Hey everyone! This is Niki (@nikiclairecreates) with you today with two new layouts using the fabulous Book Fair collection. This is one of my favourites this year as I just love a school-themed collection!
For my first layout, I was inspired by one of the Big Bits: an apple with a cheeky worm wriggling out! The apple caught my eye, so I decided to make a large apple on my layout. I drew a template onto a sheet of A4 paper and cut it out. Then I traced around it onto one of the red papers from the collection and cut it out.
I mounted my photo onto a sheet of paper from the 6”x8” paper pad, and I used the same pattern to cut the stalk and leaf for my apple. I just drew these freehand and cut them out.
I layered my photo onto the apple along with the apple from the Big Bits, plus a couple of tags cut from the Tags Elements paper. I also tucked in that cute camera, also from the Big Bits.
I added more pieces from the Bits & Pieces, Floral Bits, and Journal Bits, then began adding smaller elements from the Chipboard Stickers and Decorative Brads. I love all the different textures I have on the layout! I also added some Foam Stickers too!
For my title, I used the word ‘Learn’, raising it on foam pads to make it stand out. I also added a few stars, which I raised as well.
I finished off with a few Enamel Dots, handwrote my journaling around the outside of my apple, and then added a few splatters of black paint!
I love how it turned out...the apple is so adorable! There is a process video for this layout available to watch here: https://youtu.be/-IG6c1a8E7w
For my second layout using this wonderful collection, I was determined to use the ruler paper!
I started with that fabulous orange paper-airplane design. I trimmed down a sheet of white card and layered it onto the orange background, then cut apart the rulers and layered those across the white panel, distressing the edges first, of course!
I added my photo onto the rulers. I went for an oversized school photo of my son. It is a few years old now. He was 5 in the photo but is actually 12 now! It’s such a gorgeous picture.
For my title, I used the ‘school’ sticker from the Cardstock Stickers and the word ‘Rules’ from the Page Pieces.
I then created two large embellishment clusters on opposite corners of my photo using adorable clusters from the Floral Bits, cute icons such as apples and bookcases, and some more generic stationery items. I finished off with Enamel Dots and splatters of black paint.
I think this layout turned out really well, I just adore the rulers in the background! Make sure to check out the Book Fair collection, it is so perfect for all your school-themed layouts!
Happy scrapping!
