Sweet Swim | Rebecca Meadows

Morning and thank you for taking a look at my layout.

For my layout today, I have used a combination of the amazing Bramble Fox products. My title and the circular etched frame are from the July fox box, I have used paper snips #019, cameras from May's Fox box and the circle templates.

I began this layout by using the circle templates, which are available in the shop to size and cut out my circles.

I used a paper distress tool to 'rough' up the edges of the circles as I feel this gives a bit of definition. I matted my Photos and began to create a middle cluster.

I was able to overlap my photos and still keep the image in view which gave me more space on my A4 layout to add more detail.

I fussycut lots of yellow flowers and leaves from snips number 19.

I made a small slit in the two larger circles and again used a paper distress on the edges, I then put a piece of plain coloured paper behind each of the tears to add a little pop of colour.

I added the flowers, butterflies and tucked in the etched frame.

Next I started to put together the lower cluster. This is where I wanted my title to go. I cut out two more circles, distressed the edges and added more for secret flowers from snips number 19. The cameras that I have used are from the mae box box. If you don't already subscribe to the Fox box, it is definitely worth a look. You will get the products before anyone else by subscribing, and the great thing is that from one month to the next products match and can be used together.

I added my title and used some mini alpha stickers to make the title read sweet swim.

I added a strip of colour to the top and the bottom of my layout, as I felt there was too much white space. I made a slit in the green paper at the bottom and tucked the circle into it so that it looks like the circles are melting away off the page.

Now, I just had the finishing touches to do. I searched through my collection of heart perspextives to find some lime green ones and added these around. I also wanted to add a little bit more green, so I had a look through my paper snips for anything that was lime green, and had suitable writing on for my layout. This is one of the great things about paper snips, Morag includes lots of great wording and different colours, so it's easy to match up with a variety of layouts.

Thank you for reading all about my layout, please head over to the Bramble Fox friends Facebook group where you find lots of inspiration and all of the latest product information.
