Three Layouts Featuring The Frolic Collection

Hi eveyone!  Debbie here with you today sharing 3 layouts I created with the new Frolic paper collection.  I love the colors in this collection, perfect for your summer photos.  

My first layout highlights the Amoroso, Dans le Jardin, Friendship and Calling Cards paper.  I thought they were perfect for a somewhat masculine layout.

Lots of layering behind my photo and some fussy cutting.

I used the Collage Border and Bits of Honey chipboard, both of which I primed with some gesso and then colored with water colors.

My flower cluster on the right hand side along with some of the Bits Of Honey chipboard.

As you can see I again used some of the Bits Of Honey chipboard and the word Noted from the Arrow Words which I colored with some water color paints.

My next layout is a feminine one.  Love the pretty color combinations in the background paper, Mercantile. I also used the Friendship and Calling Cards papers. 

 Lots of subtle stamping with the Forever and Vintage stamps.

From the Arrow Words I used Love This, which I covered with gesso and applied some gelatos.   I also used the Gatsby Collage which I also covered with gesso and then added some gelatos and micro beads

Tucked beneath my cluster of flowers in the new Floral Lattice Bits chipboard.

Here I used more of the Floral Lattice Bits and added some micro beads.

My last layout I created using the August sketch and the Friendship, Allegro, Dans le Jardin and Calling Cards papers.  I added some stenciling and mists on my background to blend with my flowers. My photo is backed with a chipboard piece from the Paisley and Vine Medley and some Mini Flourish chipboard pieces are nestled among the flowers.

My title Smile is from the Smile, Funny, Giggle set which I colored with some gelatos.

Here you can see more of the Paisley & Vine Medley chipboard which I painted with gesso and misted.  I cut a few butterflies from the Dans le Jardin paper and added them to my clusters.

I hope you have enjoyed my layouts.  Don't forget that you still have time to enter our August Sketch Challenge.  You can find all of the details here.

Thanks for stopping by!
