Lovely Lane Inspiration: Circles & Twists for Added Dimension | Susi Becerra

14 Oct 2025 0 Comments

Hello Pinkfresh Studio fans! It's Susi here again on the Pinkfresh Studio blog. Today I’m bringing you a brand-new inspirational project made with the Lovely Lane collection.

This time, I’ve created a 12x12 layout featuring overlapping circles connected by twisted paper strips, adding a dynamic and dimensional effect that brings the whole design to life!

Step-by-Step Instructions

Select your papers: Choose your favorite patterned papers from the Lovely Lane 6"x8" paper stack. Group them by color tones or themes that coordinate with your photos.
Cut the circles: Die cut circles in various sizes using the Stitched Scallop Circle Die Set (small size works perfectly for the largest circles on the layout).
Create (5) clusters: Arrange (5) groups of circles on a 12"x12" white cardstock base. Layer and overlap them to add interest and dimension.
Add photos and embellishments: Decorate each cluster with photos, flowers, and embellishments from the Lovely Lane collection—Chipboard, Puffy Stickers, Ephemera, Cardstock Stickers, and Journaling Bits.
Connect the circles: Cut paper strips about ¾" wide. Twist and shape each strip, then glue them between circles to create that beautiful “spiral” or “ribbon” effect connecting your clusters.
Add your title: Place your title in the center of the page using Puffy Alphas and Mini Alphabet Stickers from the collection.
Finishing touches: Complete your layout with Enamel Dots or add a few watercolor splatters for a light, playful look.

Quick Tips:

• Use 3D foam adhesive under each circle to create layers and space for the twisted paper strips and embellishments.

• For variation, try making rosettes instead of circles or use different geometric shapes—the chipboard hexagons from the collection would be perfect for this design!

Thanks so much for stopping by! See you next time with more creative inspiration.
