I'm so excited to be sharing my very first project with you today.
The Made with Love collection was the perfect collection to start with, since I'm totally in the mood for hearts and sweetness. Take a look at my layout featuring a bit of everything from this amazing collection.
I wanted to showcase my style by creating big hand-stitched embellishments. So I went through the Doodlebug cutfiles and chose the milk bottle and the cookies. I LOVE Doodlebug cutfiles, they're the cutest. I cut out the different pieces using Doodlebug cardstock and then I adhered them together. I hand-stitched around the borders using matching thread.
After doing some mixed media on my background sheet and matting my photo with some scraps of paper, I placed everything on the layout to see how I wanted to display each piece. When I was happy with how it looked, I adhered everything, using liquid glue and foam squares, to create dimension. For the title, I used the Abigail Alphas.
I wanted to have some splashes of milk popping out from the bottle, so I drew some on top of the bottle, but also in other places, to create balance. Then I went through all the embellishments from the collection and chose the pieces I wanted to use. I could spend hours choosing stuff and adding finishing touches... haha :) the cookie die-cuts and enamel sprinkles are to die for. But somehow I was able stop myself at some point.
I hope you like the layout and are inspired to use this adorable collection and to check out the Doodlebug cutfiles. Thank you for stopping by, see you soon.
