Just So Sweet | These Days collection | Sophie Delorme

Hello Cocoa Vanilla friends !

It’s Sophie on the blog today and I am SO EXCITED to be sharing my very first layout with the amazing These Days collection !!!

 

Ahhh where to start when everything from the collection is so gorgeous ?!

I decided to go with a simple page and wanted to use plenty of different patterned papers.

I cut strips of different width and length of many patterned papers from the collection as well as a few colored cardstock from my stash and curled one end of each strip, turning them around a brush. I aligned them in a horizontal line on the lower third of the page to “ground” the rest of the design.

 

I stitched one or two French Knots with matching embroidery floss on each strip.

 

I used a square photo of Sabrina hugging our dog Fiona (what’s new ?!!). I printed it in color and I think it matches perfectly with the color scheme of the collection. I backed it with tissue paper and adhesive foam and placed it on the right side of the layout.

For my title, I used a beautiful frame from the Die Cut Ephemera pack, added adhesive foam and the B side of the “Home Grown” patterned papers. I used the Mini Puffy Alpha Stickers for “Just So” and the Foam Title Stickers for “Sweet”. I placed it on the upper left side of the photo and added a die cut banner and a few die cut hearts scattered around the title frame.

 

I handwrote my journaling directly on the background cardstock and placed a cute typewrite just next to it.

 

Finally, I added a few floral embellishments and clear stickers and that’s a wrap !

I hope you like my page today and feel inspired to use this gorgeous collection !

Until next time,

Sophie xx
