Shine On Layout | Donna Espiritu

Hello, CK friends! Donna here with a new scrapbook layout using the April kit "Full Bloom" featuring Vicki Boutin's Kaleidoscope collection.

I started with LOOK UP paper as my background. I placed my photo over a doily and adhered to the upper left side of the background with foam tape for dimension.

Then, I fussy cut some flowers from FLOWER SHOP paper. I used foam tapes with different thickness to give the fussy cut flowers different heights. I placed this around the photo. From there, I started embellishing with stickers and ephemera.

Curling the edges of some of the ephemera pieces added interesting texture to the layout. I used both liquid adhesive and foam tape to adhere these pieces.

Following the curve of the banner, I created movement by placing the embellishments in a curve. The fussy cut butterflies were placed with movement in mind as well.
I love how everything is colorful, vibrant and simple at the same time. The mixture of black and white elements complemented the colorful elements very well and created an interesting and balanced overall look.

I hope you liked my project today and hope to see you soon again on my next post. Thanks for dropping by and have a crafty weekend!
