Welcome back. I am at 3 out 100 layouts! I better pick up the pace if I want to reach my goal since January is almost over! I should have started off small, at least 50 layouts!
Oh well, I already started this project already - I will not quit now!
Do you guys remember this Studio Calico kit?

I fell in love with Studio Calico Project Life kit. It was their February kit from a year or two ago and I loved it so much that I bought two more whenever they had their Black Friday sale!
Do you see the wood veneer piece in the photo? It's a 4x6 wood veneer piece with a lot of creative spaces, different sizes and plenty of options!
With my kit, and the additional two I purchased I ended up with three of these wood veneer pieces. As I cleaning out my project life Raskog, I found this wood veneer piece and I just knew that my next layout would be centered around this wood veneer piece.
I started with this old patterned paper from Studio Calico that I had in my stash. I've really been into using my stash lately. I purchased a few collections here and there, but this year I really want to scrap my stash.
I grabbed an assortment of patterned papers, from Pink Paislee's Cie La Vie to My Mind's Eye Fancy That. I cut a ton of little pieces and back the entire wood veneer piece with it, even though I knew some would be blocked by the photo. I've had those vellum and transparency flowers and leaves for a very long time... I might actually have some more in my stash.
Since the wood veneer piece would be my focal point, I made sure everything was centered around it. Behind the wood veneer, I placed two doilies, one white and one gold opposite each other. I created three of the flower clusters around the wood veneer. I added a small tag for my date and journaling, and I added white thickers for my title since there was so much color around the photo.
For my photo, I backed it with some patterned paper just to separate it from the wood veneer piece.
To finish it off, I wrote my journaling and dated the layout.
That was it! A little bit more work, but way worth it!
Until next time,
