Hello friends! It’s Kelly Daye here with another Cut File Design Team layout using Paige’s fun and colorful Adventurous collection. I’ve wanted a VW van forever, so when I spotted one parked on the beach at The Del in Coronado, I made sure to snap a photo. How perfect was Paige’s cute VW Bus cut file? Naturally, Paige’s Palm Tree cut file was a must too!
I chose pretty aqua and daisy Paper 10 as my background. All-the-pretty-things are built up on white cardstock framed with a scallop I cut from a solid found in the 12x12 Project Pad. Chain stitching all around in pink added more texture and interest. I then popped it up with foam squares to bring it to the forefront. To back the cut files, I’ve used primarily five colors: aqua, pink, yellow, green, and blue from both the 12x12 Project Pad and 12x12 Paper Pad. I mixed the colors of the palm leaves to suggest shadows and light. Think about looking at a lake, it’s not just one shade of blue or green. Jim sits in front of a cute yellow vintage VW, so naturally I had to make mine yellow too. I used sunny Paper 15 with speckled Paper 8 - it’s a fun alternative to plain white. I’ve set some luggage and a camera on the roof from the sticker sheet of the 12x12 Project Pad. I’ve already bought a second one because I’ve used it so much! There’s exclusive papers not found in the rest of the collection, another set of colorful alphabets, and an entire sheet of stickers. Hehe, did you notice my little furry passenger? The fun part for me is adding lots of fun ephemera to help tell my story and create lots of interesting layers. You’ll find it all in the Floral Die Cuts, Enamel Stickers, Mini Puffy Stickers, Rub Ons, Cardstock Stickers, Ephemera Die Cuts, Mini Thickers, and the 8-Page Sticker Book. What are some of your favorite travel destinations? Have fun scrapping your own memories with Paige’s new Adventurous collection! I’m sure there’s one or even two of Paige’s cut files that will work perfectly too!
