BUTTERFLY KISSES THE GOOD LIFE PAGE | with Brianna

Hey friends! Brianna here today sharing another layout using the Butterfly Kisses collection. While on a mini vacation last week, I was at a nursery with my daughter and she was all about the beautiful flowers and of course, the water fountains. She absolutely loves flowers and will stop to smell each and every bloom. I snapped a photo of her and couldn’t wait to document it with this collection. Here’s my page:

To start, I decided to switch things up and opted for a colored cardstock as my base. I ended up choosing the pink Cupcake cardstock from the coordinating 12x12 Solid Assortment pack and I love how everything on top of it really pops!  Since my photo is of my girl looking at all of the flowers, I thought having a bunch of them on my page would be perfect. I pulled out the Bits and Pieces pack and selected quite a few of them. I arranged them in sort of a crescent shape with my intention of tucking my photo into it. 

I popped a few florals up on foam tape and then tucked the rest into each other. I also made sure to pull a few greenery pieces to tuck into them as well. Next, I matted my photo using one of the 6x8 papers and nestled it into the curve shape of my flowers. It's such a cute design!

From that same Bits and Pieces pack, I pulled out the two banner die cuts and arranged them in the top right corner of my page. I then chose my title from the Chit Chat pack and adhered it in the blank space between the banners and my photo. I absolutely love the fonts in this collection, they're so unique and fun!!!

Next, I wanted to add a few more embellishments so I scattered in a few Puffy Icons stickers like the bees and the blue birds. I also tucked in a few little critters into my florals from the Icons stickers sheet. I thought they went perfectly with this playful page!

Here's one last look at this cute and colorful page that was so easy to put together:

Thanks so much for stopping by today, I hope that I've inspired you in some way! If you have a bunch of floral die cuts, this would be a perfect design to try, especially if you're short on time but still want to sit down and create a page. I'll see you in my next post friends!

BERRY SWEET - BERRY SWEET LAYOUT | with Tya

Hi crafty friends! Tya here, and today I’m excited to share a layout that is as sweet as a summer strawberry! I used the absolutely darling Berry Sweet collection from Doodlebug Design, and it was the perfect match for documenting this cute little moment with my cat, Winnie, out exploring the garden. Let’s take a closer look at the details! 

In the full shot of the layout, you can see how I used a grid of cheerful 2x2 patterned paper squares from the 6x8 paper pad in bold berry prints, ginghams, florals, and stripes to build a colorful background. I added dimension with lots of embellishments from the "All the Things" die cuts, including the adorable strawberry die cuts, flowers, and some puffy dots, hearts, and flowers from the Puffy Stickers scattered throughout. This gave the page a patchwork quilt vibe, perfect for the sweet garden theme.

One of my favorite embellishments from the collection is this pink polka-dot wheelbarrow overflowing with strawberries and flowers! I tucked it next to the photo of Winnie sniffing the strawberry plant, and perched a little bird on top for extra charm. A puffy red flower and yellow flower  die cut finished off this corner beautifully. 

The “berry sweet” title uses a mix of script and playful fonts in rainbow colors, adding a fun pop to the white space on the right. Just below, I included a few lines of journaling. And how sweet is the little mouse friend peeking out over the flower pot? I thought it framed out the title perfectly.

In the top corner, I added a mini cluster with layered hearts, a “Love You” sentiment, which is a sticker from the This and That sticker sheet,  and a soft pop of color from a puffy yellow heart. This small detail helps balance the page while keeping things light and fresh. I did add a few black Nuvo dots here and there on the page around my little clusters - I love the pop of black next to the colorful die cuts.

The highlight, of course, is my curious little kitty, Winnie, captured mid-sniff among the greenery. I love how the warm sunlight and the blossoms of the strawberry plants echo the collection’s theme. She looks totally enchanted, and I couldn’t resist snapping a few shots to preserve this moment.

