This week we are getting back to the basics... a 12x12 layout with two uncropped 4x6 photos side-by-side. Getting back to the basics doesn't have to be boring though! The sketch also has a circle element in on corner with two embellishments running along the sides of the photo block.
I love new products that come into the store so it should come as no surprise that I chose the brand new Basic Grey Urban Prairie papers, stickers, and brads for my layout. Sesil, Cheryl, and I just put the new Urban Prairie and Granola collections from Basic Grey on the floor Thursday evening!

I matted my photo block with an oversized mat of patterned paper. I also added in the glitter lace paper mat off center to add some interest.
I used a circle shaped journaling sticker but decided to use a metal frame over the top that has been in my drawer WAY TOO LONG! Sometimes I will just pull out something in my collection and challenge myself to use it on a layout. That metal frame was my challenge for this layout.
To border the photo block I used a combination of a sticker and ribbon. I accented the sticker with the small brads.
Overall this layout took me about 15 minutes to complete once I had my supplies chosen. Gotta love a quick beautiful layout!
