Little Ras-skulls

Hey y'all, its Courtney here, and today I am sharing my layout for the #LittleRas-skulls challenge.

This challenge is all about how you are celebrating your "Little's" this month.

I am a very literal scrapbooker, so I had to use a picture of my little's, and use ALL of the little embellishments. The August Kit was perfect for this challenge. Cassie included some amazing tiny embellishments in this kit, and I may have gone a little crazy adding them to my layout.

Everything that I used came from this kit, except for the yellow ruffle under my picture, that was a bag that came in a past swag bag. My kit has been laying on my table for a few weeks just begging me to use it, but I was honestly so scared that I wouldn't do it justice. I have shuffled the papers and embellishments more than a few times, and then pushed everything to the side again. I finally grabbedTide my picture and the background paper, and just decided to not think about things. I honestly coulld not be more happier with the way that it turned out! Its simple, but busy all at the same time.

At first I had just planned on filling a few of the circles, and by the end of it I had them all filled.

Here is a list of everything from the kit that I used:

Blue small and large sequins

Buttons with Flair from Fancy Pants

puffy stickers from Fancy Pants

Triangle stencil

One of a Kind Thickers by Vicki Boutin

Tidepool paper by Heidi Swapp Pineapple Crush

Cut apart from Fancy Pants

I decide to hand draw the crosses, and messy circles. I adore the way that added to the layout.The ruffle was just a swagg bag leftover that I folded over a few times. I think the yellow, black, and blue/teal turned out to be a nice color scheme.

Cant wait to see how you play along!

My Happy- Simple Stories

MY HAPPY! Hey y’all! Courtney here and I am sharing my last layout as a Design Team member. I’m using the collection, Hey Crafty Girl. I found it only fitting to highlight my two Design Team announcements from last year. I knew that I wanted a colorful layout, so I picked the Crafty & Happy paper. Instead of just using it as is I decided to use a cut file from Paper Issues called Just a Few Bumps in the Road, and I cut it in black.i wanted all of the colors to really pop against it. I cut my pattern paper down to fill my cut file in rainbow order. I was super excited to see all of the embellishments that I could use to color block on my layout. I layered my photos on some dot paper and a 4x6 card to match the collection. I went through every embellishment and matched them with their color and chose wanted I wanted to keep on my layout. I also used a 4c6 photo photo flip so I could add my design team pictures. I added some enamel dots from multiple coll

Love You- Simple Stories

LOVE YOU! Hey y’all! Courtney here and today I am sharing my layout that I created using the collection My Valentine. This collection has some amazing vintage images and beautiful colors. I loved using it with a cut file by Paige Evans I cut the cut file out in the Lace Dots paper and then in white as a solid background. Then I cut each letter in various patterns from the 6x8 paper pad and the 12x12 sheets. I added foam to the top portion of my cut file and adhered the patterns to the white cut out to give it some dimension. After I adhered my cut file I added my 4 pictures. They are approximately 2x3’s and I added a white card stock mat to them. Once I was happy with the placement I began to add my embellishments. I used the bits and pieces, My Valentine Card Ephemera, the mini sticker tablet, the 6x12 chipboard, and Combo Sticker sheet. Then, I finished the layout off with my clusters of enamel dots from the So Happy Together collection. Thank You so much

Scary Cute- Simple Stories

SCARY CUTE! Hey y'all! It's Courtney here! Today’s layout is made with the amazing Happy Haunting line. How fun is this line? When I saw it I knew exactly what picture I wanted to use. For this layout, I cut out 2-inch strips that varied in length. After that, I randomly placed them on the background page which is Utterly Spooky. I used a few different pages for the strips. I used both sides of Hocus Pocus, Fright night, Bootiful, and the 2x2 elements. I used some black crate paper, the bat border sticker, and the spooky house border sticker to add some different dimension and texture to my pattern. All of my clusters we're a mixture of the chipboard, the combo sticker sheet, the icon bits, and pieces, and the Happy Haunting journal pieces. I embellished each cluster with the small enamel dot from the Spring Farm House collection. I added a tab, tiny word sticker, and a flower to my photo from the combo sticker sheet. I hope you are inspired to
