Hello everyone! Kerstin here today with a Scrapbooking layout inspiration!

I was inspired by October's theme: Texture & Shine. You'll usually find texture/layers in my layouts, and for the Shine, I chose Glitter Cardstock and Jewels.

I used the colors blue and pink from the wonderful Lovely Lane Collection!

Step-by-Step-Instructions

1. Cut 2 diamonds measuring 4 x 5 inches from patterned cardstock.

2. Cut 1 diamond measuring 6 x 7 inches from white cardstock.

3. Glue all diamonds on top of each other using 3D foam.

4. Place a photo of your choice on the top diamond.

5. Punch out leaves using the Curvy Leaves Die from white Cardstock and Midnight Navy Glitter Cardstock and arrange them to the left and right of the patterned cardstock.

6. Decorate with various Embellishments, such as Heart & Stars Ephemera, Layered Stickers, Puffy Stickers.

7. Cut out a few small leaves from the leftovers patterned Cardstock and arrange them.

8. Use Jewels for Glitter/Shine accents. I used Stargazer and Glacier.

9. Place your title at the top right using Mini Alphabet Stickers in white. 

10. To showcase the layout, I cut the white cardstock to 10 1/2 x 10 1/2 inches and glued it onto 12 x 12 inches of white cardstock with 3D foam.

I'm already excited to see what you'll ceate for the October Challenge.

Thanks for stopping by! I hope you like it and my Scrapbooking layout inspires you!

See you next time! Kerstin xx
