The soft colors found in the Paperie Collection are just gorgeous. They pair so well with the black patterns and elements in the kits. For my project today, I'm sharing a Paperie Simple Dori spread documenting an afternoon adventure.

To begin the layout, I selected a variety of embellishments from the Paperie Traveler's Notebook Memory-Keeping Kit and Paperie Modern Memory-Keeping Kit, including chipboard stickers, rub-ons, die cuts, and puffy stickers, and added them in a column down the page. Next, I created my title by pairing a chipboard sticker with black puffy alpha stickers. I then used a patterned paper and scallop border punch from my stash to cut out a strip to include in the line of embellishments. I always love the Paperie Memory-Keeping Stamps, so I had to include a bit of stamping to complete the left page.

For the other side of the layout, I trimmed one of the Paperie Traveler's Notebook Memory-Keeping Kit cards with a black heart pattern to back my photo. I love how my black and white photo stands out against the black patterned design. Next, I used the scalloped border punch to cut out a portion of the paper. This mirrored the design from the opposite page. I then embellished the photo with die cut and chipboard pieces. I also added a watercolor heart rub-on to the chipboard element.

I added layering stickers from the Paperie Traveler's Notebook Memory-Keeping Kit above and below the photo. To complete the spread, I stamped my date onto one of the stickers with a roller date stamp from a previous kit and added an embossed puffy heart sticker. This was a fun layout to make, pairing black elements with the soft colors in the Paperie Collection. Check out my Instagram Reel to watch me create this spread!
