I'm a huge Paige Evans fan, and I've seen her create layouts like this where lots of letters are hand cut to form words or a quote. I decided to let my Cameo do the cutting, and I found this awesome quote on Pinterest. It did take a while to choose my papers and get everything cut, but once it was done, the layout pretty much put itself together.
I used a light teal cardstock as my base, and I went over the majority of it with white gesso first. Once that was dry, I used some of my Shimmerz and Heidi Swapp spray inks to create a watercolor effect. Then I simply arranged all those letters, glued them down and stitched through them. I only had one spot for my photo to go, so it was easy to put it together.
Swoon at these colors! So yummy! I used a variety of Crate Paper and American Crafts papers for this. The little heart stickers are from Simple Stories.
I used a Crate Paper chipboard arrow here and a clear one from an Amy Tan sticker sheet. I didn't want to add to many embellishments since the quote is busy in itself.
I did add a bit of bright pink tangled thread and some cork & wood veneer hearts around the photo and my journaling fit right under it.
One last photo just because of the gorgeous colors and patterns! I highly recommend this alpha set, especially for a fun and unique page like this.
Here's my process video for this layout. I hope you enjoy it!
Thanks for stopping by, and have a great day!
