Hi friends! It’s Ashley Neu here for the Paige Evans Design Team to share my next layout! Have you ever been struck by a crafty idea and you just had to try it out before you forgot about it?! That’s what happened with this layout. I was trying to decide what I wanted to make with Paige’s Happy Haven collection and this “wave” concept popped into my head.
One of the things I love about the 12x12 Project Pad is that it comes with coordinating cardstock. After cutting out 7 different colors of the cardstock at 1½” wide, I adhered them to a piece of scrap cardstock. I grabbed a pencil and drew a wavy line towards the top. After cutting along that line, I took those cut off pieces and traced the same design on the bottom half so that it was identical to the top. I adhered this fun wave design onto a piece of white cardstock. Then I added faux stitching with a white gel pen and Washi Tape on the cardstock paper strips. Next, I added my 4 photos flat to the layout. I wanted to mimic the design of the waves so I made sure my photos had that kind of variation in placement. My favorite part of this process came next when I did tone-on-tone embellishing with pieces from the Cardstock Stickers, 12x12 Project Pad, as well as a couple of embellishments from the Journaling Die Cuts. Lastly, I finished the layout with enamel dots from my stash. I just love when I can pull in my stash and it all just matches perfectly! Thank you for stopping by Paige’s blog and have a great day!
