Love | Storyteller Collection | Melissa Vining

Hello, it’s Melissa here and today I’m sharing a new layout that I created with the gorgeous Storyteller collection.  I really wanted to feature lots of the patterned papers so I went with a geometric cut file from Just Nick Studio called Broken Butterfly.  Rather than my go to white patterned paper background I used Ditsy Daisy.

This is a very busy page with colour and pattern.  In order to break it up I used navy ink applied with the packaging technique, and splatters in white and gold.  This separated the butterfly cut file from the busy floral background. I used lots of papers from the A5 Paper Stack to back the cut file.

The photo is my youngest daughter at our new local supermarket pushing the little trolley.  Its her favourite reason to help me shop!   I clustered several flowers and leaves around my photo from the Floral Ephemera.

My title is from the Chipboard Stickers, and was perfect because sometimes I’m too lazy to think of a title myself! I was so happy to get a Wood Button onto my page too!  I wrote my handwritten journaling onto a Die Cut Ephemera label, and the frame on my photo is also from this Ephemera.

I created a process video which you can watch below.

Thanks for joining me today.
