Details on layouts

I am going to post several layouts and show some of the detail work done on them. I think it is important to get that detail into your layouts. Just putting a little bling, brad or background texture on the layout can really make it extra special. I am using the Topstitch paper on all these. I did a 18 page layout using a level 2 paper kit, some extra card stock and 18 pieces of 12x12 paper.

I used some pop dots to raise the party circle on this and stamped the swirls around it.



Stamping in the spaces that have nothing in them helps tell the story.



Stamped some more swirls in a void space.



I cut out some flowers out and put a brad in the middle of them. Easy and looks good.



I put in two eyelets and tide some twine between them.

Distressing along the edges of the paper makes them pop out more.
