Happy weekend! Are you doing any scrapbooking today? I have a layout to share with you featuring the SUPER CUTE ‘Berry Sweet’ 6×8 paper pad from Scrapbook.com. Let’s get started!
DECADE DAYS
My daughter’s 5th-grade teacher devised a fun idea to fill the days during the last week of school. She told the kids that they could dress up in any decade. My daughter chose to utilize our 50s poodle skirt costume for the day. Doesn’t she look cute?!
I selected the pink and black patterned papers from the ‘Berry Sweet’ 6×8 paper pad and cut a series of 2.5″ wide strips to layer together in the background. NOTE: The pink striped paper is slightly larger than 2.5″ so that there would be a pink strip on both edges of the strip.
Next, I matted my photos with the dark pink solid paper from the pad, then added a piece of the A2 Honeycomb Background Die behind for some texture. A die-cut tab adds a pop of blue to this corner of the layout.
I used cardstock scraps from my stash, along with my Silhouette Electronic Die-Cutting machine and an image from LetteringDelights.com (Image Set: Indognito) to create this stylish poodle. I love that the poodle is wearing a necklace just like my daughter!
I also die-cut a speech bubble, then stamped it with a sentiment from the Scrapbook.com ‘Happy Little Sentiments’ stamp set. This set is a great one to have since it works well for both cards AND scrapbook layouts.
I used more Scrapbook.com dies to create the title and flower accents for my page. The title was created using the Bold Basic Letter dies (I reach for this die set ALL the time!). I die-cut two layers of blue cardstock and then stacked them together using the 1/8″ foam strips for lots of dimension.
I love all of the different sizes and shapes of flowers in the Scrapbook.com Sunny Lane Florals dies. There are endless ways you can stack these! I used the smallest daisy flower in white (2 layers), then added a tiny blue flower and dark pink circle flower center. The black leaf branches are also created with the Sunny Lane Floral dies!
A few clear gems scattered around the page adds a bit of shine to finish things off!
Thanks for stopping by today. Have a happy weekend!
