Happy Birthday Leila

Hello everyone!

I hope you're all enjoying your week. Today I thought I'd drop in to share yet another Birthday layout :)

I'm slowly going back through Leila's older photos and picking out those that work with current Scrapbooking collections. My most recent favourite collection being Dear Lizzy - Serendipity

This layout was inspired by the January Mood Board Challenge over at Jot Magazine. Ive not actually entered any of these challenges before, but thought this would make a great start!

Inspiration for the layout came from the colour palette, the confetti, twine and sequin shaker pocket.

I started the page by making a full page shaker pocket. 

 Using white cardstock as the backing, plain vellum for the front and strips of pattern papers for the top and bottom edges. I sewed around 3 sides, before tipping in a bag full of silver sequins of all shapes and sizes. 

After sewing up the last side, I played around with the position of the twine. I settled for roughly looped across the bottom of the photo. 

 To finish it off, I've added a mixed alpha title (currently my favourite way to add titles to a page) and a few different hearts. Minimal embellishing so as not to distract from the photo :)
