Since I had such a busy bottom portion going on I deiced that I didn't want too many paper layers behind my photo, so I just used some pieces from KI Memories to give the photo a little pop. Next, I remembered I had some Basic Grey banners that were yellow and decided to drape that behind my photo. I realized that this kind of blended in with the background so I used some washi tape to help it not blend in so much. I knew that I wanted some journaling on this layout because a sign doesn't really explain the story haha! The stamp I used to create the journaling lines is from Autumn Leaves ( a very old stamp set). I put in a fun yellow eyelet to make the hole not look naked.

To finish off the layout, I added my title using some block stickers and added a cluster in the top left corner to give a little balance. I added some smaller embellishments around the main cluster as well. The flair button is from Studio Calico, the paper clip is from KI Memories, the jewels are from Darice, and the flower pin is from Little Yellow Bicycle! I hope you enjoyed this layout and get inspired for more summer layouts! Thanks for stopping by! :)
