So Many of my smiles begin with you

Hi Everyone, 
Good morning, I have a fun tutorial showcased on the Bella Blvd. blog today and I would like to share it with you.  

So Many of My Smiles


I had these bright cheerful photos that I took of my daughter at a park several years ago and I wanted to create a
colorful background
to match.  I love Bella's new designer tapes, the palette is so happy & bright and looks great paired with
the new feathers.


Step 1:  To create the clouds for this page I first trimmed several pieces of white cardstock just a little
bit larger than the punch that I intended on using.



Step 2: I layered strips of Bella Blvd designer tapes on my cut pieces.

Step 3: Then I punched out the clouds and layered them on my page.  I even save one of the cloud negatives and adhered
it to my page. These make such cute embellishments.


 

I also created a fun colorful title out of designer tapes by first - cutting my title using my Silhouette
Cameo, and then layering strips of designer tapes on strips of paper and adhering behind the title.


supplies:
Sophisticates: Freestyle Banana
Designer Tapes: Polka Dot Combo, Chevron Combo, Gray Dot, Hot Pink Dot, Yellow Chevron

Feathers: Gulf, Ice
Button Market: Stars, Orange Stars, Masculine Mix
