Goal Getter | Step-By-Step My Creative Scrapbook | July Creative Kit

Hello friends! Today I'm sharing my step-by-step for this layout I created for My Creative Scrapbook using the July Creative kit. 

I wanted to scrap these two photos of my youngest son and because of the bright colors of his shirt this kit was absolutely perfect! 

This is the layout I created:

First I displayed the kit on my scrap table:

Next I decided on a "round" design and therefore needed something round to trace and found this plate:

I traced the plate with a pencil and cut out the circle, which I then placed on a sheet of white cardstock:

Next I cut three rectangles and placed these on top of the circle:

Next up were the fabulous puffy words:

These words were perfect to arrange around the circle:

I decided I wanted a patterned paper below the white cardstock, so I cut off approx. 1 cm on all sides and adhered the cardstock on a sheet of light blue pattered paper, called "April Showers". 

Of course the layout needed some machine stitching: 

I stitched both on the patterned papers as well on all 4 sides of the layout:

Next I placed the two photos on the rectangles in the middle of the circle. I wrote some journaling beneath and added a couple of die-cuts & stickers (which I changed again later-on):

After adding a few drops of paint I was done! Hope you like it! 

Here are a couple of close-up shots:
