Hi, Elle’s friends! It’s me, Sarah, hosting today’s blog post, and I’m excited to be sharing a 12 x 12-inch layout that I created using the August 2022 kit and add-ons! I felt inspired to document photos of one of my daughters with our pup. She thought it would be fun to “read” a book to our dog.

Supplies | August 2022 Kit, Basic Grid 4 x 6 inch Journaling Tags, Fuschia Jane Alphabet Cardstock Stickers, Lost in a Good Book Cardstock Stickers, A Good Book Stamp, Basic Shapes Stamp – Outline
You don’t have to be a pocket page scrapbooker to use Elle’s Studio kits. I used the 3 x 4-inch tags to mat my photos. I love that it functions as a frame for photos, and it’s a quick and easy way to make your pictures stand out from the rest of your project.

I also thought that the Basic Grid 4 x 6 inch Journaling Tags would be a fun embellishment for my layout. Instead of using it as a journaling tag, I colored some of the star tags with ink and used them as a die cut.

The book stickers on the Lost in a Good Book Cardstock Stickers made a perfect fit for this reading layout too. I layered them on top of the Basic Grid 4 x 6 inch Journaling Tags to create a fun embellishment cluster.

I used the A Good Book Stamp to create a contrast on my white cardstock. I stamped the “Book of the Month” stamp in random spots to create an artsy look to my page. I love that stamps are a great way to create your own patterned papers.

Lastly, for my title, I kept it simple by using the Fuschia Jane Alphabet Cardstock Stickers. I love how the colors stand out from the white cardstock.

That’s all for today, friends! We’d love to see your projects featuring the August 2022 kit and add-ons. Join us and share your projects with us at our Elle’s Studio Facebook Group or on Instagram using the hashtag #EllesStudio.
And as always, thanks for reading and letting me share my work here. It’s always a pleasure to be making pretty things with Elle’s!
