In our family everyone loves chocolate, so Easter is one of our favorite holidays. Last year, my little boy was big enough to understand what was happening so for the first time he joined his big sister on the egg hunting!
I love all the patterns in Doodlebug Design collections, they are gorgeous, but some times they might seem too busy to be used as a background... I was determined to use this fabulous patterned paper as background, so I solved the problem by cutting a bit of space using one of the cut files of this collection:
I used the file Easter Bunny #2 to create some space for including my photos and journaling, and of course I used a good amount of embellishments as well from the Odds&Ends and Shape Sprinkles packages. If you're trying this, a good idea is to use the sewing machine (or hand sew) around all the cut shape, this way you make sure the white background is properly adhered to the patterned paper and also it gives a nice effect.
I journaled about the happy memories of these photos and included a big title I cut using my electronic cutting machine and free font Learning Curve.
I am so satisfied about how this layout came out, it displays the gorgeous patterned paper but it does not look overwhelming or too busy. Thank you for stopping by today with us, have a lovely day my Doodlenug friends!
