figured that since we're talking bella blvd, it would be a good time to share this layout with you, since it has some of their great pattern papers on it. that brown circle paper is one of my absolute favorites, from the man of the house collection. and the flower paper is from the all inclusive collection.
my layout was featured, to show how to use faux metal accents on your pages. those chipboard circles have foil butterflies printed on them. and it does make it look like i added metal butterflies. i love premade embellishments that look this cute and are so easy to use.
but here's a little secret for you. i actually created this layout to show how to use a multiple amount of frames on your page, and how to use them for your journaling. that was what my assignment was, but they must have switched the focus of it up a bit for the final issue.
i used a fun mix of chipboard frames, clear acrylic frames (backed with cardstock), and glitter sticker frames.
to work the journaling into the frame, i simply measured how big the opening was. i created a text box on my document, that was the size of the opening. then i typed up my text so that what i wanted to journal would fit in the box.
i'll be back tomorrow with a gift giving project share. and don't forget to leave a comment on my other giveaway, if you havn't already. you have until thursday night.
