Hi everyone, here is a layout for Simple Stories using the
lovely Simple Vintage Yuletide collection. This collection is very traditional with
classic vintage imagery and is simply wonderful to work with.
For this layout, I choose two of my favourite papers, a red
polka dot and a cream, red and green check print. I cut these into squares,
about 3½” each. I distressed the edges of each and arranged them onto a white
background.
I placed my photo on one of the grid intersections which I mounted
first with green paper. I then tucked in lots of Floral Ephemera and Chipboard
Stickers. I created a large cluster around the photo and then went on to make
two more clusters: one at the bottom that was linked to my title and a smaller
one at the top to balance out the layout.
For my title I used large word ‘Santa’ and ‘I’ve been good’
phrase – super cute! I added lots of other words and phrases to the layout,
some from the Foam Stickers, and some from the Bits & Pieces packs: ‘naughty
or nice’, ‘filled with wonder’, ‘the big guy’, ‘tis the season’ and more! There
are always such wonderful words and phrases in Simple Stories collections!
I also added some small stars, and some Decorative Brads
before finishing off with my handwritten journaling and a few splatters of
black paint. I love how it turned out and it’s wonderful to have captured this
beautiful memory – Santa came to visit us at our house at 6pm on Christmas Eve
before setting out on his rounds! What a lucky boy!
Thank you so much for joining me today and happy scrapping
