Once again I am loving the combination of manufacturers that Noel combined to create these kits, they are so amazing together! It is beautiful and fun and oh so girlie, and I have a few fun girlie pages that I am looking forward to creating, but I also wanted to challenge myself to create a layout that was not so girlie. So that is what I am sharing today.
I used a fairly simple layout for my page, although I always think that the embellishing is what pulls it all together in the end, anyway. While I was waiting for my kit to arrive, I had printed out these photos, one in colour hoping the colour of my sons shirt would coordinate with the peach tones in the kit, and one in black and white just in case it did not. In the end I decided to use both photos even though they are the same shot. I just liked the way they looked together - like an extra dose of happy!
You probably know by now that I love multi font titles, so even though there are two great alpha sets in the kit, I only used one on this page and then I die cut the word "laughter" with my Silhouette. I cut it in two colours not sure which I would prefer on my page, and then decided to stick them both down. I hand printed the words "you inspire" onto the back of a die cut that was just the perfect size and shape to complete my title.
Embellishing is always super fun, especially when you have so many great goodies to play with.
Have you tried these Ranger Enamel Accents yet? I had not, until I created this page, and I can tell you that I love them! Although I did find that as a newbie, I was better at making small and medium shapes than larger ones. I found this You-Tube video here to learn how to use them, in case you want to check it out.
I finished up my page, with some stitching, a date stamp and some white Mr. Huey's mist from my stash. I have always loved the look of white mist on kraft paper.
