Beautiful Memories Layouts/Nicole Martel

Good morning friends! I just received the Herbarium Collection and oh, my...is it beautiful! I love everything about this collection... The color scheme and flowers are absolutely beautiful.

I decided to scrapbook this selfie I took a few days ago. I love it and it looks nice with this collection. It's so feminine.

To begin, I cut the blue floral print to measure 8 1/2x11 and the cream floral print to measure 7 1/2x10. Then, I cut a variety of patterns and journaling cards in various sizes to create a nice, layered mat for the photo.

Once I was satisfied with the papers and placement of the photo, I mounted it down. Then I embellished the layout with tags, labels, clear stickers, chipboard and stamps. I fussy cut the butterflies from patterned paper.

The butterfly and flower was mounted with foam squares to add dimension. Then I added the chipboard heart and gems.

I cut the sentiments from patterned paper to use for the bottom of the layout and hand-doodled the scribbles.

Super, pretty! I just love how pretty everything looks on this layout. In fact, I love this collection so much, I created another layout right after I created this layout. I was super inspired!

For this layout, I decided to play around with the floral stamps. They are so pretty and I had fun creating the floral background for this layout using inks and stamps.

I stamped the flowers in different directions using pink, blue and purple ink. Next I glued tiny gems to the center of the pink and purple flowers. I used a metal die to cut the title and then stamped "little stories" below the title.

I made the tag by cutting a scrap piece of patterned paper into a rectangle and then rounding the corners using a corner rounder. Then I stapled the ribbon onto the tag.

What do you think? Loving the layers on this layout as well. I can't wait to share with you the layouts I created using the Frosty Seasons Collection!
