Darling Sweet Jane Layout

Here is the second of the four layouts in my Paige's Pages 15 class at Big Picture Classes - I combined my love of lots of things on this layout – watercoloring, cut files, and floral wreaths! You just can’t go wrong with a wreath design! Bonus - the cut file is included for free in the lesson!

 For the watercoloring, I left the cut file on the mat and went to town – I think it’s easier this way because everything stays in place and you can easily cover the intricate lines and designs with color. I tried to mix colors to match my Turn the Page collection which is what I embellished with.

A self-imposed challenge I have is to use patterned paper for my background and not repeat which pattern I use – there are 48 patterns in each of my collections so I try to use a different one every time! Instead of white cardstock like I am so(oooo) drawn to for the background, I chose a colorful yet subtle design (Paper 10) and painted a large circle in the middle as my white space.

The start-to-finish process video can be found over in the class if you're interested to see exactly how this layout came together!
