I made this layout today using the Studio Calico Atlantic Collection. This line is one of my all time favorites by SC. I love the colors and the soft feel and it is perfect for beach/nautical themed layouts.
The main product that I used on this layout is patterned paper. I LOVE to cut things out of paper (no idea why I love this, but it is one of my favorite things to do). SC has this really cool letter paper, so I cut the letters out for the title and then layered them for a messy effect. I cut so many out, I might be using them over and over for titles.
The backside of this paper has letters that are so pretty! You can purchase it from Studio Calico HERE. I also used this next paper a lot - I punched the circles out and layered them around the layout. This one is HERE.
I adore the vellum shapes that are part of this collection - so much so that I ended up purchasing three packs of them and have used most! Here they are and they are available HERE.
Here are a couple of close ups of the layout - I hope this gets you in the mood to scrap your summer fun photos! Hope you are all having a great week! suzy
PS - I ran out of adhesive recently. I used to buy it from American Crafts for a big discount when I was on their Design Team. I hate to pay full price, so I have started finding alternative ways to adhere things. This little tool is now my favorite ever - I used it to attach pretty much everything! Just thought I would recommend it - you can buy it HERE.
I LOVE how you scrapped on the photo! I've only really done that twice and need to try it again--SO cool!! I have that little stapler too and I have to agree it is a GO TO tool for me! ;) (I think I have a 2 year supply of those little staples too--can't run out!!)
