Simply the Best – Layout by Jen Burns

Hello everyone,
Today I have a layout of my gorgeous Kyden, we have a little ritual of after every haircut he has, I get to take a photo.

First I started with the Solids #1 paper and cut out a circle from the middle of the back before using it as a border piece. I have then cut a circle frame which I have machine stitched and added the reverse light blue paper onto a chipboard piece to add layers to the page. I have then cut the Peaceful Notions paper to 11.5 x 11.5 distressing edges of both papers, then adding some machine stitching around the edges.

Look at the amazing leaves in the laser cut set ! I shaped them using a mouse pad and a pen then added liquid scrap dots behind them to keep the form then layered them over the top of each other.

Lots and Lots of layers have been achieved with ephemera and laser cut pieces. I have added the washi tape to a piece of card and torn the pieces adding them to the layers. Two of the ephemera pieces I have put through my big shot with a Star embossing folder inking the edges.

Using chipboard pieces I have layered three of the arrow pieces topped with the book plate and the title “Simply the Best” and cute little laser cut button.
He is one of the BEST things in my life and brings lots of happiness and joy to so many.

The chipboard tag has been embellished with the ironwork key and some winged things.

I have used the “Best” from the 12×12 Sentiments rub-ons onto a white piece of cardstock and fussy cut it out as to make it stand out by adding tape underneath to layer it. I have then added some more of the amazing leaf laser cuts layered across the bottom.
