Sunshine Wanted Layout | Clique Kits

Good morning everyone!! I have a 12x12 layout to share using the Wildflower kit. One I love this kit! There are so many pretty papers and all the embellishments!! But for this layout I had to scrap a picture of one of my pups. It was a rainy day and he didn't want to go outside and he just moped around the house. He's so goofy.

He looks so mopey in this picture I kind of wanted to stick with more blues, but decided half way through that I wanted to add some of the yellow for some pops of color. This layout is really simple, but it was so fun to play with. I pulled a stamp, Flowers Always Add on, along with my watering can archival in and stamped on the upper part of my layout. Then I grabbed my Chartreuse stencil butter and watered it down and splattered it around on my layout, trying to keep it more towards the center of my layout so that it would show from behind where I was putting my layers.

I sat my background to the side to dry and started to play with the papers from the kits. I found a 3x4 pocket card that I decided to do my journaling on, so I knew that I wanted the first layer behind my photo to be larger but not to colorful. So I cut a large piece that fit both my picture and journaling card. I popped both of those up on foam adhesive and added them down. Made a mistake there. I hadn't added my stamping, but it worked out.

I pulled out a few of the other 3x4 cards and cut a label out of one to add in my layers, I didn't want to waist the rest of the card and thought the color of it worked great for adding to another layer, so I tucked it in at the top and off to the right side. It was all looking a little light at this point so I grabbed a large tag from the kit and cut it in half and added it to the right and left of my layers. I was liking the way it was looking so far but this was when I decided to add in some of those pops of yellow. I pulled a sheet of paper from the kit and fussy cut out a few strips of the scalloped strips and tucked them in at the bottom of my layers.

At this point I wanted to start adding more of my embellishments, so I dug in and pulled all sorts of pieces to tuck here and layer there. I found that yellow tab and added it onto my journaling card so that it would hide some of the writing that was on it that didn't really work for me, along with a piece if a tag from the kit as well to cover some more. At this point I added my journaling and then decided to pull a stamp from my stash and add a little rain cloud. I popped on my title and that was it for this layout. I hope you enjoyed this layout!!
