Scrap Our Stash | May 2020 | What’s My Challenge | Hello Cruise Lounge

I used a photo from a cruise that I went on last year.  This picture was taken when my sister and I were on our way to the lounge for some drinks.  I decided to use the “Tic Tac Toe” row that had Flowers, Doily and Twine.  The papers that I used for this layout are from the DCWV Classy Copper paper pad.  I combined a small die cut that says “hello” and a copper foil thicker to create the title “HELLO CRUISE LOUNGE”.  I used the Creative Memories Floral Circle punch and one of the copper foil papers and to create a doily.  The background of my layout was created using a floral patterned paper with a green polka dot patterned paper as a mat. 

The picture was matted with white cardstock, green patterned paper and then a pink polka dot paper to make it stand out from the background..  I also layered several journaling cards from one of the patterned papers under my picture.  I cut the doily in half and tucked half under the right side of my layout and the other under the left side.  I fussy cut some of the flowers from one of the cut-aparts and popped them up with some foam tape.  I used the EK Success Flowers and Leaves punch and the Stampin’ Up Build a Blossom punch to create some flowers and leaves.    

I punched a hole in the top of one of the journal cards and added some white twine and topped it with a bow that I created with a white and gold metallic twine.  I used the EK Success Confetti Butterfly punch to punch some butterflies from the copper foil paper.  Some banners I cut from one of the papers with a pink background and tiny words in copper, the butterflies, a flare button and pink enamel dots finish off this layout.

Here are some closeups of my layout.
