Hey everyone, this is Niki (@nikiclairecreates) and I'm here today with two layouts to share. Have you seen the adorable Fur Baby Dog collection? It’s perfect for documenting our four-legged friends, and in this layout, I had so much fun using the playful speech bubble paper filled with cute doggie words!
To create the design, I tore a large section of the speech bubble paper for the top of my layout and layered it with the contrasting pattern on the reverse side. The solid green background with white paw prints balanced the busier elements, while curling up the edges of both layers added a touch of texture and dimension.
For my photo, I used a 6x4 print and mounted it onto an orange pattern from the 6x8 paper pad, a great way to add another pop of colour! My title, “Paws & enjoy the little things”, came from the Foam Stickers set, and I absolutely love the mix of colours in the lettering!
To add extra dimension, I fussy-cut some of the speech bubbles from my leftover paper and popped them up on foam pads to align with the existing ones. This little detail really makes them stand out!
I then embellished the page with pieces from the Bits & Pieces pack and Cardstock Sticker sheet, including some phrase stickers (one of my favourite ways to add finishing touches!). I also included Decorative Brads for a different texture, handwritten journaling and a few splatters of black paint to bring everything together. There is a process video for this layout which can be viewed here: https://youtu.be/ZAhhV9dKtdw Enjoy!
For my second Fur Baby Dog layout, I wanted to highlight those gorgeous tag designs! I fussy-cut them from the patterned paper, punched holes, and threaded each one with coordinating ribbons from my stash. To keep everything lying nice and flat, I secured the ribbons in place with a couple of staples instead of tying bulky knots, such a simple trick for a smooth finish!
I arranged five tags around my adorable 6x4 photo, which I mounted onto an orange pattern from the 6x8 Paper Pad. I intentionally left a wide border along the bottom edge which gave e the perfect place for adding my handwritten journaling.
For the title, I used another gorgeous multicoloured piece from the Foam Stickers “Furever Friends”, how cute is that?! It ties everything together beautifully.
To complete the design, I sprinkled in embellishments from the Bits & Pieces pack, stickers and phrases from the Cardstock Sticker sheet, and a few Decorative Brads for extra texture. And of course, no layout of mine is complete without a few splatters of black paint, my signature finishing touch!
Thanks so much for stopping by today, I hope you feel inspired! Happy scrapping!
Niki xx
