Hey crafty pals! I’m so happy to be back on the blog today sharing a scrapbook layout I created with some of my favorite FJ products. I’ve been in love with this floral patterned paper from the Joy kit since we started seeing sneaks of it right before the kit came out. After using it in my December documenting, I knew I wanted to use it on a project again soon.
This layout was a labor of love with all of the fussy cutting, but it was so worth it. I absolutely love the outcome!
I started out by fussy cutting flower clusters from the patterned paper. Since I was working with a large white space and a larger photo, I added a little detail to the white space by placing patterned papers diagonally in the corners.
Then, after backing my photo with a pop of mustard yellow patterned paper, I started layering and clustering the fussy cut flowers around my photo. I layered them behind, between the photo and patterned paper layers, and on top of the photo. By placing flowers in each of these places, I was able to create depth and dimension without bumping any part of my layout up on foam.
Once the flowers were placed around the photo, I added my title and small clusters of embellishments.
I used small puffy shapes, sequins, chipboard shapes, and wood veneer hearts to create embellishment clusters around my photo. Then, finished those clusters off with splatters of gold craft paint.
Like I said at the beginning of this post - this was definitely a lot of work. But seriously y’all, every single time I fussy cut flowers for something like this, I fall absolutely in love with the outcome.
If you’ve been thinking about creating a layout like this, or want to try one after reading this post, I totally and completely recommend it! Then tag your layout with the #FelicityJane hashtag on Instagram so I can see!
I’ll be back later this month for more crafty inspiration. Talk to y’all soon!
