Tiny Tots 2.0 + Cut Outs Week, Day 2 | Inessa Persekian

Hi friends, Inessa here to share my layout for Tiny Tots 2.0 and Cut Outs Week!

I pulled a photo of my daughter from the archive and went to town with all of the pink shades, florals, hearts and baby animals. 

I started with a base using the Play Date paper and used the graphic paper side. For the cut-out, I backed it with several papers including: Sidekick (floral side), 123s, Borders (backside), Love You A Ton, Grey Scallop from Plaids and Dotty, Bella Besties Graph & Dots in Cotton Candy. I used my foam tape to pop up the title diagonally on the page.

I then fussy cut the zebra and piggie from the Border strips paper and popped them up so they look like they are coming out of the letter 'e' and behind the 's'. I added a banner just below it from the Ephemera Icons pack.

I matted my photo on white textured cardstock as well as the Bella Besties Graph & Dots in the darker shade of pink, called Peeps. 

To build out the floral clusters, I pulled most of the pink flowers, yellows and blue from the Ephemera Icons pack, Doohickey sticker sheet, Ciao Chip and Puffy Stickers. I also used the notepad, frame, rainbow and rectangle title from the ephemera pack. From my stash, I used some precut pink shimmer flowers as a base for the floral clusters. 

The layout was finished off with hearts and dots epoxy stickers and some spools of pink thread. 

I love playing with layers and textures and adore this layout. Hope I've inspired you to create! See you back on the blog soon!

Tiny Tots 2.0 + Cut Outs Week, Day 1 | Sarah

Hello, Bella friends! Hope your weekend was swell and you're off to a great Monday! It's me Sarah (@redoaklines) back on the blog, and I'm excited to be sharing another layout that I created using the oh-so-cute Tiny Tots 2.0 coupled with the signature Bella Cut-Outs.

Here's a simple and colorful layout that I created:

I'm in love with these Bella Cut-Outs! They're a quick and easy alternative to fussy cutting or even to using a die cutting machine. Honestly, all you have to do is add paper behind the Cut Out and viola! It's as simple as that. With all of the bright and cheery patterned papers from this new Tiny Tots 2.0 collection, it's perfection.

In addition to the pattered papers, I used photos behind my Cut-Out. I thought it would be a cute way to frame and display these photos from when my girls were toddlers. I love how it turned out!

If you look closely, did you happen to notice the black doodling I added to the letters? This is an easy and fun way to dress up those Bella Cut-Outs. I love that it makes it stand out from the white background too.

To embellish my "Adorbs" title, I added some Doohickey stickers and Ciao Chips to give it a nice, finished look.

Lastly, I like to add a date/year to my layouts, so I can look back and remember when my photos were taken. Here, I used some of the numbers from the Tiny Tots 2.0 Doohickey sticker sheet. I love that each Bella collection has letters/numbers on the Doohickey sheet that coordinate with the collection. It makes color matching so easy!

Okay, that's all I have for today! I hope that I've inspired you in some way today. If you haven't already, I hope you get a chance to try out these Cut Outs. I'm a huge fan because they're so cute and easy to use. If you create something using Bella products, we'd love to see it. Tag us on social media with #bellablvd or #bellablvdllc. 

Until next time,

Sarah.

Tiny Tots 2.0 Collection + Bella Besties Week, Day 6| Brianna Lepper

Hey y'all!  Brianna Lepper here today sharing a new layout using the super adorable Tiny Tots 2.0 collection.  I'm currently obsessed with triangles and thought it would be fun to create large ones as main elements on my page.  

To start, I traced and cut out triangles using the Plaids and Dotty paper in Bell Pepper as well as the Graph & Dot paper in Ice.  I ran each one through my sewing machine using the opposite color of thread for my stitching.  So for the Bell Pepper papers, I used blue thread and for the Ice papers, I used yellow thread.  I popped them all up on foam tape and adhered them to a piece of white cardstock that I trimmed down to 11x11.  I adhered that piece to the top of the Be Brave 12x12 patterned paper and ran that through my sewing machine.  

I used the four triangles as placements for my title, photo and embellishments.  I made my title using the Aria Alphas in White and the Wonky Alphas in Bell Pepper.  My photo is of my oldest son Noah, while he was taking a bath in his old blow up rubber ducky bathtub.  It was the cutest thing and this photo was perfect to use with this collection.  He was almost two in this photo and I can't believe how quickly time flies by!  He's going to be sixteen in August!

