Mr. Smarty layout by Leanne Allinson
I wanted to create a layout about my son's success at school and I knew that the Jillibean Soup | Irish Farm House full alphabet set, would make a great background. However, I didn't want to use the clear alphabet stamp letters individually, but rather the entire sheet as a whole stamp. To achieve this I simply kept the individual letters on the clear packaging backing sheet and mounted it onto a wet acrylic block. The water, applied with a small, round paint brush on the acrylic block, was sufficient to keep the stamp image in place while I created my layout background.
Supplies:
Hampton Art:
stamps: Jillibean Soup | Irish Farm House Soup (jb0014); Echo Park | Bundle of Joy: Boy (SC0527)
ink: Archival Ink (Jet Black); Colorbox | Turtle
paper: Jillibean Soup | Soup Staples II, Sight Seeing Stew
Jillibean Soup: Pea Pod Parts
other: white cardstock, typewriter, foam tape.
Cute photo! I like the elements grouped around it and the great journaling below.
