Hey friends! Brianna here today and if you know me, you know my favorite season is summer! So of course you can imagine my excitement as soon as I saw the new Summer Fun collection! It's bright and happy and it will be the perfect collection for all of your favorite summer moments. Here's my page:
When I was going through this beautiful collection, I saw the new coordinating Shakers and was immediately inspired to create a shaker element on my layout. So that's exactly what I did! I took the Lily White cardstock from the Cardstock Assortment set and trimmed a 3x10 rectangle out of it. I wanted my shaker element to be a large focal point on my page so I made sure to have it take up a lot of real estate on it. Next, I turned over the cardstock and backed it with the new Catch A Wave Acetate. This acetate is gorgeous and it was the perfect piece to create my shaker window!
I then took some foam tape and adhered it right on top of the acetate and applied it around the entire perimeter of my rectangle. This provided a place for all of the adorable Shakers to go. I carefully poured in a bunch of the Fishies and Bitty Bubbles Shakers and then sealed it with another piece of white cardstock. I flipped it back over to the front to see the shaker itself and I was in LOVE! The fishies, the bitty bubbles and the waves on the acetate just all go together so well!!
Next, I matted my photos using a few papers from the 6x8 Paper Pad and adhered them right on top of my shaker. Not only was my shaker a fun, interactive and focal point on my page, but it also provided a great grounding point for my photos and title. I chose a phrase from the Chit Chat pack for my title and adhered it right next to my photos. This collection has so many bright and bold pieces! I love how my title really pops on this page.
