Bella Blvd Studio Blog: Cut Outs Week Day 1

Good day Bella Blvd friends! Have you tried out the amazing Bella Blvd Cut-Outs yet? On this layout I cut apart a couple different ones to create smaller design elements. I also couldn't resist starting this project with the adorable Cooper collection and adding in bit of the Monsters & Friends collection. I had a blast creating this layout... come take a look!

I started out by using only a section of the Pie Charts Cut-Outs. I used the circle template that is included in the pack to help me fussy cut out circles using the Cooper and Monsters & Friends collections. I then cut these circles in half and then backed the cut out with these papers. I made sure that each half circle was titled in different directions to add visual interest to the design.

I then embellished the Cut-Out design with Bella Blvd Felt Pennants and different colors of the corrugated cardboard Heart Hugs. I love all of the texture these two products add to my layout! I also added a couple of the Word Salad phrase stickers. I love that the Monsters & Friends collection has so many great patterned papers that can be included in non-holiday projects!

I used the super cute Aria Puffy Alphabet Stickers on the title. I then used a black Sharpie marker to color the acrylic word 'Family' and added it to the page. Did you notice that I had added it on top of a section of the Faithful Friend Cut-Outs that I had backed with orange patterned paper?! I then added an epoxy heart sticker from the Cooper collection. Yes, fur kids are family too! :)

The Bella Blvd Cut-Outs are certainly a great option if you don't have an electronic die cut machine and want to achieve the cut out design look! They are also great though too for if you just want a precut option or if you don't want to haul your die cut machine to a crop! I
