I first picked die-cuts from the Odds&Ends and the Chit Chat packs (they are so packed they're my favorites!). Don't hesitate to use large ones and cut them at the edges if necessary and also think about layering them:
Once I have figured out my placements and before adhering them, I applied different washi tapes that complement their colors (from the stripe and scallop assortments plus the new "Playful Posies"). I also created a few "embellishments" by covering cardstock with "Beatle black Swiss dot" washi and punching half circles of different sizes.
I used a few stickers from the 12x12 This & That sheet and some Tropical Punch enamel shapes. In order to bring even more contrast and definition to my bright spread, I decided to outline in black some of the elements:
I finished by using a few alpha stickers (Teensy type in black and swimming pool, Abigail in black), writing a few things planned in different colors, and adding some checklists to fill with to dos during the week.
Is your planner ready for Summer? This spread just makes me want to relax by the side of the pool with a drink! :) I love how happy and colorful the Sweet Summer collection is!
What a fun summery spread!!
