Hello Pinkfresh Friends, Karlla here and I'm so happy with my new project. The new monthly challenge is currently underway here at Pinkfresh, and I’m excited to share my take on it with you. I simply loved the proposed "Beautiful Backgrounds" challenge! For the challenge, I used a mix of 'Ordinary Joys' and 'Fresh Start'.

Step-by-Step Instructions: 

1. Cut the green paper 11x11".
2. With a white cardstock, cut it a little smaller than the green paper you used earlier.
3. Stack one on top of the other and make a white stitch around it to give it a finish.
4. stick this base created on the plaid paper from the 'Ordinary Joys' collection with double-sided tape.
5. With the 'Puffy Alpha Stickers from Ordinary Joys and Fresh Start,' add the title 'You are my everything' and the mix of letters from the alphabets at the top of the layout, as the base for the photos.
6. With the circle paper, cut out some of them and add them with foam tape to the top base.
7. add the photo with higher foam tape layers to create depth.
8. Around the photo, stick the 'Chipboard Flair and Cardstock Stickers' to give more embellishment.
9. Finish with a detail at the bottom of the layout with an overlay of a yellow tag 'Chipboard Phrase Stickers Ordinary Joys and Cardstock Stickers Fresh Start'

I hope this project has inspired you to try this background technique and create scrapbook layouts full of personality. With a few die cuts, alphabet letters, and a beautiful mix of colors, you can transform a simple page into a unique composition that highlights your photos and the stories they tell.

Thank you so much for stopping by today and taking the time to check out this project. I hope it has sparked new ideas and inspired you to create meaningful and creative layouts of your own.
