Hi, it’s Monique, with a layout about my daughter using the Keepsake collection.
When I saw the colors of this collection I knew exactly which photo I was going to use for my page. Normally I tend to use red & pink colors for my layouts, but lately I find myself reaching for yellow more and more and this combination with blue & grey I absolutely adore!
One of my favorite techniques is layering. I love to layer papers with different designs and colors and then stitch them all together, as sewing on my projects is almost a “must” for me.
Have a Drink & Relax, by Monique Liedtke

For this layout I used a sheet of cardstock as my base and layered 3 Keepsake sheets on top of it (“Razzleberry & Chiffon”, ”Garden Delight” and “Sound of Music”). The photo is placed on a matt of yet another sheet of the Keepsake line: “Windowview”. Behind the photo I placed two pieces of patterned paper, which were machine stitched first. I then added the title on top using two different sets of alphabet stickers (Sprinkle Glaze and Mini Alphabet Stickers).

For the next step I used stamps from an older collection of My Little Shoebox: "Sew Cute" and stamped around the photo.
To create the epoxy banners I used the Pennant tool from "Epiphany Crafts". To adhere the banners to the page I used 3D Foam Squares to raise them a bit to create dimension.

I finished my page by adding cardstock stickers, die cuts, twine, flowers, a swirl, liquid pearls and some ribbon.

And that’s it! Hope you like it!
What I love about the Keepsake collection is that all the papers are double sided. Because of that there are so many fabulous designs to choose from for your project and they all match so perfectly!
I would love to see what you create using this line! Please share your projects on our Facebook page and I'll make sure to stop by your blogs to have a look!
Hope you all have a wonderful day!
