American Crafts is well known for their bright colors and timelessly designed patterned papers, which is the theme for this week!
The first project is a fabulous layout by Sarah de Guzman:
Supplies: 12x12 Cardstock Salmon (71462) – AC
Cardstock, Honeydew Hop Paper (35088) – Dear Lizzy, Golden Gleam Paper (35090) – Dear Lizzy,
Humble Honeybee Paper (35094) – Dear Lizzy, Lively (89288) – Ribbon, Fancy
(42706) – Remarks, Bliss Coffee (53030) – Thickers, Bliss Accents Coffee (53034) –
Thickers
Sarah shares, "Patterned paper has so much versatility, so I wanted to show off the different patterns of the Dear Lizzy line. I punched out circles with a few sheets of patterned paper to create a background for my photo. Then, I embellished on top of my circles with chipboard and stickers to add that extra pizazz to my page."
What a great way to showcase lots of different patterns on one layout - thanks for sharing Sarah!














Super cute! I love pink. Thank you Sarah, for the inspiration!
