Hi Everyone, it's Kathy with a fun layout I created using the Sweetheart Collection. My husband is constantly saying that future generations will not know I existed by looking at my scrapbooks...so my resolution this year is to "be in the picture!!" This is a selfie my husband and I took last spring on a trip to Key West to celebrate our 20th Anniversary.
I wanted to add some dimension to my layout so I die - cut some hearts from my background paper and backed the open spaces with various papers from the Sweetheart line. I used some foam tape to give the hearts more depth. I then added more hearts on the top layer and popped them up as well.
I LOVE the little typewriter, it's so cute! It was actually the inspiration for my title. I added the little heart sticker with some foam tape for fun!
That's all for today, thanks for stopping by to look!
Big Love Layout
by Melinda Spinks
Hello, it's Melinda here to share a layout I've created using the gorgeous Sweetheart collection for a non Valentine's themed page! I've never really been one to side with convention when it comes to soft and 'pretty' colors on a boys layout, it just takes a bit of balance and the right style of photo.
If I ever had to choose a favourite product (at the moment) it would have to be epoxy dots... I just can't seem to get enough of them and love how they can be sprinkled across a layout to give a hint of color and whimsy. Loving the new washi tape designs in the thinner widths too!
Now you don't need to wait until Valentine's Day to tell someone special you love them. Why not make a non-Valentine's card and surprise your loved one on a random day... just because!

ReplyDeleteOooooo love love love Doodlebug! I've Pin'd it, googled+ it ,FB'd it gonna share it
ReplyDeleteI love the look of kraft against those bright colors- it makes them pop. I think you should do more kraft in your collections.
ReplyDeleteBeautiful layouts!
ReplyDeleteAwwww...These are just wonderful pages of sharing your love with your loved ones...TFS!
ReplyDeleteLove the sweethearts line! The combination of kraft & pinks is amazing! By far the cutest valentine collection I've seen!!
ReplyDeleteThis lovely layout reminds me that I need to make a layout with me and my husband. We have 3 kids and that is always the focus of what I do. It's time we had a turn!
ReplyDeleteHappy Valentine's Day!
I adore melinda's layout, especially the epoxy dots, I love how she combines the kraft and white
ReplyDeleteLove all the designs. February and hearts are my favorite - excited to try some of these ideas. Thank you for the cool ideas. All 4 options have been done.
ReplyDeletePinned and am commenting here - these are gorgeous and what a wonderful new line. I especially love that heart banner on Melinda's layout with the loopy stitching which i will be giving a go really soon. The vellums are perfect. *sigh*!
ReplyDeleteLOVE them all thanks for the opportunity to win such lovely items!

ReplyDeleteI pinned both images!
ReplyDeleteI love both layouts for different reasons. The first one is fun and bright and the colors pop against the kraft, and gives a whimsical feel. I am a big fan of Melinda's wonderful works of art, and really really like the soft dreamy feel of this layout. Really love the intricate work with the jute, trying to figure out how she did it.
ReplyDeleteLove the bright shades of pinks and reds. And that typewriter is so cute! I need to get some of those enamel dots. I've seen a lot of those recently and I really like them. I know what you mean about not being is the pics. I think a lot of us are guilty of that since we snap a lot of the photos :)
ReplyDeleteLove, Love, Love the Expoxy Dots! Would sprinkle them everywhere if I won!!!
ReplyDeleteGorgeous layouts ... Big Love is just a beauty!
ReplyDeleteI love this collection! I can not wait to scrap with it. Thanks for giving me some ides to work with today.
