Good Morning, everyone!
This is Melissa with you here this fine summer day and I have a new summer themed project using the My Candy Girl collection.
I decided to go with one of my favorite designs for this layout: the grid based layout! The possibilities are endless with a grid of blocks to create little nests for journaling, embellishments, title, pictures...you name it!
I started with the Bela Besties Hearts and Ombre paper for my background piece and layered a piece of white card stock over that. Then I cut out nine three inch blocks using various pattern papers from the My Candy Girl paper collection.
Once I had all my blocks of paper laid out where I wanted them, I stitched them all down with my sewing machine using diagonal stitching lines across my project. It gave it a "quilted" look. After they were all stitched down, I layered vellum on a few blocks and adhered that down along with another corresponding piece of patter paper in a smaller block size (two and a quarter inched blocks).
I pulled out the My Candy Girl Ephemera pack of die-cuts and used those to embellish a couple of the blocks; I also used the Ciao Chip, Doohickey Stickers, Epoxy Hearts, and Bella Pops. I also used one block for my typed journaling and one block for my title.
I loved how light and summery my project turned out! How are you scrapping your summer moments?
