Hey! Sharing another layout made with Paige's gorgeous Horizon collection. This time around I mixed in suggestions from 2 different sketches to make the page. I used a Bazzill cardstock in Berry Blush and the circle is Mysterious Teal (it was a leftover piece a a cut file). For mixed media, I used shimmerz in Marigold and Royal Purple.

Love You Tons

Hey! Here's a layout using Paige Evans' "Love you tons", stitch/cut file. I used Bazzill cardstock in Admiral for the cut file, stitched around the letters with white thread, and then backed some of it with scraps of patterned paper from 2 different Echo Park collections. For some mixed media I used Shimmerz in Miner Miner 49er and Colder Than Ice. Here's the process video:  https://youtu.be/uiIBq2IS8Sw

Hey! Sharing another layout featuring Paige Evans' Horizon collection and a cut file by Virginia Walker -  Confessions Of A Paper Addict  from her Etsy shop. It's stunning!! I didn't want to cover it up completely so I only backed the flowers and leaves. Process video:  https://youtu.be/Q7x5WeckcYc

I made two layouts as a gift for my mom for her birthday. This is one of them. I mixed in some of Paige's Whimsical and Shimelle's Box of Crayons to complete this layout. For mixed media, I used Shimmerz in Pink and One Hot Mama, and embellished with some sequins from Spiegelmom Scraps, enamel shapes from Whimsical and flowers from Vicki Boutin's Field Notes collection. The dimensional cupcakes were from my stash and they are quite old (about 4 years).

Fun

Hey there! Love all the colors here! I used mainly Whimsical for my patterned paper and the embellishments come from Shimelle (Box of Crayons), Spiegelmom Scraps (Colorful Burst), and enamel dots from Simple Stories (Enchanted). I made some Mickey balloons with my Cricut and hand-stitched the strings to add texture. I used Shimmerz in Miner, Miner 49er, white acrylic paint, and Heidi Swapp Color Shine in Mustard for some mixed media. Process Video:  https://youtu.be/o9NqdwL4jL0

Best Blooms

Made this one awhile ago and saved for when I was nearly done with Mini Man March. This layout came about while I was tidying up some of the drawers in my craft room. As I was putting things away, the embellishments and bits of patterned paper caught my eye so I set them aside. Once I was done with my tidying up, I looked at them and remembered I had this picture from my honeymoon that I hadn't scrapped yet which went perfect with things I pulled aside! Here's the result: mixed media was done with distress oxides in Picker Raspberry, Candied Apple and Cracked Pistachio; sequins are from SpiegelMom Scraps. Flowers were fussy cut from two different patterned papers and embellishments were from my stash.

Roar Dino Roar

Mini Man March Layout 36 Talk about going dino-crazy! I love dinosaurs and having two boys is a good excuse as any to use them in my layouts. For the background, I used the insides of a cut file (by Virginia Walker) to create masking layers. Then I used the same insides as embellishments as well as the regular ones.

Mini Man March Layout 35 Love it when you use patterned paper in a non-traditional way! Used mainly baby collections (both by Echo Park) to create a boy-themed layout. Added some stars in modeling paste, and some brush strokes and splatters in Heidi Swapp Color Shine in Navy. Sequins are by SpiegelMom Scraps (Total Coolness).
