Hello scrapbooking friends!
After a busy week packed with tons of projects I'm finally getting around to sharing this layout featuring Kerri Bradford Studio cut files that went up on Monday!
I've wanted to scrapbook these photos of my daughter that I had pulled off an old layout eons ago but I was having trouble finding the "right" way to record the memory. Then there was the fact that I had cut up the photos into a bunch of odd shapes and I didn't want to have to go get them reprinted (this was pre-digi days!). After playing around with some color choices from my paper stash I came across the white Dear Lizzy Ruffle Paper in my stash and was inspired to go with a white on white layout with touches of gray to highlight the die cut title from the Kerri Bradford Studio Something To Say Kit and the camera die cut from the KBS Click Kit. Negative strip die cuts also from the KBS Click Kit hid the fact that my photos didn't all start out sized to fit the die cuts plus the photo in the bottom left corner was smaller than the negative opening and by placing that photo and the negative strip off the bottom of the page allowed it to "blend in" with the others! A scattering of beautiful die cut butterflies from Kerri's Design Secrets Class cut from an assortment of vellum and text paper, a sprinkling of gemstones and some white embossed stamping finished up the design.
I am head over heels for the new Kerri Bradford Studio Something To Say Kit. The brush style text titles are the perfect additon for scrapbook pages, project life and more! I cut mine to fit inside the negative strip die cuts and added a stamped sub-title underneath using the Ali Edwards Hearts Stamp Set. By stamping with Versamark and heat embossing with white powder, it gives a "softer" feeling that compliments the rest of the white on white design.
I am still loving the camera cut files from the KBS Click Kit! (You might remember seeing them before on THESE cards). I used all grays, whites and vellum for the camera on this page, adding a stamped stitched border from the SSS Only Have Eyes For You Stamp Set, a stamped trio of 3 small lines for the camera sides from the SSS Tiny Tags Stamp Set and a stamped circle with text from the Ali Edwards Look Here Stamp Set. The stamping really gives the die cut camera a "finished" look that I love!
I finished the page with a bunch of die cut butterflies from Kerri's Design Secrets Class. A sprinkling of gems, pearls, silver and enamel dots in white, clear and gray add a touch of glitz to the design.
Have a great weekend!
