Bella Blvd Studio Blog: November Guest Designer

Hello everyone, my name is Eva Pizarro and I am thrilled to be guest designing for Bella Blvd today! I'm 35 years old and live in Santiago, Chile with my husband Marco and my son Lorenzo. I knew scrapbooking in 2007 while I was living in Italy and since then I haven't stopped! I love to be able to create something beautiful and creative everyday! I love playing with colors and paper and having some me time during the day. I also love to keep my family memories and leave a part of myself in my project's journaling. Often my projects tell how I fell, my fears and joys and I love that my future generation are going to be able to get to know me better reading our history.

I love the mix of colors included in Bella Blvd’s collections, looking at the papers from the Oh My Stars! Collection I knew I had to use them for a rainbow look project. I started my layout with a design cut with my cameo and arranged strips of patterned paper on the back.

To embellish I added some stickers and die cuts with a tone on tone technique. The title in black really pops with that colored background

As soon as I opened the Tabbies package from the Alex collection I told myself: “I need to display them on a layout!” The dimension of the tabbies is amazing, thick but still functional to work as a paper clip. I cut different 2 x 2 pieces of patterned paper and arrange them on a grid design

I used black and white photos to match my color scheme and a mix of die cuts, stickers and washi tapes to embellish each square.

For this layout I also played with a particular embellishment: the paper pieces from the Holly Jolly Christmas collection. The designs are super cute and I couldn`t decide which ones to use so I decided to make a tree and use as many as possible!

I cut my pictures on different circle sizes to fit my tree and to make them pop I added them with some 3D dots.

I had so much fun working with Bella Blvd collections! I know you will too! Thank you so much for reading my post and a HUGE thanks to Bella Blvd for having me on the blog today.

Have a great day!
