Folding Laundry Scrapbook Page




Here's a layout I recently finished.

I just had to play with a new paper pad I got.  It's the Amy Tangerine Sketchbook 6 by 6 pad.  All the patterned papers in the layout are from it.

I cut the heart out with my Silhouette.  I attached it to the layout with pop dots and used some mini clothes pins on the top.  I just think they are super cute and of course they go with the laundry theme.

The arrow and the title were also cut with my Silhouette.

The pink ribbon is by Offray.

The white area in the bottom left corner is a rub on from Basic Grey.  I didn't know if it would look right on textured cardstock - but it worked beautifully.

The buttons are from the Michael's $ bin and Papertrey Ink.  The little clear pieces are Dew Drops.

I'm really happy with all the fun colors in this layout.  It's one of those photos where I didn't think any particular paper would look just perfect since there's a ton of colors of clothing and it's not the best picture ever.  Even though I'm not crazy about the photo itself I still wanted to tell the story and document it.  I thought the eclectic look here worked well to make it look it's best.

Thanks for stopping by!
