Happy Memory layout

Hi guys and happy Monday. I'm sharing my latest two page spread today and it's based off of this sketch from the Scrap Much? blog...

I only had four pictures so I used some of the other spots from the sketch to add some embellishments and I did move my journaling on the bottom since I had more room there. These photos are of my little graduation from a school program I did in order for me to get back into college. If you would like more information on it, you can click here

 I love Heidi Swapp's handwriting and I was super stoked when I saw some of her memory planner stuff on sale at Michael's last wee so I grabbed a word sticker sheet and I used one of them in this layout as my title.

I then covered one of the wood shape with pattern paper and then cut out the heart shape then backed it up with the B side of that paper to make the heart stand out even more. I also added some stickle dots on the page for more dimensions.

One of the things I loved about the sketch is the flowers. I haven't used any of my paper flowers in for-ev-er! So I thought it would be a good idea to bust them out for this layout. Bonus, I also got to use some paper leaves from Prima. Do any of you remember those? I added some Basic Grey fabric brads in the center.

 I have been doing a lot of handwritten journaling lately so to mix it up, I pulled out my typewriter and got my words down that way. I love typing them up and then cutting them into strips for added design on my page.

So there you have it. Thanks for stopping by and I hope you all have a fantastic day.

Till next time,
Grace
