For this layout, I decided to create a playful monochromatic layout using the new So Appreciative Stamp Set, Marshmallow Alphabet Die Set, and the Slimline Lots of Dots 6x9 stencil.
To begin, I used the Blending Buddy Brush and stencil to create a fun background filled with polka dots in different shades of green. I used Catherine Pooler's inks in the shades of Daydream, Mardi Gras and Mint To Be. The color combination is absolutely beautiful!
I used the lighter shades first and worked my way up to the darker green. This was a slow process because I wanted to make sure the stencil did not move while blending and I wanted different shades throughout the entire layout.
Then I blended the Daydream ink on another piece of white cardstock and stamped several stars and hearts all over the paper.
Here is a closer look at the stars and hearts. Once I was satisfied with the image, I used the Marshmallow Alphabet Die and my Sizzix to punch out the alphas to use for my title.
I used the border of stars stamp from the So Appreciative Stamp Set. Love the tiny elements in this stamp set! I added the Glass Beach mixed style rhinestones along each side of the layout to make it pop.
I used a foam square to pop the center of the star die. This is part of the Marshmallow Alphabet Die Set.
I splashed some Raven Coloration Spray from Art Anthology to break up the green. Love the font of the alphabet die set. It's such a fun set. I am sure I will be using it a great deal. :)

What do you think about our crazy funny faces? My son and I love to make faces and snap selfies. :) It's what we do.
