Description: It's not very often that I'm the focus of my layouts but I know that my kids and future generations will (hopefully!) enjoy seeing the maker behind these scrapbooks and projects. It's also very rare that I'm in front of the camera so this picture is actually cropped - there are a few other people supposed to be in it, haha. Even though the colors in the photo went well with the Dear Lizzy Polka Dot collection by American Crafts, I loved how when I changed it to black and white it made the photo become the center of attention instead of blending in with the supplies. My most favorite scrapbooking supply is patterned paper and I like to feature it on most of my layouts. The more patterned paper I can use the better! So I used every pattern I could find from this line and created a unique element on the left side. A bit of stitching gives it a homespun look. I'm finally on board with the highlighter yellow color that's so popular right now and used it as an accent under the photo as well as to edge the left and top sides of my layout. I love that some of the papers in this line already have mist printed right on them - saves me a step and looks better than I could have done! It was really fun to focus on me for a change and use some papers that match my personality.How to: Trim thin pieces of every 12x12 and 6x6 patterned paper from the new Dear Lizzy Polka Dot Party collection by American Crafts. Adhere the paper strips on a blue paper background with white mist already printed on it diagonally from the top left corner. Zigzag stitch over a few of the paper strips and accent the papers with chipboard arrows. Add a fabric photo corner to the top left corner. Create a photo mat on the bottom right corner using a frame die cut, die cut photo mat, picture topped with a die cut Polaroid frame, another fabric photo corner, fabric bow, gold glitter foam Thickers for a title, and a wooden veneer banner with heart stickers on top. Write journaling above the photo.Supplies: Cardstock, patterned paper, chipboard arrows, wooden veneer banner, fabric bow, fabric photo corners, die cuts (Polaroid frame, photo mat, sentiment frame), stickers (hearts, glitter letters), pen, adhesive: American Crafts; Sewing machine: Brother; Thread: Coats & Clark
