Simple Stories - Boho Sunshine - Its Five O'Clock Somewhere

Hello, Karen here with a final layout to share with you using Simple Stories' Boho Sunshine collection. 

For this layout I created a background by layering a 9.5"x9.5" piece of the Be You paper onto a 12"x12" piece of the Be Kind paper with pieces of black and white cardstock layered in between. A strip of the B side of the Be You paper, matted with black cardstock, was placed horizontally on top.

 

Using white thread I then machine stitched along all edges with a straight stitch.

The 4"x6" photo was matted with more of the Be Kind paper and placed on the layout with 3D foam beneath to add dimesion.

I embellished the photo with die cuts from the Floral Bits and Pieces pack and a 'love this'  sticker from the Sticker Book

The title was created by die cutting the word 'Somewhere' from black cardstock on the Silhouette Cameo ...

.... and using a manual die cutting machine to cut the remaining words from black fun foam. The title was added to the left and below the photo.

Using scraps of the Groovy paper (left over from a previous layout)  and white twine I created some bunting which I hung across the page above the photo. The ends of the twine were secured to the back of the layout using tape.

Journaling strips were printed onto white cardstock on the computer and added to the layout.

Finally I scattered a few silver and iridescent sequins around the edges of the layout to add a bit of sparkle.

I hope you have liked the layouts I've shared with you using the Boho Sunshine collection and that I've given you some inspiration for your own scrapbook layouts.

I'll be back again soon and until then, enjoy the rest of the summer.

Take Care
