Another So Cal Layout

I'm back today with another layout I created using So Cal from Studio Calico.

For this page I used only what was in the kit and add on, except for ink and adhesive. I cut out a doily border using my Cameo (am so into doily's lately). I did not need to do much with this page because the background was so busy to begin with. I stamped and fussy cut all of the cute bubble quotes that were in the Venice Beach add on kit that I got, used pop dots to add dimension. I really love the way this layout turned out, with the added benefit of it only taking me about 30 minutes.

Will be back tomorrow with another layout from So Cal.

Hugs!!

A few So Cal Layouts

I am just loving the Studio Calico monthly kits, June was the first month that I joined the monthly subscription kit club, and they really do make an amazing kit. Here is a layout that I made with my very first kit So Cal:

This layout was so much fun!! I got to use lots of flowers and pink, which I normally stay away from  since I scrap mostly pictures of my son. This picture is from last year when we were in Florida. We go to the same place pretty much every year, since I was about 10. I get so excited bringing my son back to this place and sharing my memories with him of when I was a child and my parents would bring me and my brother here. This picture was taken at the St. Pete Pier. When I was younger i remember it seemed much bigger then it is to me right now. Back to the layout, I used my Cameo to cut out the doily at the top and the bottom left hand corner, then I glimmer misted them both. I glimmer misted all of the flowers (not included in the kit, from my stash), and for the little pink ones, I stamped on them, because i wanted to give them some more depth and interest. I placed flat back pearls in the centers of all the flowers (from my stash). I used some Studio Calico Veneer Birds (not included in the kit), and I stamped a feather design on them to also give them some interest and depth. Love the way this layout turned out!!
