Bella Blvd Studio Blog: Thanksgiving Week Day 4

Hello there Bella Blvd friends!

Happy Thanksgiving to all our US friends!

Nathalie with you today to share a bit of inspiration using the beautiful Bella Blvd goodies. This week we are documenting Gratitude. I couldn't think of anything that fills my thankful cup than being a mom to my two teen-soon-to-be-adult kids.

I wanted a colorful cascade of hearts for my page, so I reached for the Love You Lots cut-outs to build my layout. I backed one of each of the hearts with vellum, then used foam adhesive to attach it to a piece of Hearts/Ombre White Bella Besties paper. Once the cut out was in place, I fill each of the empty hearts' spaces with the new Bella Blvd Trinkets, so that I have a chain of rainbow hearts.

The new puffy stickers are colorful and small enough to fill the heart spaces and bring a pop of color to the page. I decided to add a few extra stickers to some of the vellum hearts on the left of the page. These help to emphasize the colors in each of the hearts.

I placed my picture to the right of the heart cut-outs. I added a few pieces of papers from the Mom's Life collection as layers behind the pictures, Then decided to create smaller clusters at the corners of the pictures.

I used a few more of the Trinket stickers as well as stickers from the Mom Life, and Mind Your Manners collection. I added a simple title to the bottom of the pictures using the Oyster Florence Alpha stickers. Finally, I added pieces of the Mom Life Doo Hickey edge stickers to frame the page.

Just love how this turned out, and how there is beauty in simplicity,color and texture. I hope this inspires you to pull your Bella Blvd goodies to document your Gratitudes! Remember to share with us your projects, so that we can be inspired by you, too
