had a new layout go up over on the jillibean soup blog today.

Alyssa_happy_jb 

this is a 9×9 layout. this photo of alyssa makes me happy. bright and cheerful. the yellow shirt she's wearing, that actually says "LOL" on it (i wish they had my size). a fun lollipop, and her earbuds going with her favorite music. this layout makes me happy. bright, fun colors, and polka dots. you can't get happier than red, yellow, and turquoise. well, maybe you can. but these are happy colors. so it was only natural that my title was "happy". i wonder how many times i have used that title 😉

some layout facts, for those that are curious. started with some core'dinations embossed cardstock. i love that they took some of the best jillibean designs, and turned them into jillibean embossed cardstock. then added a little bit of soup staples pattern paper. there's a reason they're called "staples". because you can use them on everything. and some polka dot ribbon. which should really be called a staple too, since i use these on TONS of my projects. need a ribbon? reach for my 5 rolls of jillibean polka dot ribbons. just second nature. i used some corrugated alphas for my title. then i layered a kraft baggage claim tag, along with a yellow journaling sprout and a date sticker, and handwrote some simple journaling. and i also pop-dotted the photo and the journaling sprout, just to add some extra dimension.

    I just love your layouts, they are always so perfectly cordinated. I was checking out your 2 peas gallery for inspiration of course and was sketching out your Hey You layout (I plan to scraplift it!) and as I progressed to your older layouts it was really cool to see how (as if it is possible) your layouts have gotten so much better and precise I guess is the word. I thought your older things were Great, but these newer ones Really are Fabulous! Just thought I would share!
