Welcome to the BasicGrey Soleil Blog Hop! You should have arrived here from the blog of Shannon Tidwell.
The bright, unapologetic hues of light dancing through the atmosphere, refracted from a prism or reflecting off the water are captured in Soleil, a collaborative collection by BasicGrey and Sassafras. This line is both serene and invigorating with its harvested-from-the-earth fruit and flower colors like soft lavender, juicy peach, tangerine, blueberry juice and watermelon. Let its calming yet spirited nature inspire your creative soul.
To me the Soleil collection just screams summer. It is perfect for scrapping all those typical and not so typical summer activities. For this layout I chose one of the pictures I took last week when my kids were chalking outside. I used the Citrus paper for my background (I absolutely love its layered and eclectic look) and just added some strips of patterned papers and embellishments.
I was instantly in love with the Layered Stickers from this collection. The flowers are gorgeous. And this camper must be the cutest thing I’ve ever seen, I couldn’t resist using it on my layout.
