Falalalala | Joyful collection | Sophie Delorme

Hello Cocoa Vanilla friends!

It’s Sophie on the blog today and I am so excited to share my very first page with the gorgeous Joyful collection!

 

I was inspired by the lovely December mood board. Here it is:

 

 

 

The color scheme caught my attention with the confettis and many circular elements like the wreath on the top left image and the Christmas ornaments on the bottom left.

I started with a thick white cardstock for my background and cut two large strips of the “Feeling Festive” patterned paper for the top and bottom of my layout and created a zigzag stitch with white thread.

I punched many 1 ¼ inches circles out of two patterned papers from the A5 Paper Stack, cut them in half and created a scalloped border along the upper strip of the “Feeling Festive” paper.

 

I used a tiny photo of my son playing guitar in his room, that I discreetly took from the stairs…! I framed it with a gorgeous scalloped frame from the Chipboard Sticker sheet and built my embellishments in a diagonal line around it.

I fussy cut numerous cute critters out of a A5 patterned paper that I placed around the photo, just as if the critters were listening to his music!

 

I fussy cut a big floral cluster out of the “Tis The Season” patterned paper and added die cuts from the Joyful Die Cut Ephemera pack and Chipboard stickers.

I printed my journaling and cut it into strips before adhering it to the page.

I splattered gold ink from my stash and finally placed a few beautiful gold Puffy Stars around my page as the finishing touch !

 

I am so happy with how it turned out !

That mood board is so inspiring !

Here are a few more close-ups:
