Sweet Aloha

Yellow, Mint And Tropical Touches

Hi scrapers! This week I bring you another warm and summery page with contrasts greatly with the cold, dreary weather outside. Even here in Southern California, we are missing our usual sunshine. The photo featured was taken during a trip to the island of Oahu and I’m definitely missing their beaches, food and island vibes.

I started with some dark kraft-colored cardstock from the Affinity stack by The Paper Studio. I used some double-sided paper from Authentique’s Utopia collection. Pineapples, teal scallops and tiny sea turtles all fit well with my Hawaiian-themed page. The title is made up of a mixed media sticker by Momenta and a sticker from the Mambi travel sticker book. Chipboard stickers from Echo Park’s Good Day Sunshine collection and puffy stickers from American Craft’s Goldenrod collection add more beachy embellishments. I also used some Heidi Swapp ephemera in yellow and mint tones and some Jolee’s Boutique shells.

This page was created for the Sketches in Thyme February challenge. I loved all the paper layering in this layout because that’s something I do on a lot of my pages anyway. Using double-sided paper allowed me to feature more paper patterns and some of the color coordinating was already done for me. I kept a lot of the same elements like a piece of twine on a tag and arrows. I used a vellum arrow and secured it with some brads by Love + Lemon. As always, I added lots of additional embellishments to jazz up my page.

This page was also created for Kraft + Challenges. The theme this month was fruit! I used lots of pineapple and citrus elements on my page from paper, to tags to stickers. I love the bright and fresh feel the yellow fruity elements bring to my page!

That’s all for now! For more Scrap Attack content, you can find me on Instagram and YouTube at thescrapattack.
