Hi everyone! Jen here, and I am excited to share a layout with you that was inspired by Summer Fullerton's "Life is Better with a Dog" layout in the Fall 2016 issue of Scrapbook & Cards Today. I decided to challenge myself and create an 8.5×11 layout based on her 12×12 layout.
I started out with an 8.5×11 piece of patterned paper and printed my photo at 8.5 inches wide so it would stretch across the entire page. I also layered up a few more pieces of patterned paper underneath the photo.
After my photo was placed, I started to work on the embellishments. Tip: Using a circle punch, I punched out various circles of patterned paper and used foam adhesive to adhere them to the page. I then embellished with some acetate and puffy stickers, as well as enamel dots.
I used some foam letter stickers for my title, and my typewriter for journaling. Tip: Always be sure to add a date stamp!
Thanks for stopping by today and I hope you have some inspiration to create your own layout. Have a great day!
