Maggie Holmes Design Team : Moment Layout

Hello again crafty friends! Have you seen Maggie's latest collection called Heritage? It's so beautiful and elegant, as always! To be very honest, the first thing that I will always look through a new collection is what I can fussy cut! Guess, I just can't run away with the fact that I like to cut papers manually. Haha. In my browsing moments,  I'm always happy to see floral patterns in all Maggie's collections because I know I will cut them out and use them on my projects. I just love it!To create this layout, it is pretty easy.Firstly, I started with picking 2 pieces of patterned paper. One for fussy cutting and another one to layer. I really love the blue striped paper but it was a little too contrast on the overall feel. To tone it down, I spread some gesso to keep it subtle. Once that is done, I went on with my layout composition by arranging the fussy cutting, the photos and other sentiments that will enhance the design of my layout. Once I have arranged all the elements, I adhered them onto my layout. 
I always loved using foam dots to create height and also dimension for my projects. That way they won't look flat. 
To add more texture to the layout, I added some paper crepe ruffles at the corners. It is simple but yet it gave a very delicate look to the background paper beneath. 
I hope you enjoyed this layout that I created. Have a great crafting week!
