You Make Me Smile

What is not to love about this sweet layout. I discovered this work of art on Melinda Spinks blog The Scrap Farm. Be sure to stop by for a visit you are sure to be inspired.

You Make Me Smile

Melinda used designs from Jillibean Soup, I love the soft tones of the aqua, grey, yellow and creams along with the subtle patterns in each of the patterned papers.

The Fine Details

I love all the texture and dimension that the layers of flowers and butterflies add to this layout.

Melinda created  the brick background by using The Crafters Worskhop Brick template and tracing and fussy cutting each piece. It’s these fine details combined with her priceless photo’s that make this layout so amazing.

Hidden Journaling

As scrapbookers we all know the importance of Journalling.  But sometimes there just isn’t enough room for all that we have to say :).  I love how Melinda hid most of the journalling tag, but has just the top of the tag peeking out.
