Fun In The Sun! by Conny Craig

Hi Simple Stories Crafty Friends,

It's Conny Here! Today I am sharing a 12 by 12 layout with three by four cards with Clusters. It's one of my favorite way to add a lot of embellishments to a layout.

Let's get started

I started by using the 12x12 basics kit Simple Vintage Coastal papers for the background. After, I flipped through the 6x8 paper pad. I loved the card-sending you oceans of love! Just capture all the love I see in this photo taken a while ago with my daughter.

I decided that I wanted clusters with all the beautiful things I love about the beach or would love to see at the beach when I am there.

The layout has six 3by4 clusters, including the photo in the middle-I chose chipboard, foam, layered, and cardstock stickers. Also, the floral bits and pieces are layered with a foam square for dimension.
My title is Relax, our beachy paradise. I ripped/distressed the top and the bottom on the layout-I wanted it to look like waves of water coming into the sand, just like when we are at the beach.

I am in love with everything in this collection. It took me on a mini-vacation while creating this layout. I can't wait to document more trips to the beach or the Islands in Belize.
