Color My World- Paper Issues

Hey Y'all, Courtney here! Today I am sharing the layout I created for 
the You Color My World challenge.  


For this colorful layout, I used a photo of my mom, daughter, and myself.
I used the Dream Big by Simple Stories collection for this one.  

Here's a list of supplies I used:
Chasing Rainbows Paper-Dream Big
Be Younique-Dream Big
Be Meowgical-Dream Big 
2x2 elements (background paper)-Dream Big
Bits & Pieces-Dream Big
Cardstock Stickers-Dream Big
White Doily 
Gold Heidi Swapp Color Shine
Black Watercolor for Splatters
Doodlebug So Punny Glitter Sprinkles
Dream Big Cutie Free Cut File


I decided to cut out two different patterns in the shape of triangles and place those on a white sheet of 10x10 cardstock. The triangles were a 6x6 square that I cut in half. I backed the Dream Big cut file that was cut in black with the patterned paper, Chase Rainbows. When I glued the cut file down, I popped the word Big up on pop dots to give it some extra dimension. 


I backed my photo with a few random scraps I had from the collection and stuck a white doily behind that. I didn't pop the photo because I wanted the ephemera cluster to be popped up. I had the cloud cluster, unicorn cluster and house cluster on the layout to begin with. Then I found those adorable word strips from the sticker set and decided to make coordinating clusters. 


I added some doodles around the white space, some glittered sprinkles, and some gold Heidi Shine to polish it off. Between those touches and the extra clusters I felt like it was perfect.  I wanted this layout super girly and full of all the cute things. I definitely feel like I achieved that! 

Thanks for stopping by and I can't wait to see what you create!

You Are Loved- Simple Stories

YOU ARE LOVED! Hey y’all! Courtney here and today I am sharing the layout I created using the So Happy Together collection. This is such a beautiful collection and I wanted to put every single piece in the collection on my layout. I decided to go with a free cut file from Paper Issues so I could use a ton of patterned papers. For backing my cut files I used a variety of pattern papers from the 6x8 paper pad. I love having the smaller prints to use with cut files. I cut my actual cut file on the Happy Heart paper, I am obsessed with anything polka dot and black and white. I cut about an inch ½ inch on each side so I could layer the beautiful Our Story paper behind it. After I filed my cut file, I began laying a ton of ephemera, chipboard and stickers. There is a ton of great images and tiny word phrases. I layered a 4x4 photo that I trimmed down to fit onto the gingham 4x4 card and then I layered it onto the My Family paper. Then I finished my cluster with a w...
