Great Outdoors | The Great Escape | Kel Moore

Hello everybody, welcome back to the Cocoa Vanilla blog, it’s Kel here today to share my latest creation using the new ‘The Great Escape’ collection. Here it is…

To start my page I decided I wanted to use the yellow paper called ‘Horizon’ to make a sun feature on my background. I cut the paper into strips at an even level to create the rays. Before I stuck them down I added some yellow ink behind the rays to add some depth and interest. After I stuck them down, I added some hand stitching.

I placed my 2 photos in the middle of the page, matting them on papers from the A5 paper stack as well as some black card stock to help them pop. Once they were down, I made some trees.. the trunks from a wood paper from ‘No Limits’ and the green paper called ‘Journey.‘ One tree to the left of the photos and one on the right to create balance.

Next, I cut some clouds from the ‘Starry Night’ paper and added them to the top left of my page. Above the left photo I added a tab and word sticker from the Accessory Sticker Sheet.

Above the right photo I added a frame and wood piece from the die cut ephemera pack. Then to the right of the photo I added a flag and some stars.

For my title I used the words ‘Great Outdoors’ from the Puffy Title Stickers. I popped them onto white card stock to help them stand out. Underneath I used some phrases which I cut from the cut apart paper called Wild Life.

I finished my page adding some more stars cut from the Star Gazing paper and some of the Puffy Star Stickers.

Thats my page, I hope you have been inspired today and I will see you soon!

Stay Crafty!
