Hey all! I've got my first layout as an official design team member over on the Jillibean Soup blog today. I used the Farmhouse Stew collection to scrap our family photo we took this past Thanksgiving.
I knew I'd be keeping part of my background white, so I picked out a background cut file to layer over that part of the page. Jillibean Soup has a TON of awesome cut files in the Silhouette store. I thought the woodgrain background cut file would go well with the patterned papers and our photo.
I cut the entire backgroun from white cardstock, and then trimmed it in half, since I only needed half of it for my layout. I've got the other half saved, as it can be used on another project.
I also used one of their cut files for part of my title, die cutting "family" from the brown woodgrain patterned paper. I paired it with the Farmhouse Stew die cut alphas to complete my title.
I picked out several patterned papers to coordinate with my die cut alphas, and cut a 12" wide strip of each paper to arrange along the bottom half of the page. I love this 3x4" "sweet" cut-apart card from one of the sheets of patterned papers, and played around until I found a good way to add it to the page.
The Pea Pod Parts - die cuts - were out of stock for this collection, so I went looking for some other embellishments that I could add in. I decided to use some of Jillibean's stamps, and loved this simple flower stamp from the Flower: Bloom stamp and die set. I stamped the flowers using brown ink, on white cardstock, and fussy cut each one out.
I then added a little round puffy sticker to the center of each stamped flower. I love simple embellishments, and these worked out perfectly.
Great layout!!!

Beautiful! What is the font you used for the word “family”? I can’t find it on the website. Thanks!
