Basic layout using stickers

 This layout was a very simple layout to do, using 4 photos, stickers and a bit of color in the ribbon and buttons!   Simple to recreate using any type of themed stickers and photos that match! 

In this layout, I wanted to showcase the photos more than the embellishments I used.  The colors were girlish, more to match the stickers, than anything in the photos. 

If you look at the flowers, I used buttons in the middle of the flowers, this is especially good if you have a certain color in the sticker that might clash with what you are doing. 

I am all for handwritten journaling on your pages instead of computer generated.  Yes, computer generated might "look" better, but you want to have some of your pages have your own words, your own handwriting on them.  This way, future generations can see how you wrote, and what you had to say, instead of reading something from the computer. 

I also added a few stickers that were sayings, instead of putting together a traditional title.  I added one underneath one of the cute photos on side 2, and the main title is in the tag on the top layout.  This way, you can find the perfect title from different stickers for your title! 


Stickers come in handy for a variety of reasons.  They help to make a layout look neat, plus they can be used easily.  Using a bit of ribbon, just adds to the girlishness of the layout! 

Supply list: 

2 sheets cardstock for the background

Cardstock to matt the stickers and photos

Stickers that match

Ribbon

Buttons

Black marker for the hand written journaling

Step one:  Matt photos to match the stickers and background paper you have chosen. 

Step two:  Start to matt the stickers in the same way.

Step three:  Pick out the saying stickers you would like to use for the title and under one of the photos.  Start to place those. 

Step four:  Picking out 2 of the special photos you want to showcase, make a frame using cardstock and a few of the stickers, to make these photos stand out a bit. 

Step five:  Pick out one of the saying stickers to place under one of the other photos.

Step six:  Place adhesive on all the photos and stickers and place on the background paper.

Step seven:  Taking the ribbon, make bows in different colors of ribbon to match the cardstock and stickers.  Using hot glue, place the ribbon on the layout. 

Step eight:  Using the same hot glue gun, place buttons on the layout in the stickers where you need to.  (This step is optional if you do not have any buttons on the stickers.)

Very basic, easy layout you can recreate using any theme!  As with any of your layouts, please give me credit if you recreate...and share your creation with me!
