Happy Monday Morning! Davinie here!
For today’s project I decided to do a layout and be inspired by the actual patterns in the Spring Fling Collection. My favorite part about this collection is that tree, but I can’t use that tree on every layout that I create. To do something different, I decided to create my own trees. I am often inspired to make embellishments by the actual patterns in the paper I am using. For example, I might trim out a large flower inspired by the shape of the small flowers on the Flower Beds paper, or create a large bird embellishment inspired by the little birds in the Bird Nest paper. For this layout I decided to make a couple of trees using cardstock for the trunk, and some scraps from the Tree House and Green Lace patterns for the leaves.
I also used the scalloped die cut edge as a border around my layout. I layered it over some cardstock, to add some sturdiness to the finished layout and bring out a bit of the blue in the striped Rain Showers pattern.
My challenge to you as you create your next project is to take a closer look at the patterns you are using, and create your own embellishments.
Have a great week! Can you believe it’s already almost May!?
