Paige Evans - Happy Haven #2

Hi everyone, it’s Anna back with you today and I’m sharing my second layout using Paige Evans Happy Haven. You can find the collection in the shop here. 

I wanted to make use of the lovely patterned boarders on paper #2, so I decided to cut out the inner section, just leaving the scalloped edge boarder. I filled the gap with some white bazzill cardstock. 

I had three photos I wanted to include on this layout, I also added in a jounaling card from paper #12.

I mounted my photos on to Paper #3.

I fussy cut some florals from paper #1 and tucked them behind my photos. 

I then added some cardstock stickers around the layout including ‘best day’ under my largest photo. 

Finally I added my title using Doodlebug Alpha stickers and a word and arrows from Vicki Boutin Where to Next, travel notes phrase stickers.

Thanks so much for looking! 

See you next month when I’ll be working with Doodlebug design Butterfly Kisses.

Paige Evans ~ Happy Haven #1

Hi everyone, it’s Anna here. This month I’m working with Paige Evan’s latest and final collection with American Crafts - Happy Haven. You can find most of the collection in the shop here. 

For this layout I knew I wanted to use lots of folded paper windmills to document a trip to a windmill in Holland. I also knew I wanted to keep some of the florals on paper #1 while still using the b side as my base. So I gutted a section out of the middle and then trimmed some white cardstock to go in the centre. 

I made some folded paper windmills using a variety of 5cm and 6cm squares. I used paper #3 and paper #7 to make the windmills and I trimmed some coordinating bazzill cardstock for the ‘stem’. I added an enamel dot in the centre of each to secure and add extra detail. 

I chose a journalling box from paper #12 and adhered it under my photo. Once these were in place, I began to arrange the windmills on the layout. 

I cut out some of the florals from paper #1 and tucked them around the edge of the white cardstock. 

Finally, I selected a few stickers from the cardstock stickers and placed them around my layout. 

Thanks so much for looking! See you later in the month with another layout using this collection.
