Use Your Paper Stash Tutorial | Jamie Waters

First, I gathered the papers I wanted to use and arranged them in a loose rainbow fashion. I ended up with way more papers than I had space for so I had to weed some out. Tough decisions!

Next I glued them down to my leftover piece of colored cardstock. (I often said to myself as I was pulling papers, I can't believe I have more of this paper left, I loved it!) So I was surprised and happy to find this full sheet of mint cardstock.

Next was the trimming of strips.

Since my rainbow was so nice and colorful, I chose my photo mat to coordinate with my background cardstock.

Next I tucked in those color theory die cut labels into the top of my photo. I decided to keep the bottom of my photo area mint colored so the layout wouldn't be too all over the place.

I added the shine sticker and stamped the heart image+text nearby. Adding some diecuts, flair and other stickers near my photo were my next steps.

I handwrote my journaling and then I was done.
