at the turnstile,
The girl with kaleidoscope eyes.
