What a Girl

This fun Studio J Layout was a fun one to do. I took my young teenage grandaughter out on our own little mini photo shoot. We had so much fun. It was great to be able to create this layout so quickly. Notice the heart made from buttons. Do you wonder how i got that almost perfect. Take a MY STICKEASE shape and put it on your page where you want you button outline. Add the buttons evenly all the way around. Then add the string to each button. When you are all done, delete the sticker. It goes away and leaves the button image. Voila..... how fun!!! Try it yourself. You will love it.

More Inspiration from Studio J

With Studio J scrapbooking you can change the color of your paper, or accents and embellishments. I changed these accents to yellow to bring out the yellow in the dresses. Notice too how one of the 'my stickease' on the left side is small making a tab, and the one on the right is expanded large to form a journaling box. OH SO MUCH FUN

Look at this fun idea using the same photo

This fun layout was created using the same photo on the right page lower corner, and dropping it into 4 photo wells. Enlarged to 163% then 'put together' like a puzzle to create this fun look!!! You need to try this! It is a blast.

What a FUN PRODUCT!!! Color Ready Kraft Borders!

Check out these Darling fun Kraft Color Ready Borders! There are 50 borders in each package for only $5.95 (order number Z1377) They are self adhesive and can be sponged to different colors to accent your projet. Each border is 12" long. I just L O V E these!!!
