Wild by Nature | Cocoa Vanilla Studio | Great Escape Collection

 

Hey everyone, here is my latest layout for Cocoa Vanilla Studio using the Great Escape Collection. For this layout I decided to feature the wonderful journaling cards from the cut -apart sheet. I chose four cards and arranged them in a grid design together with two photos. I mounted the two photos onto some of the papers from the A5 Paper Stack.

I made the journaling cards and the mounted photos all the same size and distressed the edges of all. I arranged them onto my white card background and then I started to add some fabulous embellishments – my favourite part!

I used Floral Ephemera from the Heart & Home collection as the base for each of my clusters. I tucked them under some of the cards in three distinct areas. I added Great Escape Ephemera to the clusters, mostly smaller items, including stars, banners and arrows.

For my title I used the Wild by Nature title from the Puffy Title Stickers which I added to one of the journaling cards. I love these titles, there are so many totally awesome options!  I added some Ephemera words: ‘explore’, ‘roam’ and ‘adventure’ to my layout too and added word strips from the Accessory Stickers. I finished off with my journaling and splatters of black paint!

Thanks so much for joining me today and happy scrapping

Built Tough | Bramble Fox

 

For the boys..! For this layout I’ve used the fabulous new boy sets available now in the shop, to document my son’s birthday. He took a couple of friends Go-Karting and they had the best time.

I’ve used the Family Fun collection by Simple Stories, which is an older collection, from about 3 years ago, but I’ve held on to it as it’s so good for scrapping boys! I started off by using the cogs stencil, which I stencilled onto a white background using red and black inks.

I’ve used the Built Tough title in black as my main title, and I also used 100% Fearless, also in black. From the Diggers set I used the red racing car…so perfect for my Go-Karting photos! And I’ve also used a number of the cogs and tools. I love the small pieces to tuck in around my layout.

I finished off with colourful enamel dots and splatters of black paint!

Check out these new sets in the Bramble Fox shop, they are super fun!

Happy scrapping
