Happy Easter | Daydream | Josefine Van der Hoeven
Hello Paperlovers,
I hope you all had a wonderful easter weekend and welcome to the Cocoa Vanilla blog today! On this layout, I turned myself into an Easter bunny and chose for the amazing “Daydream” collection. One of my favorite things to do at Easter is painting eggs and, of course, baking fresh Easter cupcakes with the kids. The beautiful soft pastel shades from the “Daydream” collection fit this Easter theme perfectly. The cutfile of the bunny ears and the Easter eggs are from the Cricut store.
First, I cut eight strips of patterned paper to size and use two edge punches from Martha Stewart and stitch the top of the strips with light blue sewing thread. I place the strips of patterned paper centered on the white cardstock.
I placed my Easter selphy on top of the paper strips and start decorating on the left side of the photo. I used different embellishments from the “Daydream” collection and a view elements from the “These Days” collection. I found a view butterflies from my previous scrapbook project and they fit the theme perfectly. I layered the flowers, butterflies and a cute yellow heart from fabric by using double-sided tape and 3D foam.
I cut three Easter eggs from a piece of white cardstock just as I did with the bunny ears. I colored the eggs with three different colors of distress oxide inks. ( evergreen bough, mustard seed and kitch flamingo) I playfully lay the colored Easter eggs on top of each other on the right side of the photo then I placed the rabbit ears above the photo and I think it gives a very funny snapchat effect.
In some places of the strips of patterned paper I curl and fold it a little bit. With white gesso I make some fun and festive splatters on my layout. For the title I use the word “Happy” from the Cocoa Vanilla word ephemra and used a mustard colored alpha set from my own stash to create the word easter.
I want to thank you for visiting the Cocoa Vanilla blog today and hope I was able to inspire you with the Easter bunny layout. I wish you a beautiful and happy day and until next time.
XoXo,
Jo
