LOVE X2

Hello there, it's Allie here today! Today I have two layouts to share, one using the Life in Color Collection and one with the Heart Collection. These collections are both so beautiful and versatile, and they are great for mixing and matching with each other!

For my first layout, I used the Life in Color collection. I love the string-art printed "LOVE" and wanted to use it for my title. There are lots of fun quotes and phrases about living life in this collection, and so I built my layout around the theme of loving life.
 

 

To create this layout, I cut the Happy Little Moments paper at an angle and placed it on the teal watercolor paper. I used a black and white photo to match some of the black and white elements throughout the collection, and placed it in the middle of the layout. I kept adding embellishments and bits and pieces until I could add no more!
 

 
 

One of my favorite parts of this layout are the beautiful butterflies! I used chipboard, wood veneer, and metallic die-cut butterflies.
 

 
Finally, I finished the layout with some splatters of black mist! For my next project, I used the Heart collection. It is a truly lovely collection, and unique in that many elements are specific to a loved one you have lost. It isn't, however, limited to that, and can be used for a variety of themes! I created a layout about my pup and husband using the beautiful love elements.
 
 
I used my Silhouette Cameo to cut out the background for this layout, then backed each opening with a patterned paper. Next, I used a doily to anchor my photo and title. I embellished using the Heart Fundamental Stickers, as well as a few items from Life in Color!
 
 

I love the giant "LOVE" stickers!
 

 
I finished the layout with mist splatters and heart stickers throughout the page. I had so much fun using these collections, and I hope this inspires you! Thank you for joining me today!
