Erica here, and I’m back with another adorable layout featuring the Bella Blvd My Life 365 collection, using primarily the February products. For this 12x12 layout, I wanted to showcase the sweet Valentine spirit with pops of pink, fun embellishments, and two super cute photos of our Red Nose Pitbull, Lola Bean, lounging on her Valentine themed pillows.

I started with a 12x12 white cardstock base, matting it onto a bold pink patterned paper from the Bella Besties collection to give the layout a colorful frame. To add a fun design element, I used a rainbow cut file as the focal design of the page. I backed each of the rainbows with Bella Besties 6x6 patterned paper in varying shades of pink, letting the bright colors pop against the white background. For the photos, I used two snapshots of Loa Bean relaxing with her Valentine pillows. To make them stand out, I matted the photos on Bella Besties 6x6 patterned paper and layered them on additional papers from the My Life 365 collection.

Once the photos were adhered down, I began adding embellishments. I tucked a fun tab die cut at the top of the right photo for extra detail. Then, I created two embellishment clusters one to the left of the photos and another to the right. These clusters feature a mix of die cuts, stickers, and chipboard elements from the My Life 365 collection, along with puffy stickers from the Bella Besties line.

At the bottom of the photos, I created a layered title using two die cuts that spell out “Love You.” Below the title, I added some typed journaling strips to document Lola Beans sweet personality and her love for my camera (or her patience with it!). I used Bella Besties Letter Scramble alpha stickers to spell out “Lola Bean” in the bottom right corner of the layout. To complete the layout, I scattered a few additional embellishments, such as puffy hearts and stickers, around the page.

This layout was so much fun to create! I love how the rainbows and shades of pink from the My Life 365 and Bella Besties collections come together to highlight these adorable photos of Lola Bean. Valentine’s Day layouts aren’t just for people they can be perfect for documenting your furry friends too!
I hope this inspires you to create your own Valentine themed layouts with your pets or loved ones.
