Creating with Claire using the September Main kit

 laire Hawkins: September 2024 Main Kit

Hello and welcome back to the My Creative Scrapbook Blog!

Today I’m sharing a colorful rainbow layout with you which was so much fun to make!

I selected 5 patterned papers from the kit – pink, red, orange, yellow and green and set about drawing a rainbow which had been inspired from one of the rainbow images in the cut apart papers included in the kit.

I didn’t quite draw a complete rainbow because I knew I wanted my photographs to sit an the bottom right edge.

I distressed the edges of each piece and adhered them to the center of my layout using foam.

Next, I double mounted my photos using a bold striped paper that pulls all the colors of the collection together, and the black and white stripe – helpful in grounding the layout and providing some separation from all the color.

I lay these, slightly overlapped, at the bottom of the layout and used stickers and ephemera to create the floral clusters.

The Sunshine title and coloured word stickers are also from the sticker pack, along with the cute purple camera.

For my main title, I created a large cluster on the left arch of the rainbow. I added the Reasons to Smile sticker on foam to create extra dimension, and finished it off with a few more florals from the ephemera and sticker packs.

And with that, the page was finished.

I love how the bold bright colors sit against clean crisp white cardstock, and I hope it’s given you some inspiration to get creative today.

Until next time, happy scrapping!
