American Crafts ~ Rainbow Avenue 🌈

Hello! It’s Anna here sharing my final layout using American Crafts Rainbow Avenue. 

You can find the collection in the shop here. 

I’ve picked out lots of the bright colours in this collection for this layout. 

I used a white bazzill cardstock background and then picked up ‘My Rainbow’ which I trimmed into strips and then weaved together on the top left hand side of the layout. 

I tore the edges, making them different lengths. 

I then selected my photos, I wanted to try and squeeze on three to document my birthday, so I used different size pictures to accommodate this. I mounted the photos with ‘Pink Dreams’. 

To fit in with my birthday themed layout, I have also used  ‘Birthday Sparkle’ element stickers by Photoplay. I added the ‘celebrate’ sticker to serve as my title and a few of the words and a candle to tie in with the birthday theme. 

I cut out one of the cut apart pieces from ‘Dreamy Day’ to use as a journalling box. I also used some of the ‘cardstock stickers’ including some florals, hearts and stars. 

Thanks so much for looking! See you later in the month where I’ll be working with Simple Stories Say Cheese Magic.

Echo Park ~ I Love Fall #2 🍂

Hi all, 

It’s Anna back with you today. I have a second layout to share using Echo Park’s I Love Fall collection. 

You can find it in the shop here. 

To create this layout I began by cutting a circle out of Autumn Woods. I kept the inner circle and then selected various patterned papers from the collection as well as coordinating cardstock and cut 1.5inch strips. 

I used the paper strips to do some paper weaving and then stuck it all down on the inner circle. Keeping the lengths of paper, I adhered these strips to the back of Autumn Woods. 

I mounted my photo onto the b side of 4x4 journaling cards and adhered to the lower left side of the circle. 

I fussy cut some flowers from Fall Flowers and created two clusters. Adding to my clusters, I selected some ephemera icons and some element stickers to place alongside. 

To finish, I added some Nuvo Vintage Drops around the edge of the circle. 

Thanks so much for looking! See you next time with something Christmassy!

Anna
