Hello Spring

Scrapbook Layout  - Hello Spring-

The top corner of  the layout.

Hello!

I loved most of the challenges from ScrapbookNerd's online crop, that i tried my hand at most of them.   This project was about creating a layout about spring.  

Lately, I have been working with a lot of Pink Fresh Studio's Felicity collection, since the collection is so springy, I used it to create this layout.

the large title of the layout

I started by using Scrapbook and Cards' "Hello Spring", to create a title; i backed each piece using different papers from Pink Fresh Studio's Felicity collection.  For the background, I used shimmer watercolors to create a  soft palette where the title and picture will show.  I used two pictures for this layout, and i located them as if they were inside a pocket in the title.  

Pictures of my baby and the flowering tree he stops by every day on his walk.

The background mat was cut to fit  12x10 in, and two large strips of one of the papers of the collection was sewn in to fit into a 12x12 layout.  I added a small cluster at the top left corner of the layout and my journal lines below the title.

Here is the final layout:

the completed layout.

I hope you check out the challenges at Scrapbooknerd.com forum or their facebook Friends and family page.

See you soon!
