Monday Mini's - "The Sweetest Thing"

This sweet 6x6 mini layout is a soft and charming tribute to my daughter Aimee. Full of delicate layers and pastel prettiness. I used a  lovely mix of smooth cardstock, soft patterned papers, crinkled ribbon, lace tucked behind sweet dimensional embellishments—all working together to make the layout feel very pretty and feminine. 

Photo Focus:

• The central feature is an adorable photo of a toddler outdoors, dressed in a classic blue dress and white sun hat—full of vintage charm!

• The photo is matted on several layered papers, giving it dimension and framing it beautifully.
  

Color Palette:

• Soft purples, mint green, pale yellow, blush pink, and white give this layout a dreamy, almost storybook feel.

• The patterned papers include delicate floral prints, subtle script, and soft watercolor-style washes.
  
  

Embellishments:

• Dimensional Flowers: Small paper and fabric flowers with pearl centers add texture and softness. One pale pink embroidered flower near the bottom corner stands out beautifully.

• Ribbon Detail: A crinkled peach ribbon is tucked under the journaling tags—adding a sweet, flowing element

  
  

📝 Journaling Touches:

Several small typed word tags are underneath the photo. Two die cut ephemera pieces, including the words 'perfect' and 'the sweetest thing' Also, some larger, American Craft Thicker letters - the word 'hi'

• “PERFECT” in bold letters is placed vertically beside the photo.
  
  
• A large die-cut banner reads “the sweetest thing,” stretching along the right edge.
