I still have a few more Bella Blvd projects from CHA to share, so I thought I would try and knock those out this week. Not that I have a ton of other things to share. Lol. But I did just print out some photos and am hoping to squeeze in some layouts just for fun.

This is another one of my layouts using the new Daily Chevies & Everyday Bits collection. As I was browsing thru some photos from my friend Krista, these photos of her youngest daughter, Emily, caught my eye. Her outfit was the perfect match for the patterned papers that I had in mind. Her cute black and white striped dress, the pink boots, and her fun green knit hat. Plus, she's just an adorable little girl, and that's all the reason I needed to scrap some more photos of her!
The white and grey triangle pattern makes a great background paper. I cut four strips of the black star patterned paper and adhered it around the edges of the page (a great paper saving trick that I have shared before HERE).
I knew I wanted to add a few feathers to the layout, so I picked out a green, pink, and black feather. I layered them together and tucked them under the chevron paper strips, stapling the bottoms to secure them in place. I added a chipboard heart and the crochet heart to help hide the staples.
I hand cut a few chevron pieces from the green and pink chevy patterned papers. I wanted a light and dark row from each, so I left them together as I cut. I then cut one black chevron from the black and white chevron patterned paper and positioned it between the green and pink rows.
The arrow stickers are a fun addition to the Daily Chevies collection, and they come in four colors. I used a few of the green and pink arrows beside my title.
The journaling card is a 3x4" card from the backside of one of the chevron papers. It actually has an aqua geotag in the upper left corner, which I covered up with the grey crochet heart. I machine stitched around the outside edge of the journaling card before adhering it to the page. I then finished off the page with lots of threaded buttons in coordinating colors.
And speaking of the new Bella collections, they are available HERE, if you've been looking for them :)
Another great layout, Laura! Love how you're cutting apart the chevies paper! Looks amazing!
