SJLS #19 Cherish every moment - Thistle Layout

Sassy January Layout Series #19:  Cherish the Moments Layout

Welcome to the 19th segment in a series of 31 that will be shared during the month of January/early February.  

Click here to find out about the Sassy January Layout Series.  

This layout was inspired by a floral float that I had the opportunity to see in Thailand.  It was absolutely beautiful.  I loved the shades of Thistle that were throughout the float.  My pictures turned out truly beautiful and I didn't want to lose the focus of the pictures by an over-busy patterned paper or layout and the polka dot paper was the perfect middle ground.

For this layout, I used a retired color and paper suite and blended it with a current Stamp and Thin Cut set that was designed around our Bring Back My Pack:  Blossom.  I adore this stamp.  The flowers are just precious and definite bonus is having the Thin Cuts to go with them!  Makes life so easy!  


Title details: I really like the white on white effect so I cut out the title and flower images out of White Daisy, stamped them with Thistle ink and then adhered them to the White Daisy cs.


Stamped floral spread left side:  this was so much fun to create!  The flowers are popped up on foam and flat, overlapping and distant!  Love it!

Inter-dispersed are the iridescent sequins from the Silver Loose Sequins.  Once each was adhered, I added a dot of Diamond Stickles to the center of each sequin.  Next, I added little dots of the Stickles directly to the base surrounding the stamped images.  This brings the focal point all together.

So let's talk flip flap possibilities!  First, this was designed for a 6" x 12" photo in the inside of the 6" x 12" Flip Flap on the left page - a great way to showcase a vertical photo.  You could of course substitute with 4" x 6"s or 3" x 3"s or 3" x 4"s.  Then on the right page, it was designed for a 8" x 12" photo on the top of the Flip Flap and underneath with space for smaller pics if desired.  Again, as these are all standard sizes, these could easily be tweaked to fit other standard sizes.  I absolutely love the possibilities!  There are also two 4" x 6" Flip Flaps on the outside of the 6" x 12" Flip Flap (optional).

Check back to see my layout with my pictures early next week.
