Hi creative friends!
It's Tarrah back with you today to share a new scrapbook layout featuring the You Are My Sunshine collection and Bella Besties.
I started by choosing one of the gorgeous Bella Blvd Rainbow cut files from the Silhouette Store and cut each piece out from some of the Bella Besties Freehand Graph and Dot papers.
Once the pieces of the cut file were all cut out I adhered them to recreate the rainbow to a plain piece of white cardstock. I placed them so the dots were showing on the pink one and then alternating with the plaid for the red and so on. As I glued each strip down, I bent up the edges on the top of each of them so I could add some mixed media. I took out some Distress Oxide inks in coordinating colors and lightly painted under the tops of the curves of the sections of rainbow. I also added some splatters in the same colors. I trimmed down the white cardstock and adhered the cardstock to the colorful side of the My Only Sunshine paper, I just love all of the color on this layout!
Once the inks were all dry and the rainbow was in place, I added my photo which is a black and white Snapchat selfie of myself looking slightly up to the sky, the Keep Looking Up There May Be A Rainbow die-cut piece was the perfect piece to add to my page so I placed this directly under my photo. I also added a few Doohickey stickers from the You Are My Sunshine collection here. To the left of my photo there was a space in the main rainbow so I added a die-cut one and then layered some puffy stickers also in rainbows over the top. At the base of the rainbow sections at either end, I added the 2 super cute chipboard clouds. Around the top of the rainbow cut file, I decided to add some of the chipboard dots, spreading them out to create a sense of movement on the page. I also had to add the super cute sun chipboard piece and layered a Doohickey sticker on top too.
Next it was time to add some embellishments, I decided to add them tone on tone, choosing die-cuts, chipboard, puffy stickers, epoxy stickers and Doohickey stickers. I placed the embellishments scattered on the rainbow in their matching or as close to their matching colors. When I attach small embellishments to my pages, I use liquid glue and I will even add extra glue to things that I think might need some extra. The chipboard pieces I usually find will need an extra helping hand.
Lastly I stamped the date stamp of when the photo was taken and I added the black photo corners from the Doohickey sticker sheet to each corner of the layout.
Thanks so much for stopping by the Bella Blvd blog today! I absolutely LOVE how my layout turned out and hope you love it as much as I do!
