Hello scrappy friends! Here is a new layout I made for Scrapbook & Cards Today with a "mix & match two collections" theme so I chose to mix & match Lovely Lane and Legendary!
I started with a light blue textured cardstock background for a clean slate that wouldn't distract from the colorful patterned papers. Then I chose 11 papers from the Lovely Lane 6x8 Paper Pad and 10 papers from the Legendary 6x8 Paper Pad and used my 2-Inch-Square with Stitching Holes Cut File to cut a 2-inch-square with stitching holes from all 21 of those papers.
I backstitched with a coordinating color of DMC thread through each square - it took about 6 minutes to stitch each square. I placed the squares sideways in a diamond shape across most of the background and left the bottom right corner empty for a place to showcase photos.
After adding two 3x4" photos of Jane on the empty space I topped each stitched square with a small color-coordinating embellishment such as a die cut, layered sticker, puffy sticker, and/or enamel dot. I used a dark green "Scenes from Today" Puffy Sticker from Legendary to make the title under the photos and then wrote journaling with a very dark green pen below.
I absolutely loved mixing & matching Lovely Lane and Legendary patterned papers and embellishments with another one of my favorite things: stitching! Thanks for stopping by!
