Wildflower Paper Crafting Collection Release

I made two scrapbook pages for this release. Lately I have been trying to use my patterned papers more often instead of letting them sit around staying beautiful. For my first layout, I stitched together strips of the 6X6 patterned paper in a sigmoidal arrangement on top of a 12X12 white panel.

Stitching the paper strips made a bunch of ‘pockets.’ I tucked in ephemera into the paper pockets that I made following the lines of the paper strips. Finally I arranged my photo on top with even more ephemera and added page titles. Then I finished the arrangement with some Cosmic Berry Metallic Shimmer Spray Splatters.

The photo I took for this layout only showed part of my face. That’s how I had to sacrifice the photo so that we all fit onto a 2X3 inch photo paper. I used that to my advantage by first sewing strips of ripped 12X12 Wildflower patterned paper to the bottom third of my white 12X12 layout. Then I tucked in all the ephemera pieces from the Pink Posy Ephemera Pack into the pockets like the previous layout.

I always try to preserve as much of the die cut ephemera as I can, so I may have cut pieces here and there and used them throughout the layout so that I can over crowd my page. I added embossed labels to the die cut ephemera to make complete sentences. I finished this page with splatters from Puffy Heart Metallic Shimmer Spray.

Side Note: for both of these layouts I used the Instant Dimension Foam Tape. That stuff is awesome. If I had this tape before, I would have never switched to using large sheets of craft foam. The adhesive is SO strong and the foam is not dense and hard, making it ideal for automated post rollers.
