Happy Layout | Sheree Forcier

Hello friends!

Today I’m happy to be sharing with you my first project using the stunning Mila Kit. The florals in this kit are just so soft and gorgeous…I knew they would be perfect to use for this layout of my kids and I on Mother’s Day earlier this year!

I started my page by layering some trimmed white cardstock onto a piece of the solid colour yellow paper, then chose the black spotty paper for the background.  After layering the pieces together a stitched border was added using my sewing machine.

For my design I wanted to create a little photo tag that would look like it was hanging from the top of the page.  A simple tag was cut from the yellow patterned paper, some twine tied to the top and it was attached to the page with the pretty heart washi tape.

I added my photo and embellished the tag using the pretty floral die cuts, chevron arrow, label and the ‘happy’ word for my title.  The gold glitter hearts added a touch of sparkle to the page.

My journaling strips were adhered below the tag. 

It was then time to add a little stamping!  Using the Mila Stamp Set I stamped ‘the best part’ at the top left of the tag and the word ‘love’ to the right of the tiny gold glitter heart.

I cut a diagonal yellow striped strip from another patterned paper and adhered it across the bottom of the white cardstock piece then added some stitching and the date to complete the layout.

If you would like to watch my process you can see my video below…

I can’t wait to create more with this pretty kit!  I hope I’ve been able to give you a little inspiration for your next project.

I’ll see you again soon!
