Hey everyone, here is another layout using the Simple
Stories Pet Shoppe collection. For this layout I focused on the spotty paper which
I cut at an angle and placed onto my white background. I layered this with the yellow
striped paper. I always enjoy using patterned papers on my layouts but this can
sometimes be tricky especially is the paper is very busy. I usually combat this
problem by pairing the pattern with some white space, which is what I have done
here!
I chose to use one photo of my little boy with some guinea
pigs which I mounted and placed across the paper layers. I balanced it out with
a guinea pig journaling card ‘it’s guinea be a great day’ and other journaling
layers too.
I’ve used a title from the Foam Stickers ‘life is better
with you, and I added lots of super cute guinea pig embellishments. I also added
other animals, I tucked these into the paper layers, I love how they look like
they are peeking out!
I then embellished the spotty paper. I doodled some circles
around some of the spots, I added Decorative Brads to some, enamel dots to
others and I also added raised heart stickers to some too. This just added an
extra level of details and dimension to this side of the layout and it was fun
to do!
I finished off with my journaling and splatters of white
paint. I really had so much fun creating with the Pet Shoppe collection! I hope
you enjoyed seeing my layout.
Happy scrapping
