DREAM BIG JOURNAL PAGE

 Hi everyone! I'm back again with another project for my design team spot over at

For this project I started out creating a large sunflower. Once I had it cut out on my Cricut I had no idea what I was going to do. I wanted to put it on a stick and make it a plant decoration but I didn't have any. 

So I decided on creating a junk journal page. I've never made one before and I don't have a whole lot on the page as I wanted the sunflower to be the center of attention but I'm loving the way it turned out for my very first try.

How I created this:

Step 1: Cut out desired shape from solid colored cardstock of choice. Next you'll choose another color or patterned paper to back the flower. Adhere them together and trim around edges.

Step 2: Use either distress ink in vintage photo or another brown you have on hand and add it to the image to give a little texture.

Step 3: Use the same brown ink on a 8 1/2 x 11" piece of white cardstock. 

Step 4: adhere the large cut out image to the left hand side of your page and trim off extras. You can then add some of the extra pieces to the corners as I did.

Step 5: Choose your embellishments. I used Robin's Nest dew drops and  two stamp sets from CLOSE TO MY HEART and fussy cut out the images once I stamped them. 

SUPPLIES: 

Robin's Nest Dew Drops: Winter retreat dew drops, dark vanilla dew drops & chocolate dew drops

Stamp sets: Close To My Heart

Ink: nectarine, fern, ruby, glacier, and archival black (Close To My Heart), vintage photo distress oxide ink

Cardstock: orange, mustard, and white

THANKS FOR STOPPING BY!!
