Hi
everyone, here is a new layout for Simple Stories using the most beautiful
collection: Simple Vintage Coastal. This collection was released last year and
was so popular that it has been re-released this year! I didn’t get any last year
due to a lack of beachy photos but I admired it from afar so I am delighted to
be able to work with it this time around!
I have
chosen to use that stunning woodgrain paper for my background but I cut it down
a little and stuck it to a sheet of pink paper from the Simple Vintage Coastal
12x12 Basics Kit. These are fast becoming one of my favourite products because the
papers are solid plain colours whilst having some texture and they are
beautiful!
I arranged my
two photos at the bottom of my layout together with a few squares cut from the
2x2 Elements sheet. I choose pink tones as I wanted the overall look of my
layout to have warm colours because my photos were very warm in tone. I
continued to build up this horizontal line along the bottom and I added lots of
embellishments: ephemera pieces such as seagulls, starfish, an anchor, foam stickers,
a layered sticker signpost and brads.
I created a
small cluster at the top with a front branch and starfish, oar and ‘sunny says
are happy days’ saying. I added some natural twine, tied in knots and added
some at the bottom of the layout too.
I added the
word Beachy from the foam stickers as my title. I also added the word ‘just’ using
the alphabet stickers from the sticker book. I outlined these with black pen to
make the stand out a little better against the woodgrain.
I finished with
my journaling and some splatters of white paint. I think this collection is
truly stunning and I really enjoyed how it came together.
Thank you
so much for joining me today and happy scrapping
