I snagged this pictures from my sister's FaceBook because she looks like she is living her best life and I just want to document these memories for her!

To begin, I placed a variety of the papers from the Essentials paper pad onto a 8x11 sheet of white cardstock. Next, I cut another piece of cardstock to measure 7 1/2"x10" and mounted it to the center of the layout so that the patterns create a fun border around the layout.

I think you all know by now how much I love patterned paper!! Notice how I stamped the heart image from the Happiness stamp set onto a piece of journaling card and fussy cut it to create my own heart die!

I love making the most of my supplies in fun, creative ways!

The stamp images from the To Do labels fit nicely within the grid on the journaling card!

I included lots of stamping on this layout...they are so much fun! I added the flowers from the Happiness stamp set above the tab and geo shape.

Loving this cluster of embellishments...so fun! What do you think? It's fun, right!? Click here to check out the Essential collection and don't forget to use coupon code NICOLE10 to save 10% on your purchase! Thank you for visiting today!
