LOVE NOTES LAYOUT & HAND EMBROIDERY | with Maryám

Valentine's Day is around the corner and today I am going to share with you how to create a quick layout to document some sweet memories. The other day I was searching through some old photos and I found one that I knew would work perfectly with the Love Notes collection
After I printed out my photo, I went through my box of Love Notes collection and carefully selected some things that coordinated with my photo and the story that I wanted to tell.

For the title of my layout, I decided to try out something different and cut out one of the cards from the Conversation Hearts 12 x 12 double-sided pattern paper. I chose the one that has lots of flowers and leaves and says "love". I put it on my layout but I felt like it needed something else so I added some hand stitching around each one of the letters.
In order to do this, I took my Craft Pick and punched holes around the border of the letters. Next, I took some mint embroidery thread and with the help of a needle added some hand stitching. You can check out the photo above to understand the process a little bit better.
To embellish the page I choose some pieces from the Odds&EndsTM set and adhered them to my layout with foam dots. In addition to that, I also decided to include some stickers and one cute doodle-popsTM typewriter that it is actually called "love story".
To finish my layout, I added some little circles from the roses are red shape sprinklesTM and lined them up under the house die-cut and also under my journaling. 



That is it for today! I hope you guys enjoyed this post and liked the ideas I shared. Also, don’t forget that if you have any questions just leave me a comment or send me an email. I’ll be really happy to help you.

Have a super awesome day!
