Fiji Dreams

Yellow And Green Collage

Hi everyone! I’m back for week three of guest designing with Lasting Memories. For this layout, I used two photos taken during a recent trip to Fiji. I had never been there before and the resort we stayed at was a wonderful experience with amazing food, kind and welcoming employees and beautiful views. They specialize in diving excursions so we went out on a boat several days and I snorkeled around some incredible coral reefs.

I used some neon green paper from the Vicki Boutin Kaleidoscope collection. Every time I get a weird paper in a pack where I don’t think I’ll every use it, I’m proved wrong! I didn’t think I would use this paper as a background since it’s so loud, but it ended up working here since my photos contain this color as well! I layered in some paper scraps, the woodgrain paper being left over from a recent page!

I just ordered some supplies from Obujo, and used some brand new butterfly and dragonfly stickers on my page along with some yellow-green paper flowers and a PET frame. I had a big pack of paper punch-out letters and used some dark green ones along with some Loopy Love alpha stickers by Doodlebug to make my title.

The color palette at Lasting Memories for this week is in these vibrant green and yellow colors. I was also inspired by the botanical elements so I used photos with lots of foliage and included flowers on my layout.

I used the sketch from this month’s Sketch with a Twist challenge. The twist was to use stars and I included lots of little stars from a sheet of enamel dots by Altenew.

This page was also made for the September 3 in a Row challenge. I used the diagonal selection of woodgrain paper, free choice and any shade of yellow.

That’s all for this week. If you’re looking for a new one to compete in, check out the one I host over at A Cherry on Top. This month’s is a mood board. Hope to see you there!
