Bittersweet

So excited to share with you my most recent scrapbook layout since I know I haven't shared too many here recently (no worries I have lots to share in the coming days). Just finished a Scrapbook with me session with my group and had so much fun creating this layout.



The inspiration for this layout comes from this sketch from the July 2020 double-page challenge from Stick It Down.




You can find this sketch along with lots of other sketches for both cards and scrapbook layouts on the Stick It Down blog - here.

I used some retired paper from Close To My Heart for the layout along with some miscellaneous buttons from my stash - I am continuing to work towards my personal challenge of using up my own stash of supplies.

I cut the title using the Cricut and the font from the Close To My Heart Artbooking image set.



You can see this font as well as the other images from this collection on my Cricut Affiliate link - here.

One habit I have in my scrapbooking is when adding embellishments I add them in groupings of three. I did that on this layout with the buttons at the title banner, on the bottom of the left page and again on the right page to balance it out.



I hope you liked this layout!

Thanks for stopping by!
