scrapbook layouts: close knit

Hi there! I'm back with a couple layouts that I made with Crate Paper's new Close Knit collection. This is such a cute line with beautiful colors and lots of really great embellishments. I especially love the wood veneer shapes! 

The first layout documents a road trip we took a few days before school started. I used a collage so that I could include lots of iphone photos from that day. This collage is part of a collection of collages that you can download for free at GingerPixel. They require Photoshop or PSE. If you don't have either of those programs you could use a phone app like Pic Collage or PicFrame to make your own collages.

The first is a layout with a photo of Alec that I took right before he started his senior year. I used the Pebbles alpha roller stamp that was included in the Double Scoop Project Life kit to list out his schedule for this year.

I love when I find a subtle patterned paper that's great for a background, but I could be happy just using white all the time. I love how the colors pop off of the white background. I use American Crafts cardstock available at Studio Calico here.
