Insta Love

Hi! Irit here sharing my newest project for the Cut Shoppe! I had lots of fun with this one. Here's the finished page-

Here are the cut files I used-

 I cut both files in white cardstock, and then used mist to add shine.

All the patterned papers and embellishments are from Felicity Jane kits.

I ended up actually covering the cute instax camera, but I love how the title pops above and below the photos!

Thanks for stopping by and make sure you check the Cut Shoppe for these lovely cut files and many many more!

Back to School!

Hello again! This is Sheri and I have a fun back to school layout to share with you. It's hard to believe that summer is ending in most places and the kiddos are heading back to school. Since I don't have school aged children anymore, I had to bug my sister to get back to school photos of my nieces who just returned this past week. I couldn't wait to use the new cut files just released this past week!

 So here is my layout! I used the star circle from the Scribble Scrabbles set for my photo frames. The other elements are from the School Rules set. Isn't that pencil just adorable? I had to use that and of course, had to paint it like a pencil! I'm a sucker for school supplies!

On the Back to School and 2015-2016 cutout, I created an offset cut to use behind the cut outs so they stand out a little better. With that striped paper, it helped ground those cuts a little better. 

Here's a close up of the Scribble Scrabble circles. Aren't they cute? They look almost handdrawn and I love that effect. 

 Oh that pencil! I just love it.

I do have a process video for this layout if you'd like to watch. Here it is:

Thanks so much for stopping by! Can't wait to see what you do with your back to school photos!

Let's Do Summer

Hi guys! Michelle here with you today to share a new layout featuring two fun cut files from The Cut Shoppe-the Let's Do Summer and the super new Scribble Scrabbles cut files! Here's a look at each of them:

Let's Do Summer

Scribble Scrabbles

When I saw the Scribble Scrabbles shapes, my brain instantly thought "layer" and that's is exactly how I used it. I cut it out of a fun, bright red (my fave color right now!) and popped it under the picture to bring the attention straight to this fun pic of my daughter running through the sprinklers!

These cool scribble shapes would also work great to frame a photo. As I was working with the layers and photo, I tried that option and really liked it. In the end though, I popped it underneath the photo because I thought the red overwhelmed the photo a bit. Next time, I think a lighter color or a neutral would work great if I wanted to use them as a frame.

I thought that the Let's Do Summer title was perfect for the story--I mean, keeping cool and playing in the water is essential to surviving the summer heat!

Wishing you a great day !
