Hey everyone! I'm excited to walk you through my creative process today. Follow along as I create a fun & simple layout:
1. After choosing which paper line I wanted to create with, I laid out three photos to see which one popped off the paper better.
2. After choosing my photo, I grabbed a scrap piece of cardstock to use as a photo mat. The scrap was already cut with a diagonal edge on the bottom, so I worked with that.
3. Knowing that I wanted to create a few paper strips, I reached for the patterned stripe and cut off the area with the color family I was focusing on.
4. Using my paper punch, I created another paper border with a more subtle print.
5. After adhering the paper border strips to my layout, I added stitching for added interest.
6. I added pop-dots to the back of my chosen stickers to add dimension.
7. I added additional stickers including an aditional tree, a photo corner, a border strip and a date sticker.
8. I cut a journaling area from the patterned paper.
9. After tucking my journaling spot under the edge of the photo mat, I placed my title stickers on my centering ruler for placement and then added them to my page.
10. I used my white pen to add additional details to my layout and added an additional sticker to my title.
11. I added my handwritten journaling.
