To create this layout you will need:

Step 1: Use a sheet of Bright White Solid Cardstock as the base for this layout. Cut a 12” x 3-1/4” strip with mint gingham paper and adhere on the bottom of the layout.

Step 2: Cut seven 1” x 1-3/4” strips with kraft dots paper. Cut seven 1” x 1-1/8” pieces with a variety of designer paper scraps. Flip all pieces to their back sides. Align one kraft dots strip and one square piece. Place a tape strip on the seam to hold the piece together. Using the Handheld 1-Hole Punch, punch half circles along the seams on both long sides, as shown. Using the stamping blade, cut 1/8” off each short end. Repeat with the remaining pieces. Adhere side by side along the mint strip, alternating colors.

Step 3: Cut a 4-1/4” x 12” strip with tiled collage paper. Adhere about 3/4″ from the left edge of the layout. Cut a 3-3/4” x 12” strip with kraft dots paper and adhere on top. Arrange and adhere a variety of tag embellishments on top, as shown.

Step 4: Crop two photos to 5-3/4” x 3-3/4” and mount on the layout. Crop two photos to 2-1/4” x 2-1/4” and mount on two square embellishments. Adhere on the layout.

Step 5: Adhere stickers popping some up with foam squares for dimension. Journal on the tags as desired.
