Hello Friends!
It’s Rebecca here on the blog today, and I’m excited to share my second layout of the month, created using the beautiful Create Happiness Dewdrops collection by Stamperia. I’m so glad I stepped outside my comfort zone and experimented with this collection—it’s been such a joy to work with! You can find the full collection in the shop here.
I’m absolutely smitten with the patterned papers in this collection. Many of them feature exquisite details along the edges, making them perfect for backgrounds. For this layout, I chose the Flower Corner paper, which has stunning florals and text running down the sides. It left a perfect open space in the center, giving me just the right area to build a central design.
I began by tearing a strip of the same paper—this time, using the beautiful woodgrain design on the reverse. I positioned this strip vertically down the centre and placed my photo (framed with one of the die cuts from the Adhesive Paper Ephemera) right on top.
To add some extra flair, I used a metal die to cut out a viewfinder shape from the Wood paper. After cutting it in half, I positioned the two halves on either side of the woodgrain strip. From there, I began building clusters around these elements, using florals from both the Adhesive Paper Ephemera and the Die Cuts. I also added a third cluster beneath my photo with a filmstrip die cut, a coffee cup die cut, and a floral piece. For the title, I selected one of the chipboard words and placed it on top of the cluster. I absolutely love how the little coffee cup is nestled in—perfectly fitting, since the photo was taken in a Starbucks coffee shop!
To finish the page, I couldn’t resist adding a few of the Pinecones and Flowers Rub Ons. I placed tiny bubbles on the background and created my own epoxy flair by applying a rub-on to some patterned paper, then punching it out with a 1-inch circle punch. I topped it off with a domed epoxy sticker for extra dimension.
Thank you so much for stopping by! I hope these layouts inspire you to step outside your comfort zone and try something new.
Take care,
Rebecca x
