"Smile, You Are Awesome" August 2019 Flavors of the Month Kit from The ScrapRoom kit club

Hi guys and welcome to another share from this month's Flavors of the Month Kit from The ScrapRoom kitclub. The Echo Park, Team Girl collection was super cute and in this page I was able to layer the photos and die cuts to document my girl's first cross country season. 
Products used: Echo Park “Team Girl” + Embellishment kit
Stash items used: Border punch (EK Success); letter stickers (Studio Calico); Circle punch (EK Success); Hole punch (Crop-a-dile)
Notes:
This collection has some fun graphics in it but combining them together was a bit of a challenge. I didn’t have enough “simple” designed papers to go in between the more graphic papers. So to combat that, I used papers that had the least amount of bold design and matted my photos with that, then I placed the pink paper in between the matt and the background text pattern paper, just so that there’s room to breathe in between layers. I added a 3x4 piece of paper and added the punched circle accents to create my own “handmade” paper. 
When I saw the “smile” banner pieces, I knew that I wanted to use it and so it was the inspiration for the rest of the title. I also added some more die cuts and placed them in specific spots to either cover parts of the photo that I didn’t want showing or fill in some empty space in my journaling block. 

Here's the process video for this page....

As well as some close up pictures...





What kind of 'girl' page would you make using this collection?

Till next time,
Grace
