Summer Magic with Nathalie

Hi there!
Nathalie with you today bringing you a new layout that features the lovely July Scrapbooking Add-on kit to document a magical summer memory.  This month's kit is packed with beautiful papers and designs that will make it so easy to document your memories.

It was so hard and easy to pull pieces from the July kits to create this page.  However, i chose to start with a non-white background.  Once I found this light blue cardstock, my first idea was to add a bit of mixed media to the background.

Using the Pinkfresh Studio watercolors (found in the CTK Shop), I added splashes of color to the background.  While it dried,  i used  my Silhouette Cameo to cut two of the stars backgrounds (Subscriber cut file) from the white cardstock included in the Add On Kit.

In addition, i used another cut file (subscriber only) to create the title of this page, and backed it with papers from the add-on kit.  With so many choices in the papers, it was easy to create a summer masculine palette for the title.

A bit of foam adhesive secured the cut outs to the page. A few sentiments from the Add-On stamp set were also added to the background.  The picture was then set on the middle of the page - nestle between the cutouts- and clusters of ephemera and stickers from the Add-on kit and a few from the Life Crafted kit were added to the corners of the picture.

To finish the page, i added a small strip of paper to the bottom of the page, and then added a few gold ink splatters and lines of journal besides the title.

I love the final look of the page. This month's Add-on kit is so packed with beautiful pieces that will get your creativity flowing, and make it easy and quick to document all your memories -not just those Sunny Summer ones-.  Remember you can always contact me if you have questions on how this came together.
