OVER THE RAINBOW YOU COLOR MY WORLD LAYOUT | With Traci

Hey everyone! Today, I'm sharing a colorful 12x12 layout that's perfect for spring! I was inspired by an older Doodlebug scrapbook page designed by Tonya Prawitt. Scrolling through Pinterest, I saw her layout and knew I had to scraplift the idea of these little Polaroid photos. So cute and you know me, I love a grid and straight lines!

For this project, I chose lots of colorful papers and embellishments from the Over the Rainbow collection. I started by layering two 12x12 prints - Shine Bright (stripes) and Gnome Sweet Gnome (hearts).

Next, I cut 18 rectangles out of white card stock that were 2" x 2.5" to create the Polaroids. I picked out 4 photos that I wanted to use but, you could choose as many as you'd like. I trimmed the photos and lots of pretty pattern papers to 1.75" x 1.75" and adhered them to the white mats.

Now for the really fun part ... embellishing! I used so many goodies from the icon AND mini icon stickers, puffy stickers, sprinkles (rainbow assortment dots and spring garden flowers), and the This & That stickers.

I just love all the details the different stickers add to the page. I layered them using enamel shapes and other pieces. I added foam tape behind some to give them dimension. The butterfly above looks like she's flying!

The flower title originally said Thinking of you. I changed it by covering the words with a green scallop sticker from the this and that sheet, and the You Color My World piece from chit chat. Love how those flower sprinkles shine!
