This Day

Scrapbook Layout created for Vicki Boutin DT  - THIS DAY -

Hi there!

The new Vicki Boutin collection has started shipping to stores around the world.  I am lucky to have received the entire collection a few days ago, and all I am going to say it is gorgeous, colorful and so fun!  Of course, i had to create a page with it as soon as it arrived to share with you all the beauty of this collection.

I started with a gesso foundation page, and then used some warm art crayons to create a watercolor look on the layout's background.

Once it dried,  the stencil brush and the the same crayons were used to create the circle impressions on the background.  The new stencils are so versatile, and so easy to  use to add layers to any page.

Using some black ink, and Vicki's new stamp set, i added details to the background.Once again the stamp was used to add a layer to the background.   The final background is the perfect starting point for the beautiful designs of the new FIELD NOTES collection.

I used the floral paper in the 12x12 paper pad to fussy cut a few of the images, so that i can cluster and layer them around the picture.

The B-sides of the 12x12 paper pad are the glorious complement to the fussy cut florals of this collection!  I used a few of the papers to layer behind the pictures and then set them in place on the page,

Love the new washi tapes included in this collection.  I have added a few pieces from it as bottom layers behind the pictures, and then used the floral images, puffy stickers, watercolor stickers and ephemera to complemet the pictures.

To finish this page, i added a simple title using the new Thickers that are included in this collection.  They are thin and black and perfect for layering!  Here is the final layout:

LOVE LOVE how this turned out!  the colors of the fussy cut images along with the mixed media background are the perfect combination.   Honestly, make sure you check and pick up Vicki's new Field Notes collection, it truly is gorgeous!!!
