Simple Stories & JustNick Team Up - Day 4
Howdy! Layle [1] here with you today. We have a fun week planned for you - a Simple Stories & JustNick Digital Cut Files Team Up!
Both design teams have swapped 'products' and will be sharing on our blogs all week long for some great inspiration! Let me tell you, if you fancy digital cut files then you're in for a treat! Nicole Nowosad, creator of JustNick, is super talented and has a fabulous library [2] of cut files available!
Today creative team member Allie Stewart joins us with two lovely layouts -
[3]For my first layout, I used the JustNick Basketweave Background [4] cut file and The Reset Girl [5] collection!
[3]I cut the Basketweave from white cardstock, and backed each rectangle with green patterns featured thoughout The Reset Girl collection. Next, I sewed vellum over the top so it made the background a little less busy. Starting with a Library Pocket [6] as a layering piece, I placed my photo and layers on the page. I cut flowers from the "Like a Boss [7]" paper, and added them behind the photo.
[8]My title came from another patterned paper [9]: I think fussy cutting is a fantastic way to get more mileage out of your collections! I added a few more embellishments, and the layout was complete!

[13]I backed the Leaf Cluster with patterns from the 6"x6" paper pad [14]. I use up almost all of my 6"x6" pads by backing cut files! Once I had the cut file on my background, I stitched down the middle of the leaves to add interest and secure the cut file to the page. Next, I used bronze Stickles for the dots of the leaves.
[15]I loved the large" FALL" in the chipboard set, and immediately wanted to use it as part of my title. I added the "Hello" chipboard with it to create the full title, which happens to be the name of this collection! To finish the page, I added lots of word stickers and some die-cut leaves.
[16]I was so inspired by the Just Nick files and had so much fun pairing them with Simple Stories products! Thanks for joining me to!
