Hello Paperlovers,
Welcome to the Cocoa Vanilla blog today! So happy to see you…Scrapbooking is an amazing hobby that allows us to preserve our memories in a creative and beautiful way. With the right supplies, it’s possible to create stunning layouts that capture the essence of a special moment. such collection that can help you achieve this is the amazing “Happy Days” collection from Cocoa Vanilla Studio. In this blog post, we’ll explore a scrapbook layout that uses this collection and features a mixed media background and a beautiful half rosette that looks like an umbrella.
To begin with, I used a sheet of white cardstock as the base for my layout. I then applied some distress oxide ink in the color fossilized amber to create a mixed media background. The oxide ink blends effortlessly, giving a lovely vintage feel to the layout.
Next, I created a half rosette that I wanted to look like an umbrella. For this, I used a piece of patterned paper from the Happy Days collection. The paper had a beautiful blue flower pattern that looked perfect for the umbrella. I cut the paper into a long strip and then scored it at regular intervals. I then folded the paper along the score lines to create the rosette. Once it was complete, I created a handle from a yellow colored pattern paper, making sure it looked like an umbrella.
To decorate the umbrella, I used some beautiful flower die-cuts, butterflies, lemons, and peaches that I had cut out from the Happy Days collection papers. I arranged the die-cuts in a way that looked like they were hanging off the umbrella. The flowers were a mix of bright pinks, yellows, and oranges, while the butterflies were a mix of gold and pink. The lemons and peaches added a lovely pop of color to the layout and complemented the other elements perfectly.
The Happy Days collection from Cocoa Vanilla is a fantastic collection to use for your scrapbooking memories. It has beautiful bright colors and the papers and die-cuts are perfect for creating beautiful layouts. By incorporating a mixed media background and a half rosette that looks like an umbrella, I was able to create a lovely spring layout that captured the essence of a special moment. I want to thank you for visiting the blog today and hope to see you next time with a new project. I wish you a happy and creative day! XoXo, Jo
