Hey Newbies, I'm up on the blog doing a double page layout featuring these super awesome and funny BEER FRIENDS epoxy flairs from Scrappin Happy Studio!
She featured these in her new release last month and I just had to have them for this layout. I was super excited to see them because I have been wanting to do this layout for a little while now. I will list the items I used at the bottom of this blog.
I'm also going to let you in on a little secret...I ran out of the perfect, summer time, drink time paper I've ever seen (retired paper from Stamping Up!) and I was so bummed out but was able to coordinate some other papers for the 2nd page and it worked out perfect!
Ok, first of all this is how it all starts in my head: I pull so much stuff from my stash and then I go from there. It either works or I set it aside and pull from the remaining pile. I mean, when I start on a layout I pull about half my stash (or at least the stuff that goes with the theme of the layout).
For the 1st layout, I started off with a piece of 12 x 12 bright blue card stock from a paper pad I had. I added some awesome summer time paper from Stamping Up! called Bubble and Fizz (unfortunately it is retired 😑). I love all of the bright colors and fun bottles! 
I printed the photos 3" x 2" and then backed them with 2 of the papers from the Bubble and Fizz collection. I decided to use the 4 photos in a stacked way to show kind of a action flow to it. I used 1/2 a page of the green bottled paper from the Bubble and Fizz collection and then used my very last piece of the big colorful bottled paper, from the Bubble and Fizz collection, using the tear technique. I laid it over the bottle paper, and then added the last strip of yellow and white paper that I had, behind it (guys, this is why I keep ALL of my scraps). I added a torn 12 x 2" fizzy green paper from the same collection and then I had just enough of the small bright colored bottle paper left to do a 4 x 2" piece poking out to give it a pop of color.
I found some really cool chipboard stickers that had lemons and a SQUEEZE scripted word which was perfect for her puckered lemon face😂. I also found an epoxy word LAUGH and a sticker of a girl in sunglasses. All of these went perfect with the pictures and of course that BEER MODE ON epoxy from Scrappin Happy Studio! I managed to find a puffy sticker black palm tree and added that. I had the VACA word in white and backed it on some of the same bright blue card stock that I used for the layout.
I had some foam alphas (thanks to an awesome crafty friend) and spelled out the word MODE and backed it with a piece of the fizzy green paper in the collection, and gave it a little tear action at the top just to blend it in. The title I cut from a cut apart sheet I had, backing it with the fizzy green paper and a strip of yellow to tie it all together and added another LIVE, LOVE, BEER epoxy flair from Scrappin Happy Studio! That finishes the 1st page of this 2 page layout.
The 2nd page I didn't have all of the same papers from that collection so I had to improvise. I did have the green bottle paper so I measured it and lined it up with the first page. Instead of the bright colored bottle paper that I tore and laid on top I was able to find a bright colored camera paper and did the same tear technique and adhered it to the green paper. I also didn't have any more of the yellow and white paper so I used a strip of the side 2 of the green bottle paper (which was the fabulous reddish/pink with white swirly lines and some green dots). I also didn't have any more of that cool small bright bottle paper so I used the same size (approximately) of the bright camera paper. I was able to find the I LOVE THIS PLACE puffy sticker from the same collection as the palm tree and used that. The pineapple chip board came from the same collection as the SQUEEZE scripted word as did the JUST CHILLIN! I used the epoxy HAPPY word and TOGETHER word (both coming from the same collection as the LAUGH word) and found this awesome green GOOD TIMES WITH GOOD FRIENDS sticker as well as the I'M FEELIN IT sticker. The FUN MEMORIES came from the same collection as the palm tree and the cool beach jeep was from a stash from 2008!!! Lastly, the WILD SIDE round chipboard sticker is from a collection called Jungle Safari (just sayin, just because it came in a collection of safari animals doesn't mean you have to use it for that😬).
