August Blue Fern Studios' Layouts!

Hi everyone!

I have been looking forward to sharing 3 new layouts that I made using Blue Fern Studios' products with all of you!  I went with a family theme for the month of August.  I wanted to share how easy it is to make layouts that mean something to you!!!

So without further ado, here they are:

Layout #1:  Life is Full of Surprises

I used a photo that I took of my daughter, Anne, in 2012.  She loved to ride her bike(and still does) and got on it one afternoon, still in her dress after going to church.  I have hidden journaling about this tucked under the photo.

For this layout, I used the gorgeous "Tattered Walls" collection.  I really love all of the beautiful paper in this collection.  This particular paper is entitled "The Sun Room."  

Here is a close up:

As you can see, I stamped and embossed directly on the edges of my page to bring your eye directly to the photo.  I also embossed my chipboard with Buttercup embossing powder.  You have to try Blue Fern Studios' embossing powder - it is a dream to use!!!

Layout #2:  Fabulous

For this layout, I used a photo of my niece, Sarah, age 3, and my daughter Katie, age 8, taken for Mother's Day in 1997.  

This time, I used the beautiful and versatile "In the Mood" collection.  I love how the pinks and reds of the paper go perfectly with the pinks of Sarah's and Katie's dresses.  

To give you a better look, here is a close up:

Layout #3:  Our Family

This layout features the very gorgeous Tattered Walls collection.  The paper is entitled "The Carport."  (I have said this before, but I just love how each of these papers are named after a room!)  

I featured photos of our immediate family that you have seen before, but I wanted to scrap all of my favs.  

I especially loved using the small chipboard frames embossed in gold and the gold Lace 9C!

Here are some close ups:

I stamped and embossed the edges of my paper with the "Night Sky" embossing powder.   I also embossed the chipboard solar dangles with it.  To me, Night Sky EP is spectacular and goes perfectly with this patterned paper, too.
