Spring has finally arrived here in the Midwest. Hopefully most of you are enjoying some warmer temps as well. I’m anxiously waiting for everything outdoors to turn green. I scrolled back a couple years in my photo archives to find the photos for this spring colored layout. This layout combines my two latest obsessions (1) all things black and white and (2) bold handwritten script fonts.
I have a bit of a font obsession and when you’re a graphic designer as well as a scrapbooker, it’s easy to justify all the font purchases. Bold, handwritten script fonts are popping up everywhere. I couldn’t wait to use one of my new favorites on a layout.
I chose three coordinating papers from three of the different Jubilee lines. That black and white tribal paper is one of my favorites as well of course. The die cut letters weren’t standing out enough against the white cardstock, so I sprayed them with some Mister Huey to make the title pop.
SUPPLIES :My Mind’s Eye Jubilee Wild Berry “Life” Tribal paper, Jubilee Tangerine “Honor” Traveler paper, and Jubilee Sherbet “Happy” Ombre paper. Jubilee Sherbet “Peace” chipboard elements, Jubilee Tangerine “Fantastic” sticky notes, Jubilee Wild Berry “Life” mixed bag, and Jubilee Tangerine “Awesome” mixed bag. My Mind’s Eye Necessities wood shapes, Record It “Here is Happy” decorative tape, and Emerald & Blue decorative tape. Other: Silhouette Cameo (font: Heartwell), Studio Calico Mister Huey, white cardstock, Tim Holtz tiny attacher, American Crafts phrase stamp, date stamp.
Don’t you love the Jubilee sticky notes?! I love that there’s a whole little pad of them which is perfect for if you happen to mess one up. I also found some decorative tape that coordinated perfectly with the color palette and the Necessities Wood shapes really add some great dimension!
My son’s spring break is coming to a close, so we’re heading off on another little local adventure today. This time it includes pants! Thanks for stopping by!
