I had some fun photos of the girls playing in the rain, so I
wanted to do a fun, happy layout. I
decided to use a soft floral paper, and layered that with two complementary
shades of pink and blue.
I cut diamond shapes from 3 different patterned paper, and
folded them over a piece of string to form the bunting.
For the rosettes, cut a thin strip of paper, and scored it
at ¼” intervals, then concertina folded it.
Glue the two ends together and
adhere a button or a circle of patterned paper to the top. If it keeps popping up in the centre, you
might find it handy to glue the rosette to a small circle of scrap paper at the
bottom, as well as with the button on top.
It’s a bit fiddly, but look C....U....T....E!!!
After the fiddly bits were made, the page came together
really quickly. I used a little square
of double sided tape under each pennant to hold the bunting exactly where I
wanted it, and used Kaisercraft letter stickers to add a cute little
title.
Some journaling finishes the layout off, and will serve to embarrass
the girls at a later date to realise they used to drink water from the
downpipes, frogs and all! :D
While not the quickest layout I've ever done, it ticks all the boxes for me. Fun, funky and fresh!
Hope you're having a great week!
