Thursday Trends: Burlap

One trend I see popping up everywhere this spring is BURLAP. It is showing up in home decor . . .

And even in fashion.

While I don’t picture myself purchasing an itchy burlap couch or donning a scratchy skirt this season (ouch!), I can still join in the fun by adding a layer or two of burlap in my scrapbooking.

I decided to use a layer of burlap on this page of my husband walking on the beach with our children. The casual texture and dimension it add is perfect for the feeling I was going for on this page.

I used the papers, flipnotes, and punchouts, and Bella Brads from the Bayberry Cottage collection. The letter stickers are the Expressions Ambrose Alphabet in Bayberry (LOVE this color!). The chipboard letters are the Expressions Glitter Alphabet in Limeade. The dotted border stamp is from the Twilight Impressions stamp set. The flower punch (flower center) is by Martha Stewart.

 

The flowers were created by pleating the Teal Artisan tape into a circle and mounting onto a puched carstock circle base.

 

Thanks for coming by today!
