Syd The New Puppy

Hello friends! Today I am on the A Flair For Buttons blog sharing this layout of my new puppy Syd.

I designed a circular text cut file with my Silhouette Cameo and cut it out on the yellow polka dot patterned paper.  I backed the design with black cardstock so the title would stand out and then stitched around the circular title with my sewing machine.  I wanted to stay with the circle theme, so I thought flair buttons would be the perfect embellishment for my layout.  I used the Got Dog Flair, the Just Hearts 2 Flair and the Chalkboard Valentine's 2 Flair sets.   

To complete the design, I added some 3D puffy stickers of ladybugs and butterflies from Paper House Productions.  

I used these sets of flair buttons on my layout.

Clayton's 15th Birthday Layout

Hello friends! Happy Tuesday! I wanted to share a layout I created of my son's birthday last year.

I wanted a title that made a statement and popped off the page so I created my own title with my Silhouette Cameo creating the text in a circle and then backing it with solid color papers to make it pop.

I used the Making Waves and Nautical Collection by Fancy Pants Designs for all the papers (except the white card stock) die cuts, tags, bags and stickers.

I added some Heidi Swapp Colorshine in yellow and navy and red to direct the eye around the page.

I love using paper collections for different themes than what they are made for such as this layout which is a birthday layout when the collections are more for summer and the beach.

Thanks for stopping by! Have a great day!
