Chasing Paper Dreams

Lawn Fawn | June Inspiration Week Part Two

SUPPLIES USED: Lawn Fawn Daphne's Closet Pattern Paper, Lawn Fawn Pink Lemondae Pattern Paper, Lawn Fawn Cardstock Stickers. 
Hello again! This is the second layout I made for the Lawn Fawn Inspiration Week! Today, we were highlighting the absolutley fantastic circle stackable dies that Lawn Fawn now offers. I LOVE circular elements on my layouts and these dies make it SO easy to create custom embellishments, photo mats, etc. 

Make sure to take a look at the Lawn Fawn Blog for all the other projects the other design team members created for this week!! They always blow it out of the water :-)

Have a great Wednesday evening!

Lawn Fawn | Inspiration Week June Part 1

Hello! It's once again time for the Lawn Fawn Inspiration Week! Today we are highlighting the fantastic Quinn's Capital ABC's. This is a great alphabet set that you will reach for over & over again!

I used the alphabet set in some masked stamping on my layout above. I created the triangle cut file with my Silhouette. Once it was cut out, I marked some of the triangles to stamp in and the rest I filled with pattern paper using the Pink Lemonade and Daphne's Closet paper sets. After "filling" in all the triangles, I stitched around each one with my sewing machine. Lastly, I layered a group of vellum & pattern paper and put my photo on top. Some stickers were tucked in around it. I created a pocket off to the right hand side to slip my journaling in. The journaling was some that I wanted to keep private - I love tucking journaling into little pockets like that for privacy. My title was layered above my pictures and I ran my sewing machine across each line of Lawn Fawn Narrators.

Thanks for stopping by! Happy Saturday!

American Crafts | May 2013 Projects

These two layouts were featured on the American Crafts blog earlier this month. I had an assignment to create two layouts with "lots of photos"! I used to never scrap more than 1 photo on a layout, but these days, I'm finding it a lot easier for some reason to scrap 2, 3, or 4 photos on a single project!

Thanks for stopping by and taking a look! Happy Friday!
