Hello friends! Audrey Mutschall here with a new layout featuring Paige’s gorgeous Happy Haven collection. When I saw Paige’s layout using the cross-stitched heart patterned paper from the 12x12 Project Pad, I knew I needed to stitch those hearts too!
I started by cutting a strip of paper with three rows of hearts, poking holes for stitching, and then using embroidery floss to stitch the hearts. When that was completed I used the solid pink cardstock from the 12x12 Project Pad to cut scalloped borders using Paige’s Scalloped Borders cut file. I arranged the scalloped strips on both sides of the heart paper to form a decorative border that draws your eye to the stitched hearts. Next I placed a ripped piece of striped Paper 1 behind the hearts and layered that onto a tiny floral background paper that can also be found in the 12x12 Project Pad. I printed a photo of my daughter taken on her birthday and framed it using one of the Polaroid frames from the Journaling Die Cuts. I layered elements from Paper 12 around my photo and then embellished with lots of flowers from the Floral Die Cuts. I fussy cut buttons from Paper 3 to use on the centers of the flowers, adding a little extra color and dimension to them. I hope this inspires you to check out Paige’s beautiful new Happy Haven collection!
