Hey everyone, here is a new layout for Simple Stories using
the beautiful Full Bloom Collection. This collection is full of beautiful
spring colours and super cute icons. It is perfect for Spring or any outdoors
photos I think!
I have a photo of an amazing Bug Hotel which we saw in the
grounds of a Country House. It was not so much of a ‘hotel’ but more like a
castle!!
The beehive paper was perfect for this, and I decided to cut
away some of the squares in the centre to create an abstract shape. I wanted it
to represent all the nooks and crannies that the bugs hide in. I made it a
reasonable size and then added some yellow bits around the shape too. I backed
the shape with orange paper.
I added my photo together with some of the new Floral Bits.
I’m so happy to have these as I love floral ephemera! I tucked several behind
my photo together with a chipboard cloud.
To make my title I used the alphabet stickers from the Full
Bloom Sticker Book. I mounted them onto white card and trimmed them out. I then
added the words to the layout raised on foam pads. I then used embroidery
thread and two long stitches to ‘cross out’ the word ‘hotel’ and handwrote ‘castle’
underneath. I added bees buzzing around the title and stitched their little trails
in gold thread.
I added more Floral Bits around the outside of the shape together
with cute chipboard snails, beehive and a sign that says ‘garden’. These are
just so adorable!
I finished off with handwriting my journaling and adding
splatters of white paint!
Thank you so much for joining me today and happy scrapping
