Scrapbook & Cards Today Blog: 7:00 pm iNSD with Vicki Boutin!

Good Life By Emily Pitts

Hello friends, Vicki Boutin here with you for this hour! I love that Emily’s layout is simple and clean with the title work and photos taking center stage. Love it! The block style in the design made me think of pocket style inspired products like 3x4, 4x4 and 4x6 cards. So I gathered up my supplies and this is what I came up with!

The other thing that really caught my eye on Emily’s Layout was the use of the “good Life” transparency. I totally grabbed that idea and added the balloon element!!

Love this “Beach Day” line from Carta Bella and the 3x4 Journaling card with the pineapple “selfie” was perfect for my page!

Thanks to Emily for inspiring my page with such a bright and fun layout (love the car, too!). Happy National Scrapbook Day to all of you! I hope you find some time today to get your craft on!!! ~ Vicki Boutin
