Happiness is Homemade – Layout by Michelle Lee

Hello, 49 and Market fans!

I am sharing my first layout using the gorgeous Cottagecore collection. It’s full of beautiful green hues and the image details are simply stunning. With the holidays right around the corner it’s the perfect collection to get those photos of family spending time cooking or around the table.

For my layout I chose the B side of the Moments paper. I started by using the frames from the Cottagecore Die-cut Elements pack to frame my photos then mounted them on thin cardboard for dimension. To build my design I took a larger frame, mounted on thin cardboard as well, and layered it with a cabinet piece also from the Die-cut Elements pack. I then adhered the framed photos, tucking a tag and ticket above as well as below the smaller frames.

I started building my clusters around the frames with different pieces from the Cottagecore Lasercut Kitchen Edition. For the flowers I chose the Royal Spray in Ivory and Royal Posies in Olive, tucking a few of the Elements among the flowers.

Finally I went around the design using the Cottagecore Rub-on Transfer Set and the Cottagecore Kitchen Edition Rub-on Transfer Set. I love the way they brought everything together.
