MADE WITH LOVE HAPPY LAYOUT | with Erica

It is not secret that I LOVE using cut files on my scrapbook layouts. They help me build a page when I need that little bit of creative mojo. One of my favorite types of cut files are center focused. This means the file is meant to go in the center of your layout and makes a bold statement! The Layered Hearts cut file was perfect paired with the Made With Love collection.

 
The 6x6 paper pads are my always one of my favorite products. I love the smaller prints and they are perfect to back cut files. I used a couple pieces of the 6x6 Made With Love paper pad and a couple of the 12x12 pattern papers for the two larger hearts in the cut file.

 
I adhered the cut file directly to a piece of white cardstock that I matted onto some pattern paper from the Made With Love collection. I added some foam adhesive behind three of the hearts in the cut file to give the file some dimension.

 
My photos are printed in black and white and matted on some pretty patterned paper from the Made With Love 6x6 paper pad. I tucked the photos into the hearts and added some pretty floral Bits & Pieces. 

 
The center heart was the perfect spot to add one of the Made With Love chit chat pieces for my title. I created a few embellishments around the around the layout using Made With Love Odds & Ends and stickers. and finished off the layout with some sprinkles around the layout.

 
This collection has the prettiest colors and I love that I was able to use this baking themed collection to document our niece's bridal shower! I hope this inspires you to create with a cut file and to think outside the box when using a themed collection.

LOTS OF LOVE - LOVE YOU LAYOUT | with Brianna

Hey friends! Brianna Lepper back with you today and we are celebrating love all month long! I used the Lots of Love collection to create this fun layout that documented a photo of my son and I. Last week, I checked him out of school early and we went to lunch and did a bit of shopping. We really enjoyed spending some quality time together.

To start, I went through all of the 12x12 patterned papers and pulled out the Lots Of Love, Hugs & Kisses, Happy Mail and Cloud Nine papers. I wanted to find a different way to highlight these pretty papers so I cut them each down to 8x8. I then trimmed a 7x7 piece out from each one so that I was left with four square frames. I layered and arranged them in a fun way and popped them up on foam tape. Before I adhered them down, I took a few Shimmerz sprays and splattered shades of pinks and blues to match the collection.

These patterns are so pretty together! By popping them up on foam tape, you are able to not only have dimension on your page, but you have the opportunity to tuck and layer embellishments into each frame.

Next, I matted my photo using the 6x6 paper pad and for my title, I chose two different phrases from the Chit Chat pack and layered them together. I love the contrast of the red and pink. The 'Love' piece really pops on top of my photo and the font is adorable!

Next, I pulled out a few pieces from the Odds & Ends pack to create my embellishment clusters. The elephant and bear pieces were too cute to not include on my page. I then grabbed some floral bits from the Bits & Pieces pack and tucked them in as well. They add the perfect amount of color to each cluster. And the heart balloons? So cute!

I wanted to include some smaller elements, so I also adhered a few of the Bright Bouquet and Love You More Sprinkles.

For some finishing touches, I sprinkled in the Love You More Sprinkles and added some tangled thread into my clusters.

Here's one last look at my layout. I really love how the large frames turned out! They created a perfect place for my photo and embellishments to sit.

Thank you so much for stopping by today, I hope that I've inspired you in some way! Are you looking for a fun, different way to highlight lots of patterned paper on your projects? You should try making these frames, it's super simple and you can do them in any size. See you next time friends! xo
