You Can Have Tis or That- Paper Issues


Hey Y'all! Courtney here sharing the layout that I created for the This or That challenge.



This challenge screamed for me to make a July 4th layout when I saw to use red,white, and blue. I have been holding onto the Fourth of July collection from Pebble's that came out last year, and I knew that's what I wanted to use.  
Here's a look at the this or that list to use on this challenge.


 For this layout I used one 12x12 paper and the border sheet. I cut each border piece into a 6 inch long strip and just randomly placed them. I love doing layouts like this when I want to finish off scraps or I want a ton of patterns that aren't to much in your face.

I chose to go with two 3x4 photos that I layered on two different mats, I used some of the pocket cards that I knew I wouldn't use on another layout.

This collection is full of silver, so I went with using it. I added some glitter washi in red,white, and blue along with a tiny word phrase from Tim Holtz. Aren't tiny word stickers the best? I don't usually  journal a lot, so I tend to use them to tell a story.



 My title "hooray" is from an old thickers set that I have been trying to use and I thought it worked out okay. Then I added the subtitle "best fourth ever" in the Florence font from Bella Blvd.
It's what I put on my little guy's shirt for the Holiday. He's the fourth generation for his name, so I thought it was a cute play on words. I know, I'm a dork.


All of the ephemera that I used came from the 6x12 sticker sheet that they had for the line. I finished off the layout with some Heidi Swapp Color Shine for those splatters.

I hope this layout inspires you to play along with this challenge. I can't wait to see what you create!

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...
