Life is Good | Daydream | Lina Monaco

Happy Wednesday my friends,
We’re half way through the week and I am more than happy to share with you a layout I created with the Daydream collection. It was just perfect to document the photo of my husband and myself. If you’re looking for the YouTube process video, you can fine it HERE on the Cocoa Vanilla channel.

I jumped right in and used quite a few pieces of cardstock from the collection kit including: Sunshower (both sides), Up in the Clouds, and Over the Rainbow. I also layered in a white piece of cardstock for some contrast and to break up all the patterns. My photo is matted with papers from the A5 Paper stack and then mounted on some dimensional foam for height and depth.

I wanted to create a visual divide of floral between the vertical papers and my background paper. I used the Die Cut Ephemera and layered tons of pretty florals to create this effect. Then, using the Die Cut Titles, I selected the words “Life is Good” and layered those right between the papers and florals. This is a different placement for me with the title but I am liking the play of placement.

I then added a few clusters of embellishments around my photo. I also tucked in some metallic gold thread behind my photo as well as created a nest of thread for the Flair Button to sit in. Using the type stickers from the Accessory Stickers, I picked out a few and added them onto my Polaroid frame to give me a sub-title.

Lastly, and to finish off my layout, I added some sequins from the Sequins & Florals packet and some metallic gold paint splatters and called this layout done! I hope you enjoyed today’s layout and if you’d like to see a more in-depth process, you can click the link above and watch it on YouTube ☺️

Enjoy the rest of your week!
