Sweet Smile Layout


Tuesday, June 23, 2020

Hey there! I have a new layout to share today using my Bloom Street collection.
 I started with two pieces of the beautiful floral Paper 02 and went to town fussy cutting out the flowers and leaves from one sheet and then lightly tacking them on top of the same image on the second paper. I just wanted to make sure I didn't lose any and had a reference for where to place them.
 Fussy cutting the flowers took me several hours, probably 8, over the course of 4 days and I cut them all out except the bottom left section of flowers to leave room for a photo. Then I pulled a solid blue paper from the Project Pad to use as the background. I grabbed one fussy cut flower at a time, added lots of tiny foam squares to the back, and adhered it as best as I could in the same spot as it appears on the patterned paper, but on the solid paper.
 Once all of the flowers were pieced onto the solid blue background, I found a photo. Actually, I needed a photo, so I grabbed Jane for an impromptu photoshoot outside. The spring colors go perfectly with these flowers! I printed the photo to 7x4" at home on my Canon Pro-100 printer and then trimmed it in half diagonally to fit the space better and really draw the eye in with the unique shape.
 Along the edge of the photo I created the title with the small alphabet stickers in the 4-Page Sticker Book to say "sweet" and the white "SMILE" from the Puffy Word Stickers. To finish, next to the title I wrote a small caption with a dark blue pen.
 All-in-all this layout took a long time to make, but scrapbooking has been so therapeutic for me over the last few months, I have really enjoyed longer projects so it was worth it to me. I hope you are inspired to pick up my Bloom Street collection and scrap your memories! Thanks for stopping by!
