Fussy-cutting is always therapeutic to me. One of my favorite go-to tool that is always nearby is my faithful precision scissors. I love being able to use Crate Paper patterned papers in fun and unusual ways and fussy-cutting is one way to do just that. I've also used fun elements from the new Flourish collection, specifically focused on the texture & dimension of the patterned papers and embellishments. 
I love layering and by doing so, it gives a lot of depth to my design and also a flow of all the elements together. I sure love that the photo of my beautiful daughters in the middle steals the show among all the beautiful floral around it. Adding the paper doilies sure give the elegant look I was going for too!
Adding other embellishment like stickers among the floral will create a 'fuller' design to your layout. 
At times, I love creating my layouts using minimal products. That sure challenges me to think out of the box and making do with what I have too!
Foam dots are one of my favorite supplies. By adhering behind your fussy-cut elements, it instantly creates the dimension that I wanted. Supplies: Crate Paper Maggie Holmes Flourish - Rose Garden (322359), Chipboard Stickers (344386), Cardstock Accent Stickers (344385), Standouts (344396)
That's it from me today! Be sure to grab Flourish collection from your fav/nearby scrapbooking store. I'm pretty sure you don't want to miss this stunning collection.
