This is my Summer layout | DLS Design DT

Hey everyone! How are you doing this morning? It's actually getting cool here but I'm going to keep doing summer layouts! lol Do you scrap seasonally? Only summer in summer and winter in winter? Well I wanted to share a layout I made for DLS design, I have a process video for it as well and will add that link towards the bottom.
I pulled out some of the stencils, sime of my distress oxides from my stash and went to town on the background. It still suprises me from time to time that it really doesn't take to much time to play with a little mixed media. I added a little water to the edges so that they wouldnt be clena and perfect, well i guess you'll see that in the video lol
But I had fun playing with the stamps ontop of the stencilling, and moved on to cutting and layering papers. Ok I'll stop talking now and you can just watch the video lol. Hope you enjoy!

One Fine Day layout | Cut Cardstock DT

Good morning everyone!! Are you happy its Friday?!? I am! lol I'm ready for the weekend and some fun outdoors! Today I'm here to share a cardstock heavy layout!! And I love it! I ran 7 different cardstocks; Stardream Metallic Copper, Textured Pink Carnation, Canvas Textured Wild Salmon, Textured Flame Tree Orange, Orange Zest, Canvas Textured Rubber Ducky Yellow and Canvas Textured Galax Olive Green, through my sizzix using a fringe die. I ran a piece of the Cougar White Smooth CardStock through my silhouette and cut out a bunch of leaves. I saved the ones I cut out but I actually wanted to use the other part as my background.
I grabbed a random piece of paper from my stash and laid my fringe pieces out on it so that I knew I had enough pieces and that it was in the order I wanted. I also checked to make sure that my top piece would sit correctly. I added 3d foam adhesive to the back of the cutfile and placed it over the top, after I had gotten all the fringe pieces stuck down.
I pulled out the stash kit I've been working with. I added a few paper layers behind my photo and stuck it down, then moved on to adding embellishments and finding a title.
I thought this sticker that said One fine day, was perfect! This day had been fantastic and the kiddos had had so much fun, it worked! I pulled the leafy bits from the sticker sheet and added those in a few places. Along with a few other stickers that I layered in the bottom left corner, the left side of my photo and up at the top as well.
I pulled some older supplies from my kit and added some of the shiny rhinestone wooden buttons here and there, decided I wanted white splatters and that ended this layout! Hope you enjoyed this layout!
