THINK IN CIRCLES

Design by Vicki Boutin

Kit Materials
a 10x10-1/2" piece of multicolor striped paper
b 9-1/2x10-1/4" piece of light blue floral paper
c 4-1/4x1-1/2" piece and 4" circle of green polka-dot paper
d 3" circle and 2-1/2" circle of yellow swirl paper
e rectangle chipboard accent
f round rub-ons
g red bird rub-on

Additional Materials
h full sheet of 12x12" light blue cardstock
i 5-1/4x7-1/4" piece and strips of white cardstock
j 3-1/4x2-1/4" piece and two 2-1/4x3-1/4" pieces of pink cardstock
k stamps, gems, buttons

1. Build the background. On a 12x12" sheet of light blue cardstock h, mount a flush with the bottom. Layer b on a and add stitches around three sides. (Vicki stamped her stitches, but a machine-sewn or rub-on stitches would work, too.) Stamp flowers and butterflies on b.

2. Place your photos. Mat a 5x7" photo on white cardstock i and angle it in the upper left corner. Mat three smaller photos on pink cardstock j and attach it as Vicki did in the lower right corner.

3. Embellish. Apply round rub-ons f to the circle of c and larger circle of d and add them to the layout as Vicki did, trimming the excesses off the bottom. Apply a red bird rub-on g to the smaller circle of d and mount it on the right side; then layer the piece of c on top. Place gems k on chipboard accent e. Center and attach e on top of c to create the title. Add red buttons k and attach journaling strips diagonally.
