{5 Years} with the "So Sweet" Kits

Happy Monday!  It's Meridy here today.  I have a layout to share with you using the "So Sweet" Daily Diary and paper add kits.  I went back to pictures from 2011 of my 5th Anniversary for this layout.

I started out by picking the patterned paper that I felt matched my photos to best, and started layering it on the page to form the base of the layout.  Next, I used some of the 6x6 patterned papers from the Daily Diary kit to layer underneath the photo cluster. I cut apart a couple of the mini cards that read "You & Me Forever" and "My Heart Belongs to You" to use as embellishments on the layout.

Next, I added a journaling card and my journaling.  Then it was time for a title.  The beautiful gold Thickers make for an easy title and subtitle, so I went with it!  The gold hearts on the Thickers sheet were another easy embellishment to sprinkle around the page.  I also placed some of the typed phrase stickers around the page to add a little more detail. 

I like the little bits and pieces I was able to use, such as washi tape and branding strips from the 6x6 paper pad, they just are just the perfect small accents to add to layouts.  

Thank you for stopping by today!!!

{Sweet Little Baby Face} layout with the "Weekend in Paris" Classic Kit

Hello there!  It's Meridy here and I have another single page layout using the "Weekend in Paris" Classic Kit!  The colors of this month's kit are so soft, just like the soft colors in the photo I choose for this layout.  

I started this layout with 4 triangles I cut from 6x6 squares of my patterned paper.  Once I got them laid out, I decided to add some more patterns with the branding strips on the right hand side of the layout.  I wanted to mimic the vest I'm wearing in the photo, and the cream colored trim in this month's kit was the perfect match!

Next it was time to add my other embellishments, such as a few puffy stickers, cardstock stickers, enamel dots, and vellum phrase stickers.  I tried to use all kinds of patterns and/or colors in order tie everything on this layout together.

Finally, it was time for me to work on the little cluster of embellishments on the upper left hand side of the layout.  I continued using the enamel dots and the puffy stickers to create continuity on my layout.  I also added a tissue paper rose and a flair badge.  

Thank you for stopping by today!  I would love to see what you have created on the Noel Mignon Instagram #NoelMignon.
