Fly Getaway / Pinkfresh Studio

Hey there, friends!  Happy Friday...yay!  Today I'm sharing a new layout for Pinkfresh Studio featuring the new Out and About collection.  This is a beautiful travel line, and I couldn't wait to scrap a vacation photo!  I began this layout with an exclusive Pinkfresh Studio cut file that will be released very soon, so keep an eye out for it.  I cut it on white cardstock and did some mixed media work behind it.  I used some gesso, light blue acrylic paint and the Pinkfresh Studio Liquid Watercolors to create a big colorful circle to fit behind the globe.

I did some machine stitching along the globe lines to add some fun detail.  All of the embellishments in this collection are awesome, and I used a mix of circle elements to compliment the globe's shape.  I used Ephemera Die Cuts, Puffy Stickers, Enamel Shapes and Cardstock Stickers to create fun clusters.

The bottom of the cut file has a beautiful set of florals and leaves.  I used the Liquid Watercolors to paint them to match the reds and yellows in the embellishments and papers.  Here I created another cluster to the left of my photo along with some tangled thread for a pop of color and texture.

My photo was the perfect size to tuck inside one of the Stitched Frames.  Those are the best because they are already layered and stitched!

I added a few stickers and an enamel circle sticker above the photo.

I decided to stick with the circle theme here.  I used a circle die cut, sticker and puffy sticker along with this "you are here" piece. I used some yellow and aqua thread for some extra texture.

I really wanted to hand stitch over the globe, but in the end I used my sewing machine with some light blue thread.  I think it gives the page a nice finished look.

I love this pop of red down here at the bottom.  Again, I used the Liquid Watercolors to paint the flower and leaves on the cut file.  I also really love this "wander" frame.  My photo tucked so nicely inside it, and I like that you can see a thin line of the rainbow stripes on the sides.

I hope this inspires you to pull out your travel photos!  This collection is perfect for them.  I enjoyed putting this together.  It was tough to pick what pieces to use first because everything works together so well.
