Hello beautiful people!
Today I'm bringing you a layout featuring what maybe one of the most underrated scrapbook supplies, ever (at least for me). Stickers! I tend to overlook stickers most of the time, because, I admit, but when I take a second look at them, I can actually see using lots of them on one layout. I really should do that more often seeing how much I love how this layout turned out.
Supplies: Patterned paper - Countryside Picnic; Stickers - Countryside 6 x 6 label stickers (blue), State Fair 6 x 6 Label Stickers (yellow) , (cream), State Fair Label Stickers, State Fair Addy Alpha Stickers (green); Brads - Pebbles; Twine - The Twinery; Scallop Punch - Fiskars; Others - needle and thread.
So, the other day, I baked some cookies and it turned out okay! Let it be known that I don't cook/bake very well. So that itself an achievement. :) I needed to document that. Took some photos of the said cookies and then proceeded to dig into my stash of Studio Calico goodness.
Then I saw the label stickers from Countryside and StateFair collections and thought that some of them would make a nice banner to house my title. I played around and loved the outcome! I love how my photo is the focus of this layout (notice the exclusive SC chicken wire atterned paper I used as the background? :)) but I feel like I was able to inject some 'homemade' feeling to it with the Picnic patterned paper, the imperfect hand-stitching, handwritten journaling and the twine on the stickers. I also added the red label sticker from State Fair label stickers to mimic the gingham pattern of the patterned paper.
I hope this inspires you to dig into your stickers stash! :)
i love it !!!
beautiful !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I really loved your layout so much. I had to try and make one myself. I used pp as a photo background as well, and then lots of stickers. Love how it turned out. Thank you so much for the inspiration!
