Bundled Up Layout - FotoBella DT

Hi Friends,
This layout features the BoBunny - Winter Getaway Kit.   I found the perfect papers to frame the sweet photos of my nephew all bundled up on a chilly day.  I personally struggle with little boy layouts and find them a bit challenging but the simple doodle style snowflake designs were just what was needed. You can find the complete step by step tutorial for my cute Winter layout HERE on the FotoBella Blog.


This project is entered into the following Challenges:

Family Winter Layout - CE Challenge

Today I am sharing my simple and quick layout using the BoBunny - Winter Getaway Kit.  I was inspired by the many natural elements in the moodboard below such as wood grain.  The chose a light background with a corner cluster of forest creatures.  I also used wooden snowflakes to continue that natural feel of the layout.  I added a bit of glitter to some of the background snowflakes to make them pop.  Finally, I draped the banner from the large title by tying it around the end flourishes.

Drinks & Inks

Again, I was tempted to enter the world of CAS (clean & simple).  I hope you like the subtle hints of lime green.  I added Glossy Accents clear gloss medium over the martini glass that gave it a perfect shiny finish.

CAS Sea Shell Card

My cards are rarely so clean and simple. (CAS)   Somehow I managed to restrain myself here.  I like the limited colors and cool shade of aqua. Amazingly, I added no embellishments even though I was tempted to add a pearl. This card was a pleasant surprise.
