Up Close and Personal with Jenny!!

Hey everyone! Jenny here with a few little tidbits about one of the layouts I created with the September TSR kit!

It's back-to-school time around here. My youngest just started Kindergarten (and mama did NOT do well with that!), and my oldest just started 3rd grade. When I saw the colors of the American Crafts "Amy Tangerine" line, I just knew I had to use it for these recently snapped pictures of my son's first day of school!


When I saw the stamp add-on, I definitely knew I was going to scrap these pictures! This stamp is so adorable, and so perfect for those back-to-school pages. I simply added a punched scalloped circle with one of the included stickers on top and outlined them both with a brown pen:


And how lovely are these fabric letter stickers?! I love these and want a pack in every color. hehehe


Lastly, I did a little "dissection" with one of the dimensional stickers in my kit. It originally said "hello friend," but I cut off the "friend" part to where it only said "hello" and added it to the beginning of my title:


If your embellishments aren't working for you, don't be afraid to change them into something that works! Sometimes, all it takes is a little snip with the scissors. ;)

Thanks for looking...you are going to LOOOOOVE the new lines and all of the extra embellishments in September's kit!
