To create this layout you will need:

Layout by Krislyn Mattei – CM Design Team

Step 1: Use a sheet of Bright White Solid Cardstock as the base for this layout. Cut an 8-1/2? x 12? piece with the license plates designer paper and adhere 1/2? from the left edge of the base. Tear a 1/2? x 12? strip of the asphalt designer paper and tuck behind the right edge of the license plates designer paper.

Step 2: Cut a 6-1/4? x 12? strip with the blue stars designer paper and adhere 1-1/2? from the left edge of the layout. Adhere a construction border sticker just to the left of the blue stars designer paper. Crop three photos to 5? x 3-1/2? and mount them on three pieces of Bright White Solid Cardstock cut to 5-1/4? x 3-3/4?. Adhere on the blue stars designer paper.

Step 3: Using the outside of the CCS large heart pattern with the red blade, cut a half-heart shape with red marker pin designer paper. Move the pattern over and cut the other half to create a large 3-1/4? x 4-1/2? marker pin. Adhere embellishments and stickers on top.

Step 4: Tuck and adhere a 6-1/2? x 4-1/2? green variety mat behind the license plates designer paper piece on the lower right side of the layout as shown. Adhere embellishments, popping some up with foam squares.

Step 5: Journal as desired.
