15 Minute Layout With Tracy!

 These days I know many of us are stretched so thin, and rarely get the chance to sit down and craft like we'd like. So I thought I would start sharing a 15 minute layout each month. A complete tutorial on how to create a simple, yet eye catching layout in just 15 minutes. You might not have hours and hours each week to scrapbook, but you MIGHT be able to set aside 15 minutes with a fabulous kit! First off, normally I ink all of the edges of my patterned layers. But for this layout I didn't do the inking.
  1. I used the light patterned polka dot patterned paper as my background. I then added an 8.5x11 sheet of navy cardstock to the left hand side of the layout.
  2. Cut a strip of the pink pattern that is 1.5x10.5 and flag one end. Adhere this to the left hand side of the navy cardstock.
  3. Cut the yellow patterned paper to 6x6 and adhere on top the the pink pattern you just added.
  4. Mat your photo in cream, navy and cream cardstock again. Adhere to the layout using 3D foam dots.
  5. Now to simply embellish. I added a photo tab to the right of the photo. A die cut to the left of the photo. I added my title below the yellow patterned paper.
Easy as that, you have a layout finished!
