Step-by-Step: First Kiss

by Ramona Greenspan (Mar 10, 2008)

I am usually a "one photo per layout" kind of gal but when I saw this series of photos of my daughter, I knew I had to scrap them all on one layout. I love using orange and am really into polka dot patterned paper right now. So, this Sassafras Lass Indian Summer patterned paper was perfect. With a little cropping I was able to get all three photos on one page without sacrificing a clean design. Let me show you how I did it.

Supplies:

Instructions:

  1. Trim a sheet of 12" x 12" Butternut Souffle patterned paper (from the Sassafras Lass Indian Summer Collection) to 8 1/2" x11".
  2. Trim ivory cardstock to 5" x 11".
  3. Trim with scallop decorative scissors.

    2_63*tip: When cutting with decorative scissors, it can be tricky to get a straight cut. I have a great tip. Turn the paper over and draw lines with a ruler about 1/4 inch in from all sides. Use those lines as your cutting guide. Flip over your paper for perfectly straight decorative edges.

  4. Adhere the scalloped strip of cardstock 1/2 inch from the right edge of the patterned paper.
  5. Trim all photos to 3" x 3".
  6. Adhere photos evenly spaced down the cardstock strip and slightly to the left.
  7. Place chipboard letter stickers for the title on the bottom lower left of the layout.
  8. Punch out the Indian Summer circle die cuts and add to the bottom right side of the cardstock strip.
  9. Add journaling to the bottom circle.
  10. Embellish photos with number stickers.
  11. Finish off the layout with a BasicGrey heart die cut topped with a red button.
