Hello! Today's layout is a pretty 12x12 page for my project life album. This is the only picture that was taken the day I met my best friends baby Thea. I always use 12x12 spreads to document either my favourite pictures or the occasions when I was at some kind of event or important day where only one photo was taken.
I used this pretty 12x12 paper from the kaleidoscope pad. It had flashes of pink, purple and teal on it. I absolutely adore the paper in this particular pad. I was also given the cute faun paper from a friend and the teal in that banner really brought out the teal in the background. I felt that all those colours together really pulled on the tones in the picture so I was pretty pleased with the outcome. I used a Becky Higgins project life card from the Fine and Dandy collection to write my journaling on, this is the kind of life event that I thought was worth a few words. The little butterfly is from the Kaiser Craft all that glitters set.
I used some off cuts of paper to die cut a selection of flowers from a sizzix set of die cutters. I decided not to layer them as such but to use them in a row along the base of the picture to add interest. Getting them out of the cutters was such a pain! I was pleased with the finished look (thank goodness, as it took about 35 mins just to get them out!!) I used some sequins to embellish the flowers and also above the photo to add interest, the 'delightful' is from my Amy Tangerine roller phrase stamp, I have now ordered another roller phrase stamp, as I tend to use this one in EVERY spread. The little arrow paperclip is from The Range it came in a set of paperclips for 50p I'd recommend checking out their stationary section as they actually had loads of different shaped paper clips that could be useful for scrapbooking.
