YOUR SMILE MAKES MY DAY/49 & MARKET

Hello, friends! I'm loving all the new collections by 49 & Market. Seriously, they are amazing! I especially love the Rust & Revs collection. It's perfect for masculine layouts...and even beach layouts!
I used a stencil and polishing plasters to create the stenciled background. I love this stencil! The different polishing plasters look amazing in the background and they match perfectly with this collection.
I used a variety of rub-ons throughout the layout. These rub-ons are absolutely beautiful! The clockwork chipboard is from Brutus Monroe. They add a great deal of dimension to this layout with the enamel dots added to the center.
I layered a variety of embellishments together to frame the photo nicely.


I created the tag using a scrap piece of patterned paper and a metal die. Isn't this the perfect masculine layout? I just love everything about it. This collection is available at A Cherry on Top.

THIS WAS A GREAT DAY/ELLE'S STUDIO

Hello, friends! I finally found some time to scrapbook some memories from June and I also managed to document the 4th of July. It felt good to get some scrappy time in this weekend.

I used a variety of papers, stickers, puffy stickers, and chipboard embellishments from Elle's Studio to create this 6x8 layout. I love how I managed to squeeze three photos on here without making it look too crowded...and I was able to add some fun embellishments, too. :)


 I used photoshop to add journaling to the digital journaling card and printed it out. LOVE Photoshop. It really helps me get my stories down on paper...

I decided to create a pocket page spread for the fourth so I could add a few more pictures. This was fun!
I matted two 4x6 journaling cards together and punched a hole through the page to create a fun insert for the album. Next, I added embellishments and did a little bit of stamping, too.

I'm so happy I decided to re-subscribe to Elle's Studio. Their products make memory keeping simple, and fun! Thanks for visiting today!

ADVENTUROUS LAYOUTS/A CHERRY ON TOP

Hello, friends! Nicole here with a few more travel layout spreads I created using Paige Evan's Adventurous collection. Today, I'm going to share a few fun ways on how I include layers to add dimension and beauty to my layouts to make them unique and fun.

Theres a variety of layers on this layout. If you look closely at the very top and bottom of the layout, you'll notice how I cut the chipboard circle in half to use as a fun cluster pair with the floral stickers. At the top left-side of the layout, I cut out two mini labels from the patterned paper, punched holes through the one tag and added string to make it more fun. I layered two border stickers below the photos and fed some string through the label sticker and stapled the string at each end.
Here is another spread similar in design. However, I decided to play with the large foam sticker alphas. They are so pretty with the gold foil. I glued the puffy sticker ice cream cone puffy sticker to the alpha, added the plane sticker and fussy cut the little buildings from patterned paper to tuck between the letters. Super fun! I used foam stickers to layer a few of the flowers at the top corner of the layout.
I kept this design pretty simple focusing on the photos. I LOVE the floral print and gold foiled sentiment patterned paper...they are so much prettier in person.
Rub-ons make great additions to photos! I added a few throughout this pocket page spread. Can you spot them all? Aren't they beautiful?
I hope you found these pages inspiring. I can't wait to give this to my sister! It came together nicely, and I just love it...even though it is pretty girly for me...lol. Thank you for stopping by today!