I matted my photo using a few other patterned papers and adhered it down to the triangle on the far right.  I added the cute rubber ducky Trinket Puffy sticker as well as some Ephemera icons that look like bubbles. 

A yellow Cute Clip was the perfect addition to my photo and added that nice pop of color.

I had so much fun embellishing using more Ephemera Icons and Words and Ciao Chip Chipboard stickers.

Here's one last photo of my page: 

Thank you so much for stopping by today, I hope that I've inspired you in some way!  Have you incorporated triangles into your pages?  They're fun to create with and make great spots for your embellishments and photos.  See you in my next post friends!

Brianna

Tiny Tots + Bella Besties Week Day 4 | Karlla Dauer

Hello Bella Friends.

Karlla here, and I'm so happy to share a new layout with you.

"Bella Besties" makes me so happy. I love the color of this line. for these projects I chose to work with monochrome. highlighting the pink tones "Tiny Tots 2.0 + Bella Besties".

For the background of the project, I mixed the pink papers "Bella Besties" with the "Play Date". I love to rip the edges of the papers and lift them up to give that detail. I just did it in one corner and worked on it.

I love frames. I chose to use the beautiful frames you find on "Ephemera" for my photos. I thought it super fun.

On the diagonal of the photos, I created arrangements with the beautiful embellishments from the "Tiny Tots 2.0" collection. A mix of ephemera, Play Time Puffy Stickers and chipboard. I also used "Puffy Stickers - White Trinkets". I love these accessories. I use many layers of foam tape to add dimension to the elements I want to highlight.

finally, "Borders Paper" helped me with the title of the layout. I loved this coloring and the seam holding the strap.

Hope I have inspired you. Thanks for stopping by today and playing with me.

See you soon.

Xx Karlla.

Tiny Tots + Bella Besties Week, Day 3 | Virginia

Happy Wednesday, today I'm sharing a few slim-line cards I created with the fun Tiny Tots 2.0 collection. Even though I don't have 'tiny tots' on my most recent camera feed, that doesn't stop me from thinking of all kinds of ideas for this adorable line. As the cardmaker in my family I always have a stash of birthday cards on hand and the cute Tiny Tots 2.0 cute animals and phrases are perfect for any birthday occasion (young and wise).

On both cards I used the numbered patterned paper for the birthday 'age' idea. I like that the numbers are multi-colored to coordinate beautifully with the ephemera and other papers so you have the option to go with any color way for your cards. 

Love the Bella Besties hearts/ombre papers! I used the green ombre paper (circle punched and dry embossed) to highlight the embellishment grouping on the Roarsome card and the yellow ombre paper was used as the backdrop for the Dino-mite card. 

Thanks for dropping by, have a wonderful day!

 

Supplies Used:

Tiny Tots 2.0 patterned papers, chipboard, ephemera, epoxy shapes

Tiny Tots 2.0 & Bella Besties Day 2 | Laura Alberts

Hello friends! Laura Alberts here again with another fun layout using the new Tiny Tots 2.0 collection. This time, I'm scrapping my darling girls playing in their wading pool. Here in the southern USA, our summers are hot and long, so we have to find creative ways to cool off!

I just had to use this gorgeous Cut-Outs from the Adorbs set for these playful photos. I backed it with the beautiful Sidekick patterned paper to get a rainbow of colors in my title. I layered this Cut-Out on the Bella Besties Hearts & Ombre Gulf paper. This really makes the title pop!

I loved creating these little scenes on either side of my photos! On the left side, I layered ephemera icons like the rainbow and boat, while on the right side, I mixed a rubber duck with fish and waves! The small Playtime puffy stickers were the perfect accents to these clusters.

I really love this cluster of ephemera icon hearts with a banner across them under the title! It's such a fun cluster. On the bottom of my page, I pulled in a border sticker from the Tiny Tots 2.0 Doohickey set. 

As a finishing touch, I added Nuvo drops and gold ink spray to give the layout a splashy accent! It really helps capture the playful mood of these photos.

I hope this layout inspires you to incorporate these fantastic Cut-Out titles in your layout! Such a fun way to get a big title on the page.
