Hello, Karen here. I hope you're having a good summer and taking lots of photos to capture those summer memories. Today I'm sharing a layout using photos I took of my son one summer, and once again I've been using the fabulously sunny Simple Stories Boho Sunshine collection.
The words in the cut file were backed with a piece of the Happy Day paper and the sun rays were backed with pieces cut from the Groovy and Smile Big papers.
Behind the sun shape I created a shaker pocket using acetate. I searched my stash for as many yellow sequins as I could find. I didn't find many, so I also punched a few tiny hearts and stars from yellow cardstock to bulk out the shaker pocket.
The backed cut file was then trimmed to 11.5" x 11.5", attached to a bright yellow piece of 12 x 12 cardstock and machine stitched round the edges with white thread.
Using 6 strands of yellow embroidery floss I chainstitched lines between the sun rays. This added more texture to the layout.
I printed two small photos of my youngest son and stuck these onto two tags from the sheet of Tag Elements.
The tags with the photos, and two others, were stuck to the bottom of the layout - two pointing up and two pointing down.
The tags were strung together with white string.
Finally, a few sequins and a smiley face sticker from the Sticker Book were used to embellish the tags .
I hope you like this layout and it has inspired you to scrapbook your summer photos using Boho Sunshine from Simple Stories which can be found here in the shop.
Until next time, Take Care
