Hello Simple Stories fans!  Cari here with you today and I'm excited to share some layouts that I created with the new SN@P! Packs.  They are so easy to work with and help you create a layout in NO TIME!!!  You have everything you need right there in that little package! Makes it so easy to pack up for a crop or weekend of scrapbooking!

 

The first layout that I'd like to share with you is called ENJOY THE LITTLE THINGS.  I used the Happy SN@P! Pack.  Such pretty colours and designs in this collection and they went perfectly with my picture.  

 

 

I know many of us love our coffee and I'm one of those people.  But this time my layout really doesn't have to do with the coffee but rather the sweet packaging it came with!  Yes, I was rather smitten with that adorable little pink sleeve around my cup.  So I used my Silhouette CAMEO to cut out a border similar to the one that was on the coffee sleeve.

 

 

I dug through my stash and used some of the awesome burlap embellishments from the DIY collection (flowers, hearts) and then added some enamel dots to the center of the flowers.

 

 

 

I love the photo stickers and on this layout I really liked the contrast that the black stickers gave to the layout.

 

 

 

The second layout that I'd like to share with you isn't so feminine.  This one is called BROS & BUDS and it's about my 2 amazing boys!  

 

 

For this layout I used the Kraft SN@P! Pack. It's so fun, colourful and quite cheerful!  I kept my design simple so the patterns came through along with my single photo.  I used some photo stickers again in various places on my page as well as some wood veneer embellishments (which I just love!)

 

 

 

The die cuts that come with these collections are great too. Often there's more than 1 colour of a similar design so that makes it easier when you're trying to match things up.
