Gardeners of the Soul

by Kristin Rizzo

Hello, it’s Kristin here to share a 12×12 layout with you using the Gardener’s Of The Soul Cut File and the Full Bloom Creative Kit, featuring this lovely collection from Simple Stories!

I started by selecting this very easy to use patterned paper from the kit. I already knew I wanted to use my photo with Khristina for the page. Then I went through the ephemera pack and started to grab pieces I thought would work well with the layout.

For my layout I used this adorable brand new cut file from the Jennifer Edwardson Creative Inc. shop. I wanted the title to really pop, so I backed it with this super cute red and white polka-dot paper from the 6×8 pad in the Full Bloom Mini Kit.

The beads fit perfectly over the center of some of the flowers, which I also scattered throughout the layout. I must have bling on all my layouts, so I added some bling to the centers of a few of the flowers.

I added my ephemera, stickers, chipboard and buttons to complete the layout. I adore the little bees and ladybugs in this collection! Aren’t they adorable?
