You Are The Sweetest || Step-by-step tutorial for My Creative Scrapbook

Hello friends! I'm here today with another step-by-step tutorial I wrote for one the layouts I created for the kit club My Creative Scrapbook with the awesome March Creative Kit. I adore the Kid at Heart collection from Pebbles Inc. that is included in this kit. A few years ago I was on the DT of Pebbles Inc, so this kit was right up my alley! 

This is the layout for which I wrote my step-by-step instructions: 


As usual I started with displaying the contents of the kit on my work surface. All the sheets are double sided and I had a hard choosing which side to use. And this kit contains so many embellishments!!



For the background of my layout I chose the "Scatter Happiness" paper and applied a layer of white gesso on top, using one of the hotel cards I never throw away:


In my stash I keep an old book from which I use the pages for my layouts (I had a few copies of this book so I had no difficulty tearing this one up).


I tore out approx. six sheets and using a heart punch I punched rows of hearts from the six sheets in one go: 


Using the negatives of my punching exercise and my sewing machine I stitched the strips of book paper on my layout:


I cut one of this month's free cut files (called Flower Cluster) twice from one of the patterned papers, called "Get Your Happy On" and placed one on the right side of my page and one on the left side: 


I matted the photo of my son sitting on a sleigh in the snow looking up at me and placed this on cut out flowers on my layout:


Now I had the difficult task to find the right embellishments in this enormous pile of super cute die-cuts (I wanted to use them all!):


When I had finished adding my embellishments I wrote a few lines of journaling and I was done!


I really love the result! Hope you do too! Thank you so much for stopping by the blog today! I hope I've been able to inspire you to give this kit a try (don't forget to share if you do!)! 

Here's a photo of the March Creative Kit I used:
