Hey there it’s Vicki!  Happy to be here sharing a project I created with one of my all time favorite Simple Stories collections - I AM....  I love this color palette so much and couldn’t wait to dig in and make something.  As I was shuffling through the papers one immediately caught my eye and the design idea started to take shape.

This is the paper…

I AM... 2x2 & 6x8 Elements.  All of those little squares really appealed to me and I thought it would be fun to try to maximize the use of one sheet of paper to create a layout.  Here is what I came up with…

I used two other sheets of paper, some cardstock and a few embellishments to finish off the page.  I love how this one turned out!!!

Take a closer look at the 2x2 squares.  They make perfect pennants!  And the word paper cut into strips creates a little fun.

Don’t you just love the Chipboard frames?!  That little pop of yellow tied the whole page together.

Here is another perspective of the page.

I used my craft knife to cut around the rose so I could slide my photo under it.  This allowed me some freedom with the positioning of the photo.  This picture also shows off the gold foil that is found throughout the I AM... collection.  That gold is another thing I LOVE!!!

Thanks a million for stopping by and letting me share my project with you today!  I hope “I AM...” encourages you to step out from behind the camera lens and get in some of those photos!!!
