Beautiful | Storyteller Collection | Melissa Vining

Hi everyone, It’s Melissa here and I’m back sharing another layout that I created with the beautiful Storyteller collection!  I just love that this collection is so versatile for documenting all the stories I want to tell.  For this layout I was inspired by the beautiful cameras in the collection, and I decided to scrapbook a photo of my daughters from Mother’s Day last year. I used Cross It Off for my background, and I just love the gorgeous woodgrain pattern.

The camera cut file I used is from Just Nick Studio, and was perfect to recreate the camera with florals. I love the navy blue in this collection and used Ditsy Daisy, Brighter Days, and Little Love to back the cut file.

I used lots of flowers and leaves from the Floral Ephemera pack to embellish the camera.  I bent up the petals and used lots of dimensional adhesive to keep them from laying flat. I also used one phrase from the Accessory Stickers.

I added my journaling on a piece from the Die Cut Ephemera pack and I tucked it into the floral cluster.  I love that my journaling is contained!

I selected the phrase “So Beautiful” from the Foam Title Stickers.  They sat so perfectly across the camera. My final touch was to splatter with gold shimmer which is so lovely on the woodgrain background.

I hope I’ve inspired you to take inspiration from the icons in the collection.

Have a lovely weekend
