Hey hey scrappy friends 🧡. Does it seem like November is flying by? Speaking of flying, my bestie and I recently flew into Montreal for a one day tourist marathon.

I took this photo from the top of a giant farris wheel on the lake front in Old Montreal. I’ve used Paige’s beautiful Adventurous collection! I also used part of her One Day At A Time cut file. 

While on our way to an east coast scrappy event, my bestie Nadine and I visited Montreal. It was for only one day, but we made over 16,000 steps that day!! I cut it from AC Cardstock three times. I like the depth created by gluing three cut files together. I paper backed it with colors from Paper 18.

I’ve used pretty  Paper 17 as my background paper. The frames introduce a lot of colour you can incorporate into the rest of a layout. It’s a little change-up from white, but still a neutral background. There’s a wide banner spanning the middle of the page. I made it from the metallic wordie paper found in the 6×8 Paper Pad. I like the bling it added!

I added the narrow, navy, floral Washi Tape to a piece of scratch cardstock. Then used a scalloped punch to make some trim.

A little cluster of elements decorate a Chipboard label. I’m loving the colorful Mini Alpha’s spelling out ‘Old Montreal’. My photo is backed with a pretty postcard and tag from the Journaling Ephemera. Once in place, I created beautiful clusters using the Floral Ephemera, Cardstock Stickers, Enamel Dots, Mini Puffy Stickers, Chipboard flowers, flowers from the Sticker Book, and fussy cut butterflies from Paper 19. 

I love that there are so many different types of floral elements to layer up in Adventurous ! Including vellum, chipboard, cardstock, rub-ons and stickers. They make every page interesting, colorful and happy! Hey, why not try using a pattern paper for the background of your next pretty layout? It’s a whole different vibe from plain white! 

Where are you traveling to soon?
