Hello Simple Stories friends, it’s Becki here to share two scrapbook pages with you that I created with the new Crafty Things collection. Let me start off by saying, this collection is off the charts cute and a MUST HAVE for all crafters! One afternoon, I started out with the intention of creating a single layout with this collection. The next thing I knew, it was 2 ½ hours later and I had TWO finished layouts on my desk. Crafty Things is so much fun to play with!
Let’s talk about the wreath layout first. I LOVE the floral bits in this collection equally as much as I love all the crafting supplies. I knew that I wanted to combine those two things to create a fun wreath layout. I started with the rainbow patterned paper as the background but decided to add a piece of white Color Vibe cardstock in the center of the layout. Honestly, my circle cutter is broken so I used a plate to trace a circle on the white cardstock. After cutting it out, I placed it in the center of the background and surrounded it with flowers and craft supply embellishments.
After finishing this layout, I jumped right in and started on a second layout without giving it a second thought. I HAD to use the cutting mat patterned paper. It’s just too cute to sit in my stash! I made my photo shine on this layout by enhancing it with a few cute patterned papers and embellishments.
I am so happy with each of these layouts! AND I’m even happier about getting a few of my favorite memories from the Simple Stories 2022 retreat onto layouts and into my albums with the Crafty Things collection. I can’t wait to document memories from the 2024 retreat with this collection too! Thank you so much for stopping by the Simple Stories blog. I’ll be back soon with projects using brand NEW Simple Stories collections. Happy crafting, my friends!
