It's All in the Details with Craft Happy!

I am in love with the new Craft Happy paper packet. I have a lot to show you the next few days with Craft Happy, and I am going to give you all the instructions on how to make everything, too!

Whether you knit, crochet, sew, draw, or scrapbook, we have you covered with Craft Happy! Let's take a look at the first page.

Step 1: Use Navy cardstock for the base of the layout. Gut a 10” square from the center of the base.

Step 2: Cut a piece of Bright White cardstock to measure 11½” x 11½”.  Adhere to center of base sheet.  Doodle around the edge using black journaling pen.  Create dots with pen.

Step 3: From the Mat paper pack, cut the following:

·      (2) Scissors border at 1” x 10”

·      (3) Yellow Buttons paper at ½” x 10”

·      (2) Green Squiggles paper at ½” x 10”

·      (1) Cross Stitch border at ¾” x 10”

·      (1) Diagonal Stripe border at ¼” x 10”

·      (1) Diagonal Stripe border at ½” x 10”

Step 4:  Starting with the Scissors border strip, adhere 1” from the bottom and 3” from left edge.  In the following order, place to the right of the first border.  Yellow Buttons, Green Squiggles, ¼” Diagonal Stripe, Cross Stitch, Yellow Buttons, Scissors, ½” Diagonal Stripe, Green Squiggles, and Yellow Buttons.

Step 5: Cut two 4” circles from Red Plaid paper.  Use the smallest circle and the red cutting blade.  Place top circle ¾” from the top and 1½” from the left edge of the page.  Place the bottom circle 2¾” from the bottom and 1½” from the right edge.  Add vellum embellishments to the circles.

Step 6: Cut one 4¼” x 6¼” photo mats from Navy cardstock.  Using foam squares place the mat 3¼” from the bottom and 4” from left edge of the page. 

Step 7: Journal as desired.