The top section continues showcasing the patchwork grid with more berry-printed papers and a happy little strawberry face die cut. Notice the strip of colorful diagonal stripe paper strips - they are from the Strawberry Fields 12x12 paper.  I also added a sweet striped sticker tab and another cluster of flowers to tie everything together. It’s the cutest finishing touch!

 I hope this layout makes you smile and maybe sparks a little inspiration for your own berry sweet memories. This collection is bursting with charm and color—it’s perfect for summer scenes, garden stories, or anything that calls for a fresh, fruity vibe! Thanks so much for stopping by today! I hope you feel inspired to pick up the Berry Sweet collection and create something adorable. Happy crafting, friends—see you next time!

BUTTERFLY KISSES HAPPY MEMORIES LAYOUT | with Nathalie

I think we are all crushing over the beautiful Butterfly Kisses collection!  It is such a beautiful combination of color, design, sentiments, and all those lovely butterflies.  It is so perfect to document all sorts of memories; so, today I am using it to create this layout:

I had an idea on how I wanted this page to look, and pretty much it came as I had dreamed it.   A selection of papers -with a twist-, a large photo, butterflies and color.

I started by cutting strips of papers from the 6x8 paper pad, and also the 12x12 papers.  I made sure that I had a combination of pattern and solid in all of them.  Then using a thin straw, I started rolling the ends of the strips -the look is that of papers unrolling from the left to right of the page.   I then attached them to the coordinating cardstock so that they overlapped on the page.

I backed my photo with a paper from the 6x8 paper pad, and adhere it to the left of the paper strips (the unrolled end of them).   I decided to create clusters on the page so that the flow of the layout follows the paper rolls, that meant adding a flowers cluster at the top right corner of  the photo, and at the bottom of the paper rolls.

To finish my layout, I added a combination of stickers, Chit Chat, Odds & Ends, and Puffy Word stickers to create my title.  I had to bring texture and extra movement to the page, so I added some butterflies and hand stitched trails around them to make sure that they pop, too.

I just love how this turned out, and I hope it inspires you to create with the beautiful Butterfly Kisses collection.  XO

BUTTERFLY KISSES THE GOOD LIFE LAYOUT | with Brianna

Hey friends! Brianna here today and I'm so in love with the new Butterfly Kisses collection! I was so inspired while making this new layout and I can't wait to create with it again. Here's my page:

The color palette and all of the adorable icons in this collection deserve all of the heart eyes! I knew right away that I wanted to make a rainbow type layout with the embellishments that would be tone on tone. I used a piece of white cardstock as my base and prepped it with some clear gesso. I then took the Rainbow's End 12x12 patterned paper and tore into it. I planned on adding some mixed media using the striped colors as a guide for each of my colors. I used my Distress Ink pads to watercolor on each color and love how it turned out.

When I received the collection, I took one look at the coordinating Flower Garden Doodle Cuts set and knew that I would find some way to incorporate some of those florals onto a layout. So I took the 12x12 Coordinating Cardstock pack and pulled out the colors that matched that striped paper. I die cut several of the florals using each of the cardstock papers and then to add some interest, I rubbed on some white gelato pen and then drew some highlights using a white gel pen. I adhered them along the torn edge of the striped paper, right where it met the watercolor background.

For my title, I used a few phrases from the Chit Chat pack and adhered them right under my photos. I even included one of the banner pieces from that pack as well. Next, I pulled out the Ladybug Garden Doodle-Pop and adhered it right under my title. I think it was the perfect spot for it!

Next, I continued to embellish tone on tone by pulling some of the butterflies from the Bits & Pieces pack, the 6x12 Icons stickers and the Puffy Icons sheet. I adhered them directly onto the stripes from the Rainbow's End paper. I also added in some of the Hello Again Sprinkles onto those die cut florals and then sprinkled in some tiny hearts from the Puffy Words pack.

Here's one last look at this page. I really love all of the texture and layers on this layout!

Thanks so much for stopping by today, I hope that I've inspired you in some way. I'll see you in my next post friends!
