My first Chic Tags layout

Sharing my first layout created for Chic Tags.  I used an enlarged photo from my recent trip to California. Here in the land of frozen tundra aka Michigan there's snow, snow, and more snow so when I scrap photos from my trip it warms my soul and takes me to a Happy Place. The colors in the Chic Tags Happy Place line were a PERFECT match for my photos and scream California to me.  

Of course there has to be layers sometimes a lot and sometimes a little. This time it was lots. I mixed layers of pattern paper wonky cut, tags, and journal cards. "The Good Stuff" was fussy cut from a mini tag then I tucked the grid background under the layers on the right. I also fussy cut the triangles at the bottom right corner from the Crisp Air paper to point out the typed "this is the life".

I hope you have been inspired to grab those photos of a happy place next time you scrapbook!
