Hello Sunshine

Scrapbook Layout -  Hello Sunshine -

Hello!,

 As i am writing this post, there are many collection arriving at my door step, so I have tasked myself to make a dent on my paper stash.  Trust me,  it is not easy, as I love pretty paper, and have lots of it safely kept in Iris containers.  But i knew that I had to work on trying to use up the collections, so I created this layout with a combination of many small pieces of different collections.

I am using the "Fresh Squeezed" cut file from the Cut Shoppe to document a picture of my littles taking a rest while shopping around the local plaza.  They both have drinks on their hands, so the cut-out was perfect  for this project.  I am using a combination of vellum, Simple Stories' Sunshine and Happiness collection, and The Cut Shoppe's Sunny Side up digital collection papers to back the cut out.  I attached it to the white cardstock using foam adhesive squares, so that there is dimension on the page.

I framed the picture with papers from the collection, and added pieces from different collections in clusters around it.

For the title, I used one of the cardstock  paper piece from the Sunshine and Happiness collection.  Once again, I am using foam adhesive to attach it to the cut-out, so that it will stand out in the page.

Finally I added some details around the page, and a few lines of journal to the bottom of the page.

Here is the final layout:

This page is one of my favorites, as it tells the story of my littles on a hot summer day, plus i got to combine different collections in a coherent look.

As always let me know if you have any questions.  Thank you for visiting today.

See you around!!
