Hi creative friends and Happy Thanksgiving!
It's Tarrah back with you to share a new scrapbook layout for Thanksgiving Week! I was very lucky to recently go away on a scrapbooking retreat with some girlfriends, we had a blast of course! This photo was taken out at one of our lunches. I printed the photo in black and white and I love how it pops against the gorgeous bright colours in the Home Sweet Home collection I have used for this layout!
I firstly chose the pink ombre paper for my background paper and began building my layout. I placed 2 of the border stickers from the Doohickey Stickers at the very top of my layout. I then cut out a few papers fairly small from the Home Sweet Home collection and adhered them down, bending the edges of them and tearing the edges to add some texture. I decided to cut out the Thankful title cut file title using my Silhouette Cameo machine. I cut out the 'Thank' part of the title in one of the darker blue papers and the 'Ful' part of the title from one of the pink papers. I used foam tape to pop these up from the page.
To make up the rest of the title, I took the Florence alphabet stickers in Bell Pepper and spelt out 'For'. I then took the Friends word from the chipboard icon stickers and placed it down under the Thankful and For titles. I love the mix of fonts and colours in my title. I added lots of the Doohickey Stickers and phrases from the Ephemera Icons pack from the Home Sweet Home collection around my page to help tell the story. I also took some die cut hearts from the Ephemera Icons pack placing these around my photo, I just love all those colours!!
I love to layer things on top of my cut files so I placed a die-cut and a sticker on top of the 'Thank' part of the cut file. On the right of my photo I popped up the pennant that says Friends Are Our Chosen Family with foam tape. I love this saying and it goes perfectly with the theme of my layout! Lastly I placed some of the small hearts from the Puffy Trinket Shapes in a few different colours around my page, I stamped the date stamp and sprinkled some white mist on my layout too.
Thank you so much for stopping by the Bella Blvd blog today! I hope you all have an wonderful blessed Thanksgiving with your family.
Happy creating!
