Pretty Layouts with Posh
Hello! It's Jennifer on the blog today and I'm very excited to share two layouts I created with the new Posh collection! Oh my...the colors are GORGEOUS as well as the beautiful platinum foil accents! Posh is one of my favorite collections of the new release and I couldn't wait to dig into it! Simple Stories never ceases to amaze me with how each release is better and better!
For my first layout "Hazel Grace" I wanted to do a sort of grid style for my page. I thought the colors of Posh would be perfect to scrap photos of our new little girl kitten! I started with the lovely "Choose to Shine" paper with its pink background and gold foil dots. I also added strips of "Simply Amazing" and "Live Simply" to my right edge.
I layered three different patterns to create a 4x4 square as well as stickers from the Combo Sticker sheet! I love the navy colored letter stickers! I also incorporated some of the new Totally Chic Washi Tape as well as a lovely gold foil chipboard butterfly!
Another new addition to the collection are the Carpe Diem Posh roller stamps! I will be honest, I am a big hoarder of roller stamps..so I was more than thrilled to see these in the new release! I love adding stamped sentiments along with my journaling or under a photo!
For one of my squares, I used this LOVE gold foil card from the 3x4 Journaling Card Elements! I love the colors! And how cute is the geometric heart sticker (again with gold foil!)?! I also accented with a tag from the Bits and Pieces pack, as well as a flower bouquet from the 6x12 Chipboard. You can spy another piece of the washi tape, too!
For my second layout, Brace Face, I started with a background cut file from Just Nick Studios that I cut out of white card stock. I then used different patterns from Posh to insert into petals of the flowers. It's a great way to use a variety of papers without getting too overwhelming.
I love using the different sized journaling cards to place next to my photo! Here, I used a 3x4 sized card and added my title with the navy letter stickers from the Combo Sticker Sheet. I also layered many little die cuts from the Bits and Pieces pack as well as a cute pink/gold foil chipboard heart!
How beautiful are the Totally Chic Washi Tapes? I added two strips to the side of my photo as they make a wonderful accent! I tend to hoard washi tape too so again I was so excited to see this new addition!
I love creating little clusters of embellishments around my pictures! And with Simple Stories, there is so much to choose from! I again used multiple die cuts from the Bits and Pieces as well as a cute sentiment sticker from the Combo Sticker Sheet.

Thank you for stopping by today! I hope you will go to the Simple Stories Products page and check this collection out in its entirety! I hope you are as excited as I am about Posh as well as the rest of the awesome collections! Have a great day!
