Hi Everyone! Lately I have been struggling with my mojo. I have been creating a lot for design team commitments and not enough just for fun. So I decided to just play. I went to the Paper Issues Facebook Group and chose a couple of challenges to play along with. Today I have two layouts to share with you!
The first layout I did not film. I created it using a sketch from Stuck?! Sketches. I chose to pair the sketch with the Free File Friday challenge at Paper Issues. I used the free Magical cut file from the shop. Here's what I made:
I started with a white card stock background. I then dug through my scrap bin and found the rest of the papers I used on this layout. There are papers from Little Yellow Bicycle, Recollections, My Mind's Eye, Pebbles Jen Hadfield, Crate Paper, One Canoe Two, and Amy Tangerine. I chose to go for color and I'm super happy with the results! I finished off my page with some SpiegelMom Scraps The Nice List sequins.
The second layout for today I made a process video for. This one was created for the Paper Issues Scraplift Sunday week 1 Challenge. I used a free Hexagon cut file from the PI shop for this one. I was influenced by Melinda Sweetman on YouTube to use my watercolors to create the background.
I created my own title with my Silhouette portrait using a free generic computer font and one I purchased from the Silhouette store (Ginger Doodle font). I dug deep in the stash and pulled out some buttons, one for each color used. I used some Bella Blvd. enamel hearts and an acetate sheet for the tag. The banner is Crate Paper Cool Kid. Check out the process video for more information!
Thank you for visiting! See you again soon!

I chose to do a fall layout. The photo is my children sitting with their pumpkins as we waited for the wagon to come pick us up from the pumpkin patch. I love the photo and wanted to highlight it. I also fell in love with the background paper. It is from a Recollections pack from Michaels. I think it is gorgeous! So those two elements were what I ended up basing my layout on. I chose to do a smaller grid with different sized squares to allow for more of the background to show. My only regret is that I wish I would have layered the squares a little more. But I really love how this turned out.
