Rainbow Love -Paper Issues

Hey y’all! Courtney here and today I am sharing what I created for the Craft the Rainbow Challenge over in the Paper Issues Facebook group. 

Here's a look at my entire layout: 


For this layout, I used the Happiness collection by Cocoa Vanilla. Isn't this collection stunning? The colors scream Spring to me and I cut into as soon as I received it. That almost NEVER happens. I always want to hoard my favorite things and this is definitely a new favorite! 

Anywho, onto the layout. I had two pictures printed out of me in 3x4 and figured I’d use them. I feel like my black shirt really pops against these colors.

I decided to use this line for the Craft the Rainbow challenge for obvious reasons. I mean come on, those colorful butterflies were screaming to be fussy cut, and that's exactly what I did! 


I was going to leave the butterflies spread out all of a sheet of white cardstock. Then I saw the rainbow page and I decided to color block everything. 

Here you can see how I folded up some of the butterflies to add some dimension and then I added the enamel dots in the coordinating 
colors. A few of the butterflies came from the ephemera pack, accessory stickers, and the clear sticker sheet. I also cut the butterflies from the 12x12 paper and the 6x8 paper pad. I left a few with a white border to match the ones from the ephemera pack. I basically used any butterfly that I could. There’s no such thing as to many, right? 


For my photos I matted them each on two different frames from the 12x 12 sheet Frame of Mind. The photo on the left is popped up with foam and the right is just glued straight to the page. I’ve also added a tab, some pink glitter washi, a butterfly, and word stickers. 


I added a little cluster with a flower from the sticker sheet, a butterfly, and a heart enamel. I popped it up on foam along with the heart and the plus sign. The now is straight on the paper. I added flair and gold Heidi Swapp Color Shine to finish it off. 

Don’t forget to #buyallthethings and use the code Courtney to save 20%.

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...
