With the formalities taken care of, here's a look at my Enjoy The Ride layout,
"Magical"
Sigh! Such a beautiful page for my darling girl!
Magical, indeed!
Other Supplies: White Cardstock & tissue paper.
The Enjoy the Ride collection is really somethin'!
Let's take a closer look...
Sooooooo pretty!
I instantly fell in love with pattern paper, HAZY, and just had to make a feature of it!
I combined it with the B side of paper, BLUSTERY, to form the top section of my design. I distressed both papers to add both texture and interest to my design.
The dark leaves and red spots from pattern paper HAZY encouraged me to use coordinating ephemera pieces from both the Blooming and Bouquet Builder Ephemera sets. I layered these pretty pieces around my sweet photo, creating more texture by bending up the petals and leaves, and foam mounting some of them as well. I love how effectively they frame my photo, and draw attention to my darling girl's picture too!
Speaking of her picture, I layered it onto a base of torn white tissue paper from my stash, and tucked in the magical sentiment beneath it. Both sentiments featured on my page are from the Blooming Ephemera pack.
To balance my design, I trimmed the base of my page with a distressed strip of pattern paper, BLUSTERY, & created a smaller embellishment cluster in the bottom right hand side.
Isn't that butterfly the sweetest?!
For finishing touches, I scattered a few of the Altenew Shades of Purple Enamel Dots around my photo and embellishment clusters.
Simple & Elegant.
Oh so beautiful creating with the new Enjoy the Ride Scrapbook Collection!
I hope my project has inspired you to get creating with this stunning new collection!
