This layout started with a really old piece of Stampin' Up paper with green and white stripes. I used an old-fashioned print bag that I cut and used as a border. Then, I used washi tape from Scotch and ribbon on the side of it as well. I layered my photo on some Crate Paper patterned paper to add contrast.


My favorite part of this layout is the title cluster. I have been hoarding these wood veneer scissors for far too long and I'm glad I finally got some use out of them! I also used a clipboard cut out from Crate Paper, a Heidi Swapp glasses stamp, and a Pretty Little Studio label to complete the cluster. The title is a little bit wonky, but the first set of stickers are from Joann's and the second set are from Jolee's.


This fun cluster to the left of the photo is simple, but it's where I plan on journaling. I used a cork speech bubble sticker from Oriental Trading and a Paper & Spool flair. I think that the flair perfectly captures my cat's emotions, haha! I wasn't quite sure what to write in his speech bubble yet, but I'll fill it in.


Last, but not least is the cluster to the right of the photos. I loved this banner sticker from Freckled Fawn and paired it with a faux stamp sticker, and a burlap heart from Simple Stories. This is another one of my simple layouts, but it was still fun to make and bash my stash. I hope you enjoyed, thanks for stopping by!
