Members, have you downloaded the April Bonus Page Formula included with your Hello Sunshine kit?
If you're wondering what I'm talking about, be sure to check your email for member-exclusive links. Click on the "bonus page formula" icon, and you'll find a printable document complete with the image above, paper gathering list, and detailed trimming instructions.
I always look forward to creating the bonus formula. It's the first task I complete when starting on the new collection. As soon as the press sheets arrive at the warehouse, I take it for a spin to make sure my vision for the page matches reality.
After the formula passes the test, I move on to other pressing deadlines and finally circle back to finishing the layout with photos . . . the final task on my checklist!
Hello Sunshine Bonus Page Formula
I love how the colors of the Hello, Sunshine collection highlighted my "foodie photos" from a recent trip to Riviera Maya. I selected the following 12x12 papers: Paper A - Striped Print, Paper B - Dk. Yellow, Paper C - Black, Paper D - (2) Sun Prints.
After adding photos to the page, finish with a bold title. Here, I used my favorite thin steel die cut font with black paper from the Pack of Panels. Complement with Hello, Sunshine stickers.
Combine ribbon, stickers, and die cut numbers to create finishing touches on the right side of the layout. What a "pear"!
The best part about using the bonus page formula is that it can be used repeatedly with materials from your stash. Let's see what Karen did with her pages . . .
