Better Together ~ My Creative Scrapbook mixed media layout

Thanks for stopping by today! 

I know that blog readership has declined but I do like having a place to document my creative work and to share the process as often as I can. 

Today's sweet layout was created as Design Team work for My Creative Scrapbook using the January Limited Edition  Kit. This kit features Simple Stories Simple Vintage Fresh Snow collection along with various embellishments including our signature florals.  


As soon as I received my DT kit, I remembered this sweet collage photo of two of the grandkids drinking presumably hot chocolate. I matted it with one of the gorgeous paper remnants from my last project. 

I don't recall ever creating a project that features multiple tags, so this was a fun project to do! And maybe thus why I didn't get it videoed. Who knows, December is a busy month, right? 

For my purpose, I did create the tag on the far right from one of the cut apart pages. The design really caught my eye and I thought the navy blue would be grounding. I kind of played around with my arrangement until I was pleased. However, I did not adhere them until after I used the Kit's pine branch stencil and some white molding paste. That technique helped add to the snowy feeling, 

After adhering my tags, I added  some twine to a few of the tags as well as the small chipboard You Melt My Heart chipboard. 



Here is a close-ups of the pretty designs on some of these tags. 



Don't you love the design of that Pine Branch stencil. It is also a Simple Stories product. 



For the lower right side of my layout, I played around with various chipboard pieces along with the 
SS ephemera to create a cute design to counterbalance my photo cluster. 



Then I begin adding some of my final features including my flowers and more of the ephemera. Lastly, I splattered some white Picket Fence. 

I love how this one turned out!
