Simply Fundamental Blog Hop

Have you heard about the Simply Fundamental Scrapbooking bundle this month?  Close To My Heart is offering an album of your choice, the Enchantment Paper Fundamentals paper pack, the Enchantment Fundamentals stickers, a Peacock Fundamentals assortment, three sheets of White Daisy card stock, AND free page protectors!  The Fundamentals line is so cool because one side features a clear embossed design and the other side features the same design in white.  Two looks for one paper!  My blog hop consultant group was so excited that we're featuring the Paper Fundamentals to show how amazing these papers and this offer are!  (If you're already hopping then you've arrived here from Gina B.'s blog.  From here, you'll click to go to Jennifer D.'s blog next.)

When the bundle was announced last month, I fortunately had a pack of the Enchantment Paper Fundamentals already, so I printed off the five-page workshop guide and got to work.  I had tons of fun one Saturday morning cutting and creating my layouts!  Here's what my floor looked like: I placed the base pages in order for layouts 1-5 and then as I cut the various pieces, I placed them in the correct layout pile.  Easy peasy!

Don't be afraid to customize the layout guide to fit your photos.  Because I had already selected this layout for my chorus concert photos, instead of using the four small squares on the right side layout that the guide suggests, I did not cut those piece of Peacock Fundamentals (which means more scraps for other projects- COMING SOON!).

Because I don't have the Fundamentals assortment that come in the bundle (yet), I used my School Years and Geek Is Chic stamp sets along with my Cricut alphabet stamp set to embellishment my layout.  Some blue enamel gems and gold sequins added a little sparkle.

Two of the five already have pictures on them, and I have big plans for the scraps.  I'll be sharing more this month, so come back often.  Before you hop off to the next stop, I'd love for you to leave a comment.  Thanks!  Go check out Jennifer's project next!
