Hello Love | Storyteller Collection | Rachel Lowe

Hello scrappy friends! Today I have a 8.5×11 inch layout using the beautiful Storyteller collection with a focus on the floral die cut ephemera.

 

I found this lovely hanging basket cut file by Paige Evans (Silhouette design store) and knew it would be perfect to fill with the floral die cuts. I firstly cut it as a whole using the Cross it off paper (wood grain side). I then cut it whole again in white cardstock. I then cut off the hanging leaves in the wood grain and added the white cardstock ones. I paper backed the basket with a blue paper piece from the A5 paper pad.

 

I used Spring Fling paper to add a border to my white cardstock (floral side). I next used wet glue to adhere the hanging basket cut file. I decided on a 3×3 inch photo and as a guide placed where I wanted it and started adding floral die cuts over the cut file florals. I arranged them until I was happy and ensuring they also gave the effect of hanging over the basket.

 

 

I added some centres to flowers using the Puffy stickers to add dimension. Lastly I added some green leaves in amongst the white leaves for contrast.

 

 

I added my photo with foam tape and then set about to embellish using the die cut ephemera, accessory stickers and chipboard embellishments. And lastly I added a butterfly wood epoxy button.

 

This turned out so pretty and would suite a variety of scrapbooking themes.

 

Thank you for stopping by today and have a fab week!
