Encre, papier, ciseaux: Love You to the Moon and Back

Inspiration: June 2019 Page Maps Sketch + Just Add Ink #653 (Pastels + Baby)

I like how the Boho Baby collection from Simple Stories breaks out from the usual baby line mould. The use of mustard yellow and browns is definitely a departure from the usual look, and I like that it has that Crate paper look that Simple Stories has put out for a couple of years now.

For this one, I fussy cut a large "Love You to the Moon and Back" image from the 4" x 6" cut-apart page, popped it on dimensional adhesive and used it as my title. I double-matted the picture with navy cardstock and the pink floral paper, which edge I distressed. I love this sweet picture of my oldest niece, curiously looking at herself in the mirror. Look at those chubby cheeks!

I had previously done a bunch of buttons with my button press, so I pulled out the one I had done with the lion face from a piece of patterned paper and added it to the corner of the picture. I handwrote my journaling on one of the pieces from the Journal Bits. From the chipboard stickers, I picked a camera, the teepee tent and the word Sweet. From the Bits & Pieces, I pulled out the hanging clothes and I die-cut a piece of ric rac from the navy patterned paper. I added a few decorative brads around the page, a few foam stickers and enamel dots. To finish embellishing, I added sequins and a gold puffy sticker, plus a couple of clear stickers and iridescent rhinestones.
