This is the first project I completed for my Solo Crop challenge. I dove right in, without even taking much time to reacquaint myself with my stash or my album. In some ways, this was a good thing. I put myself on the clock and just had to GO!! but in other ways, I felt like I was really fumbling around for this first project, so it probably took me longer than it needed to. (It took about an hour.)
The colors in the photos really dictated what I used around the page. The orange in the stroller was so prominent that I needed to use it as an accent color elsewhere, so I added orange tissue paper behind a couple of the photos and orange letter stickers (Glitz Designs) for the tiny title at the bottom.
I pulled out some old Project Life cards (I think both of these are from the Jade Edition) to use as base layers, which helped tie the colors together.
I’m glad I have a stash of print-and-cut labels (using my Cameo 3) on my desk– they are a great way to add short captions to photos in these pocket layouts.
To embellish, I used a combination of Shimelle Sparkle City sticker folder cardstock stickers and stickers from her #stickerbook. I especially liked this “let the sun shine in” sticker (Sparkle City), because we were trying to soak up every bit of warmth from the sun that we could– it was COLD that day!
