Hello and Happy Friday!

This photo just begged for some punched clouds out of the awesome Simple Stories papers!


I kept this layout kind of simple, I wanted the punched clouds to be the embellishment focal point.


Have a happy weekend!

Gossamer Blue | Super Happy

This kid.  When she is excited she smiles as big as her little face will allow.


The Simple Stories cut apart sheet from July Gossamer Blue kits was the inspiration for this Main Kit only layout.  I used several circle punches on the paper to use as embellishments on this page.


I also covered a piece of cardstock with the Fancy Pants washi to get some smaller circles for this layout.  That's one of my favorite ways to washi :)


A bit of gesso and Shimmerz on the background paper behind my photo and embellishments, just to break up the all the action on the background.  I added a few die cuts and enamel dots to complete my layout.

Be super happy!

I made this layout using a cut file from JustNick Studio, treating the die cut as a stencil for my Shimmerz paints.


I prepped the background with gesso, laid the Rosette Background file on the prepared paper and painted right over the top.


This flair badge was the inspiration for my colors.


I think it turned out quite pretty :)


I used products from Fancy Pants Life is Beautiful collection.  I'm so pleased with the outcome.

Happy Tuesday!

I've been on a huge Silhouette kick lately; I've found that cut files really inspire some of my pages and also make creating a much smoother process.  This page uses that fab gold foil paper in the Gossamer Blue July Main Add-on Kit and a cut file from The Cut Shoppe.


I selected only part of the cut file in Silhouette studio, then cut if from the Fancy Pants Millie and June paper.  I cut a large piece of the gold foil paper and backed the hearts.  Boom!  Background complete.


A few more Millie and June papers from the kits as layers, along with pretty puffy stickers and a flair badge and this layout was done.


Easy-peasy!

Happy Independence Day to all my U.S. friends!!!

I will never tire of butterflies on my layouts.  Never.


I used a lovely butterfly cut file from The Cut Shoppe as the inspiration for my page.  I cut it twice to give the butterflies some dimension.  Can you see the Fancy Pants paper peeking out from behind?


Using Gossamer Blue July scrapbook kits made this layout come together super quick!


While I love pages with tons of embellishing, sometimes it's the simple ones that speak the loudest.

Have a happy weekend,
Jill

YES!!!!  You will find my work on the PLS Blog starting July 14th, and I couldn't be more excited to work with these beautiful products.  I love the fresh vintage style of the collections and products that are so unique:  patterned vellum sheets and papers, die cuts and stickers, and just so much loveliness you won't even believe it ;)

HOORAY!
