"No Worries"

I received my "Evening Stroll" kit just the other day & just couldn't wait to dive in!!!  The color scheme is simply gorgeous and there are SO MANY fun goodies to play around with :)  As I was pouring over the contents of the kit, I came across a paper from Basic Grey.  I often find the patterned papers that already have "layered" elements on them to be challenging to use.  However, as soon as I saw this one from the Basic Grey Clippings line I knew I had to find a way to use it!!!

In the close-up below, you will notice the adorable Studio Calico Scraps.  I loved the look of this border tissue and decided I would fold it back & forth and tuck it behind some of the patterned paper to  add a little dimension to my page.

Here you can see a number of the Echo Park chipboard pieces and stickers.  I love layering these type of embellishments around my photo(s).

Is there an intimidating patterned paper in YOUR stash???  Break it out & challenge yourself to step out of your comfort zone and get creating!!!
