Hey everyone, I was delighted to find some of the Cocoa
Vanilla Studio Legendary collection in my daughter’s scrapbooking stash! I
opted for a large circle cut from the green striped paper and mounted on the
dark brown woodgrain. I then cut part of the circle away, making space for my
title.
I created a ‘glow’ with green ink below where my photo and embellishment
cluster was going to go, then I added my photo, a woodgrain frame and a few
pieces of ephemera, including lots of stars and arrows. I added enamel dots and
some phrase stickers from the Accessory Stickers and finished off with my journaling
and splatters of black paint!
Thanks so much for joining me today and happy scrapping!
Big tropical florals and happy holidays make for a fun
beachy layout! I’ve used the gorgeous new ‘Holiday Happy’ title which is new to
the shop and some pretty summer bits to match. The paper collection is Just
Beachy by Simple Stories and these Perspextives compliment that perfectly!
I started with some stencilling using the August Fox Box
Plus stencil, which is a quilted pattern. I created two areas of stencilling,
under where my clusters would go. I then added large florals and some tags
together with my photos to make this split design. I added my title in the
middle of the two photo clusters, something I wasn’t sure about doing but I
love how it turned out!
Have you seen the pretty Simple Vintage Linen Market
collection by Simple Stories? I adore all the ginghams and the pretty soft
colours! For this layout I made a central square with tags and a big photo and
of course I added lots of flowers!
Hi everyone, this is my second layout using Simple Vintage Linen Market, I have
cut out one of the beautiful pattens on one of the 12x12 papers to use as a
feature – I love the patchwork look in this collection with the machine
stitching and ricrac details, it’s just so lovely!
I added the big piece to the layout and added my photo, and
then built up my embellishment clusters from there using it isa base.
I added some of the beautiful textured rub-ons under the big
strip, and under where some of the embellishments would go. I love doing this
as it really adds another layer of dimension.
I used one of the Layered Chipboard Stickers as my title – I
love the saying ‘these are the days’ and having that printed on a cute
clipboard was ideal! I layered this with another one of the mini tags from the
6x8 paper pad.
I then added some flowers from the Bits & Pieces
together with some butterflies and hearts. I also added some of the bugs and
bees from the Foam Stickers.
I finished off the layout by adding some Decorative Brads
and some splatters of black paint. I also handwrote my journaling onto the
bucket!
Thanks so much for joining me today and make sure you check
out the gorgeous Simple Vintage Linen Market, it’s so pretty and so easy to
create with!
Hi everyone! Here is a new layout for Simple Stories using
the very beautiful Simple Vintage Linen Market! I love the pretty but bold
colours in this collection, that combination has my heart!
I decided to create a circular design using patterns from
the 6x8 Paper Pad. I used metal dies to cut the circles. I also cut my photos
into semi-circles and layered them onto the patterned circles. I added a border
down the straight edge with the scalloped boarder sticker from the Cardstock
Stickers.
I fussy cut some of the pretty florals from one of the 12x12
papers and used these as embellishments to tuck under the circles. I also used
some of the gorgeous rub-ons as layers too.
My title is one of
the Foam Stickers ‘so sweet’ and I added another two of the smaller titles from
the Foam Stickers too: ‘the little things’ and ‘life is good’. I also added some
of the smaller stickers such as hearts and bees.
Have you seen that in the Simple Vintage Linen Market 6x8
paper pad, the tags paper is in there in miniature? The tiny tags are just
adorable and of course I couldn’t resist using those! I cut up a few and tucked
them into my circles – I added a little bit of red gingham trim to each one
with my tiny stapler.
I finished off by adding a few Decorative Brads and some splatters
of black paint! I hope you have enjoyed this layout, I loved making it and love
how it turned out!
Happy scrapping
Hey everyone, here is a new layout I made using the gorgeous
Unforgettable collection by Cocoa Vanilla Studio. I have used some CVS cut
files, available for digital download on their website. I cut the floral cut
files in white, added some pink ink to my background to make them show up and
then added lots of beautiful floral ephemera and fussy cut florals on top.
I layered in a circular frame and a small photo and then
also created a smaller cluster over on the right edge of the layout. I finished
off with my handwritten journaling, sequins and splatters of black paint.
Thanks so much for joining me today and happy scrapping!
Enjoy some summer fun with this Summer Shenanigans layout! I’ve
used the August Fox Box for this layout: the stencil is from the Fox Box Plus
and the title, turtle, crab and starfish are main Fox Box – how adorable is
that crab!
I’ve used the Just Beachy collection by Simple Stories – I never
have a shortage of beach photos! My photo for this layout is of my husband
giving my children and a friend, a very big silly squeeze on the beach, maybe
more of a rugby tackle! So the ‘crazy
fun’ smaller title in the August Fox Box went really well so I have that
pointing towards the photo!
Here's my layout playing along with the July For the Love of Pretty Paper Sketch! I used a full sized 12x12 photo for this layout which was really fun. I've used the Crafty Things collection by Simple Stories and a few Bramble Fox Perspextives.
Hey everyone! I have a new layout to share for Cocoa Vanilla
Studio today using the Great Escape Collection. I opted to attempt a more
minimal-style layout than my usual which is a bit out of my comfort zone because
usually I like to use ALL the things,! But it was fun to try something
different and I do love the result!
I began with two strips of patterned paper from the A5 paper
stack. I trimmed a photo to match the width and stuck my photo to one of the
strips – I was attempting to make it look like part of the design rather than a
separate photo stuck on top, and I think I did achieve that.
I then created two areas of embellishments, made up of
Floral Ephemera from the Heart & Home collection, and some Chipboard
Stickers and Accessory Stickers from Great Escape. I added a ‘glow’ of green
ink under my two embellishment clusters to add a bit of colour to the white
background.
I also fussy cut some of the flags and added those to the
layout. For my title, I opted to use one of the Puffy Title Stickers and I
added that vertically along the paper strip.
I then added a third strip of patterned paper, a bit
narrower than the others. This gave the effect of a completed central square on
the layout and balanced out the design somewhat.
I then added a few small stars and some sequins and a few
splatters of black paint.
This layout is a little different from my usual style, but I’m
trying out something a bit different here as sometimes I feel that I do so much
scrapbooking that I repeat the same designs over and over. It is great to try
for something a bit different and I love the result!
Travel and crafting, a perfect combination! For this layout for
BrambleFox, I’ve combined a crafting paper collection, with travel Perspextives
because we were travelling away for the weekend to visit Lisa Fonseca and Shara
Crane and do some craft classes with them! What fun!
I have used the new Crafty Things collection by Simple
Stories which was perfect for this layout. I’ve used ‘Happy Travels’ for my
title which is from the July Fox Box, and the wooden camera, which is also from
the July Fox Box. From a different set I’ve also used a mint Perspextive camera
too, which I’ve tucked in behind the fussy cut embroidery hoops that are across
the top of my layout.
I actually began the layout with stencilling using the plus
signs stencil from the July Fox Box Plus, but I then covered most of it up –
oops! I tucked rub-on flowers amongst the large cluster at the top too, and
more rub-ons behind my photo.
This layout is a slightly different style to my usual – I’m
trying something new and attempting to made less cluttered layouts, how did I
do?
