Hello there - DT Layout for Paige Evans

Hey there lovelies,

I'm stopping by to share my newest layout with you that I've created for the Paige Evans Design Team. Most important news, Wonders is in the house yay!!! I'm so excited! I couldn't wait to create with this gorgeous new collection!

I don't know about you, but I like to sit with a new collection for a few days. Like literally, I put it next to me on the couch and go through it many times over the course of a few days. I like to soak it all in and see what speaks to me. While I wait, I usually take the papers that are good for fussy cutting, start Netflix and just start cutting away! One of those papers was the butterfly paper. I was planning to use something else first, but then these beauties were calling my name!


Once you fussy cut all butterflies (I've used them all on this page), the layout comes together super quick. I arranged them into a spiral around my photo (which I die cut using a basic stitched circle die then added a cardstock circle behind it and some foam tape for dimension). Some of them have two layers, because I had more than I needed but I didn't want to save them for another project. 


I then glued them all in place - adding just a little bit of liquid glue in the middle. Next, I stitched them down, then I bent up their wings.


I went through all the embellishments and picked out a few that went with my photo and also the colors of the butterflies. I added foam tape to all, then adhered them to the background. For my title I chose one of the chipboards. I looove chipboards!


Last but not least, I added my journaling and some white paint splatters. If you look closely, you'll see that the paint wasn't even dry when I took these photos hahaha!

You can watch the process video on my YouTube channel if you're interested:


That's it! I hope I could inspire you in some small way!

Thanks so much for stopping by! Have a beautiful day!
