Hey Roadies! Don't you love to capture memories?! This layout today is a pretty special one. Jetson (the fluffy dog) is usually scared of everyone, especially men. Our friends, Tony (in the picture) and Laura bred Sheldon, the other dog in the picture. Tony has made it a mission for Jetson to be comfortable around him. He finally succeeded and I had my camera ready!
I knew some Maya Road embellishments would take part in the layout as soon as I started on it. AND I knew that I wanted to keep the color to neutrals on my embellishments. So I pulled out my kraft, wood, and cream colored embellishments to get to work! The little envelopes seem to be a go to for me. They were the first thing I reached for and knew one of them was staying on the layout. I folded the flap slightly and then placed a label sticker with some foam adhesive on it right on top. I also bent the flap for a little dimension.
And there is a whole lot of Maya going on in this picture! I wanted a border and I came across the corrugated kraft tags when I was looking for embellishments and decided making them into a border would be a fun way to get them on my layout. Add a little twine and some resin flowers to cover the hole in the tag and I was set!
The little wood token actually fell onto my layout and I decided I liked where it fell! I love happy accidents like that. Thank goodness it wasn't paint or ink!
The taupe felt rose fit right into my color scheme and I just added some stickers around it and tucked that ADORABLE mason jar clip in behind it. LOVE those and it was a perfect way to use it!
Honestly I was a little stuck until I decided on the neutral color scheme for my embellishments. If you have some bright colors or hard patterns, give the neutral twist a try! I am glad I did! Have a great day and weekend!
