I hope everyone is having a good weekend so far, hopefully tucked up in the warm somewhere....

I was cutting out some journalling shapes the other day on my Cameo and when I had removed them all from the card it occurred to me that maybe I could use the bit left behind on a layout. So armed with some pretty papers from the Authentique Gathering range I set about filling the gaps with papers and photos. As I only needed very tiny pictures I printed some small photos using the mosaic function on Picasa.


Some of the photos and papers are adhered directly to the frames and the others I stuck to the base paper to add a different dimension. Behind the whole thing is a lot of foam tape!



I cut my title from kraft card using my cutting machine and added some journalling printed onto small strips of paper. If you don't have a cutting machine you could do something similar with a circle cutter (or a craft knife and a steady hand) which would look good too.
