Amarilys's Scrappy Corner: sunday...Annelie Project Life Album-Wk 4

I'm here today sharing a Project Life style layout I made using the Sunkissed Garden Kit from The International Scrapbook Garden! This kit includes so many ephemera cards in gorgeous colors that I just *had* to make this layout!

Of course, this layout is for my new baby girl's album! I've been taking a photo a day and writing a little bit about her or her day each day since she was born and will do so for her first year of life. Little by little I'm getting her pages (one week each layout) done and hopefully I'll be done by the time she turns 18! LOL

This is week 4 in her album and she is 35 weeks old today.

As I said before, I used the 6"x4" and 3"x4" ephemera cards included in the main kit for this layout. In fact, most of this layout was made with the main kit and only a few things from my stash!

I made the sweet flowers using Heartfelt Creations Classic Rose Die and swirly leaves are done using the Heartfelt Creations Tropical Paradise Die. For the leaves I die cut them from white cardstock and then painted them with the 13@rts Ayeeda Paint Turquoise from the Mixed Media Bonus Kit.

I used the fussy cut butterflies throughout the whole layout to tie it all in together!

I also did a lot of fussy cutting for this one and used the fussy cut roses to tie in all the individual cards together. I also used the gorgeous turquoise lace ribbon on this particular card. Isn't it gorgeous!?

Here's another close up of my layout. It has a lot of layers but I kept the dimension to a minimum because somehow I have to fit in 52 weeks on one or two albums for my baby girl's first year of life and it can't be too bulky.

All of my cards have a little bit of journaling, either in the front or in the back for either privacy or more space to write in. You can see a few flipped cards in this picture with journaling in the back.
