Hey there, friends! Today I'm sharing a fun and easy page I created for My Scraps and More. The big Summer-long Got Talent Contest is in full swing, and I created this one for a "create a grid" challenge last week. I have tons of these Project Life/Pocket Cards from several collections, and they make it really easy to create a grid.
I pulled out some of the Record It Just Splendid cards from my My Mind's Eye collection and went to work. I picked out the ones I liked and that matched my photos and laid them out. I don't have a sewing machine, so I used a border stamp that looks like stitching. I used lots of embellishments around the photos, and I made my very first pinwheel. I really like how it turned out :)
I adhered my cut file title to transparency paper to make it easier to adhere to the layout. I also used some stickers, brads and drywall tape to add some interest around the picture cluster.
I threw in some paint and stamping, as well...
I know these were all the rage several months ago, but I just never got around to trying it. Turns out, it's really easy...haha! Love the summer feel of it.
Messy thread to add more color and texture...so easy to do :)
This drywall tape is amazing! It's easy to cut and tear, and it holds color well. You could even use it as a mask....that's next on my list :)
You are more than welcome to come jump in at any time during the Summer if you'd like to play along with us! There are weekly challenges as well as a big one at the end. Come check it all out HERE!
Thanks for stopping by, and have a great day!
Love the way you used the cards to create your background Missy, and the colors on this layout are so pretty! Love it!
