Layout Share: Truckin' To Texas

For the month of January, Jill over at Memorable Seasons let each of the Design Team pick out their papers for the design team kit. I mixed and matched papers from various manufacturers. Several of them came from the Bo Bunny Olivia collection, so Jill sent the embellishments that coordinate with those papers. I also used papers from My Mind's Eye, Prima, Scrap w/in Reach, Basic Grey and KI Memories.

The papers I picked out are on the back row and the ones Jill added are in the front:

Then she added some awesome embellishments to it to round out the grouping.

And here's the first project I created with this kit:

 For this layout, I had too many photos I wanted to include (hardly shocking, I know), so I used the kraft cards to create a flap under each photo for more photos and the journaling. This way I was able to include photos that weren't so good (only had my cell phone with me).

I added some scalloped punched red paper to parts of the layout to pull the colors together and used those little mini alpha letters like they were going out of style.

 

The main flowers that have brads in them are from the sticker sheet...I either altered them with glossy accents to give them more dimension or I cut them out differently so I could omit colors I didn't want to include.

  The title on this layout is highlighted with glossy accents to help it stand out more against the background.
