Paper Sweeties August 2019 New Release Party! Hooray

Good morning everyone!!

I'm here sharing a new layout for Paper Sweeties New Release Party!! This month is the 7th Anniversary! And in kind these sweet stamps and dies were released.

This month just happens to be one of my littles birthday month too. So I got to put these cute little cupcakes on my layout! They worked perfectly!!

I had printed out a photo strip of my daughter blowing out her candles and getting cake pushed in her face, lol. I knew I wanted to stick in the family of pinks and yellows. They are some of the colors that say happy to me. I laid out all my pieces where I wanted them, to see if I like the set up, I thought there was a little to much white at the top of my layout so I decided to pull out some of my watercolors and play with the colors where I was going to add my photos and its layers.

I added different layers behind my photo strip and then popped it up on foam adhesive and placed it where I had added the watercolor. I moved to the bottom of my layout and started layering the papers, lables and such, until I was happy with it and then it was time to pull out my pretties from this months release!

I had cut my cupcakes out of some of the bits and pieces that were left in a mix of my collections and in my color scheme and assembled them. This it where I have fun! I mean, dont get me wrong, I love to add layers and play with watercolor, but I love adding all the pretty embellishments too!

I tucked some of the cute little cupcakes here and there in my layers at the bottom of my layout, followed by flowers and some stickers too. I thought the cupcakes represented the celebration just right!

Thank you for stopping by to see what I made today, make sure to head to the rest of the girls blogs too and see what everyone else has made with these cute stamps and dies!

Paper Sweeties July 2019 New release party

Good morning everyone,

I'm back this morning to share another layout with you using the cute new stamps and sweet cuts by Paper Sweeties.

I started this layout by stamping those cute little fish on the background, I stamped quite a few but some got covered up when I started to add the papers and embellishments.

I don't usually use colored photos but I have been lately. There have been a few layouts lately that I have used color pictures on them, I had found a bunch of old photos that I don't have copies of, so I'm using the original, and with these papers and stamps, it works great!

I had already stamped a bunch of little fishys, added a white mat around my photo and popped it up on 3D foam, so I started on my background.

I decided I wanted my picture towards the top and on the left because of the way he was looking. So I cut some paper strips and grabbed a few boarder stickers and layered them on the left side, ruffled the edges up and placed them down.

Once I had the paper strips down, I stuck my photo down on top of them and started water coloring the cute stamps in. This way they match the papers I'm working with too. I have to say that's one of the major things I love about using stamps!!

I added the title to the right of the photo, a mix of chipboard letters and some stickers, then I tucked that cute little treasure chest under the title to the right and a little pirate star down at the bottom of the title and under the photo. I added some cute little stripped and dotted hearts here and there.

Then I bounced to the bottom left corner and started adding embellishments there. I knew I wanted that tag, I tucked a hears and that cute scalloped circle behind it. I stamped sun kissed nose to the tag and along the paper strips. I knew that cute little pirate starfish would add a pop of yellow to the bottom of the layout, so I popped that cute little guy up on some foam adhesive. To finish off the layout I decided to add some stamped bubbles and then some teal and blue splatters.

I love what these stamps added to the layout, the cutness and whimsy, were just perfect!!
