Adventure Awaits | The Great Escape | Kel Moore

Hello Cocoa Vanilla friends and welcome back to the blog.

It’s Kel here today and Im so excited to be sharing my first page with the brand new The Great Escape collection.

There is so much to love with this new line…..the colours, the versatility of what it can be used for, the icons, the chipboard… I could go on and on!

I decided to scrapbook this photo of my son on his way to his first school camp…here it is..

After looking through the collection and seeing the trees, mountains etc, I decided I wanted to create a scene of a ‘camp,’ so I cut a log cabin on my silhouette and made it the main element on my page..

I really wanted to use a brown woodgrain for my cabin so I used a paper from the Boys Rule collection, along with papers from The Great Outdoors A5 paper stack then added some hand stitching to create texture.

I decided I needed a paper to ground my cabin so I used the paper called ‘Horizon’ to cut apart the blue mountain tops, distressing the edges then putting them back together.

Next, I layered up my photo with papers from both the A5 paper stack and the orange paper called Happy Camper. I cut a small banner from the Wild Life paper and added it to the top left of my photo and used a sticker from the Accessory Sticker Sheet to pop out from the right side of my photo.

Under my photo I added a compass from the Ephemera Pack and a label for my date.

I then made a road leading from the cabin up to the top of my page using more of the tree die cuts from the Ephemera pack, along with the mountains and the ‘Fun Times’ sign.

For the title I used the word ‘Adventure ‘ from the Chipboard Stickers, popping a lantern from underneath it…I like how that looks! I anchored the title to the page using the ‘Horizon’ and ‘Journey’ papers.

I finished off my page with some of the stars from both the Chipboard Stickers and the Puffy Star Stickers.

Thanks for stopping by and I hope you are excited to get your hands on his fun collection…it is shipping soon!

Take Care
