Treasures layout | Mercy Tiara Kit club DT

Ok, so these kits are big! There is so much in them!! I can’t believe after 7 layouts I still have so much left! I decided I was going to go a little different route with this layout. I started with the pictures and one of the foam sticker titles and that’s it. I liked the color if the title so I thought I would go with pinky/ coral colors and yellows. So, I went through the kit and started to pull things in those colors. When I was done with that, I had quite a bit!

I added a little glue to the backs of my photos when I got them the way I liked and then started to play with layering behind them. Before I started sticking any of that down I decided that I wanted to add a little mixed media to the background. My saltwater taffy was a little too pink so I added a little crackling campfire to it and it worked just fine.

While that was drying, I started to glue the layers together behind my photos. I added 3d foam to the back of my photos before adding some of the paper layers and ruffing up the edges. I got a couple layers in and decided to add more 3d foam for some more dimension. This way I could tuck a little more in there and there too.

I played with the different pieces I had pulled. I loved the little moths! I added a little foam to them too and popped them on here and there. I tucked a label in towards the top, little word stickers that made me think of my little miss and then I moved on to the title and my journaling.

To finish the layout off, I had already added some mixed media to the bottom right side too, so that I could add another cluster of pretties. So, I went to layering some of the labels, tucking a happy days chipboard piece, adding some dimension and tucking a glower in, popping up a moth and then adding a few enamel dots around the layout and I was done!

Good morning crafty people!! I’m here this morning to share another new layout with you using the Mercy Tiara Brighter days kit. This kit just keeps giving and giving! I have been having so much fun playing with it, and I still have more projects to share!! This layout is about me, and all the journaling is hidden, but I have been trying to be better about writing down the story, even if everyone else can’t read it. I really started this layout with the picture, the foam sticker title and a piece of white cardstock.

I cut multiple flowers out from the cut files you get when you purchase your kit, I thought since I was doing a layout about me, I could use the pretty flower cut files and flower paper too lol. I pulled the floral paper, it’s from the Flea Market collection from Simple Stories, You’re my fave paper. I knew I wanted to use that, come on its soooo pretty!! Then I pulled different papers that I thought would go with it, some other patterned papers and some that I considered plain or can be used as one for me at least.

I added layers behind my photo, after adding a white boarder of course. I added adhesive foam for dimension and played with the papers till I got them just how I wanted them. I ran some of them threw my sewing machine, added more 3d adhesive and ruffed up the edges. I tucked the pretty flower cut file behind my layers there so that some of it would be sticking out and showing. At this point I hadn’t adhered down my photo and its layers.

I cut a 3-inch strip of that beautiful floral paper and added it to the bottom of my layout and ran it through my sewing machine. I played with the same papers form the ones I used behind my photo; I used the same ones on the bottom. But I didn’t stick them down right away. I decided I wanted to play with a little mixed media and get a bit more of that darker teal color on the page. So, I did. I added a “puddle” behind my photo and its layers and hidden journaling, then I added some to the bottom of the layout where I had picked my title to go.

I added some splatter around the layout too, waited for everything to dry and then stated adhering things down! I tucked some labels behind my title and in those layers I had already made, I slid some foam florals in up by my photo and a cute little camera too!

I tucked in some of the pretty vellum leaves, a life is beautiful banner to the right of my photo, and I decided I was done with layout. I have a question?? Do you show all your journaling where everyone can see it, or do you hide some of yours too? When it’s something personal? I hope you enjoyed this layout, and I hope you come back to check out more!!
