Bubbly

Ah, bubbly summer layouts! They just make me so happy. These pictures where so bright and colorful, so I wanted to find a paper that went with that feeling. I found this adorable double-sided polka-dotted paper in my scrap stash. (It had no markings on it, so I have no idea who makes it.) The green pattern on the individual circles is the backside. 

I originally had everything on a yellow patterned background. But when I started laying out all the papers and the pictures, it all looked so overwhelming. I replaced the yellow background with a white one and this seemed to let the patterns really pop. However, a new problem arose. All the papers seemed to disappear. So, I put a black edge around all of it. It really gave the colors a great base.

Fantastic layout Tiffany, I love how you used the white background and the black behind the patterned papers. As you say it really makes the papers pop. The pictures are just too cute.
I'm so glad that you have joined us at Let's Scrap and I look forward to seeing what you can do with our sketches.
