Happiness | Simple Stories | Simple Vintage Cottage Fields

 

Hi everyone, here is a new layout for Simple Stories using the Simple Vintage Cottage Fields collection. This collection is really very pretty. I was instantly drawn to the paper with the pink gingham print and decided to make this my background. I cut a large square out of the middle and backed this with a sheet from the Simple Vintage Cottage Fields Basics Kit.

I mounted my photo into one of the chipboard frames. These frames are always so gorgeous and I love the details on them. I added this to the bottom left corner of the square. I then cut up the 2x2 Elements paper and picked out some of my favourite squares.

I spent some time distressing all the edges of the squares and I also machine stitched around the edges of some with black thread. I then positioned these onto the layout, tucked inside the frame and well as some on top too.

I then added to the frame feature with foam stickers, label stickers and Decorative Brads. I wanted a mixture of different small embellishments around all the squares.

I added a title using one of the foam stickers ‘happiness’ and I finished off with journaling and splatters of white acrylic paint.

Thanks so much for joining me today and happy scrapping
