Love This | Sunkissed Collection | Laura Alberts

Hey y’all! Laura here with a super sweet and silly 9×12 layout of my darling daughter when she was a toddler, playing happily in her water table. These photos were so bright and fun, I knew they would work beautifully with the Cocoa Vanilla Studio Sunkissed collection! Using some punched and cut circles to create a vertical background design, I set my photos in a stair-step pattern so that I could fit all four of them on this smaller sized layout!

Around each of the photos, I added a cluster of embellishments. On the top photo, I used fussy cut florals, citrus fruits, and a “sweet memories” banner from the ephemera pack. On the second photo, I added a small scene with two palm trees and the sun, love this cluster around the title the most! It’s perfect for these sun-filled summer photos! In any awkward spaces, I added tiny florals to fill them in.

On the bottom two photos, I kept the embellishing minimal because I’d added a circle-cut journaling spot out of the pocket cards and tucked it in on top of a bold blue circle from the background. So, some tiny florals were all it needed to feel finished. As always, I dotted gold Nuvo drops around the page and then splattered with gold inks spray for the finishing touch! Loved playing with circles for this one!

I hope this layout inspires you to try a bright, summer color palette for your next layout! To see how “Love This” came together, check out the process video below!
