Hello Simple Stories fans!! I'm thrilled to be sharing my layouts with you but sad that this is my last post here.  I've been so lucky to have designed for SS for the past few years. It's been a dream!!  I'm so excited to see the beautiful creations that the new 2016 team will be sharing.

 

Today I'd like to share with you some layouts that I created for the SS booth at CHA.  The first one is titled "Happy 13th Birthday". I used the new Let's Party collection. Isn't it fun & colourful?!

 

 

I used many of the Bits & Pieces to add some interest to my page.  I used some foam squares to adhere them which helps to add dimension to the page. 

 

 

The wording of some of the diecuts and phrases are perfect for both male & females.

 

 

I did some hand journaling on one of the blank diecuts and added some coloured clear photo stickers. I love the coloured ones that they've started coming out with! So fun!

 

 

For the title section I used some of the number die cuts (Pocket Pieces)and added a few more little bits & pieces over top of them.

I created another layout using the Carpe Diem collection called "I love being your Mom".

 

I just love the big white text on the background page.  I'd be happy just framing it and putting it up on the wall!

 

 

 

I love the feathers in this collection and clustered them together in various places on my layout.

 

 

I also added several die cuts & chipboard pieces for visual interest. Layering is always a great way to draw focus to a page.

 

 

I used a fun photo clip on my layout - for no other reason than to look pretty!

 

 

Some stickers, enamel dots, chipboard pieces and clear photo stickers can also be found on my page. These are some of my favourite embellishments!

 

 

Thanks for stopping by!
