Mother's Day featuring Whistlin' Dixie by Quick Quotes


Hello, Neva here to share a layout showcasing a favorite photo from a few years ago. The colors of the photo lead me to use a selection of Whistlin' Dixie papers from the great paper collection by Quick Quotes.

  
 
The background of 103 has an elegant vintage feel so I decided to incorporate embellishments to reflect the look.
o   A large die cut from 106 provides an area for the title and journaling.
o   The edges are inked with Powder Puff Chalking in Kokomo.
o   Lace is added to one side of the die cut.
o   The title is die cut from coordinating red cardstock. 
o   The journaling is added after the layout is adhered together.
o   The photo is matted with the reverse side of 106 also edged in Kokomo.


I selected two sayings from 500 and die cut the circle and rounded the corners of the rectangle.  Both of these are adhered by thin foam adhesive to add a bit of dimension.  


The finishing touches are small bows and adhesive pearl embellishments added to complete a visual interest triangle.

The coordinating papers of a collection make it easy to put together a cohesive layout in a short time period.  This single page layout took about 30 minutes but is very elegant due to the wonderful background.
