Autumn Days | These Days Collection | Josefine vd Hoeven

Josefine van der Hoeven 11/10/2021

Hello crafty Paperlovers,
It’s Josefine here today with a new layout that I created with the beautiful collection “These Days”
I love the fall colors and this collection is a perfect match.

I choose different design papers from the “These Days” collection and punch out different leaves from the papers. In the center of the leaves, I stitch a border with gold thread and used my sewing machine for this.

I wrapped embroidery thread around my layout several times. I placed my picture on top on the embroidery thread and made a large cluster with the leaves. I chose different die-cuts, stickers and flowers and decorate my layout with these gorgeous embellishments.

I decorated my layout with more beautiful elements from this wonderful collection. The wooden buttons, butterflies and the cute golden hearts. I love all these beautiful layers I have created with the leaves. I used a wax seal next to my photo that I made with wax and a seal stamp and decorated it with gold flakes.

I used two different alpha sets for the title “Autumn Days” I like the nice and playful effect of using different alpha sets. I cut branches from water color paper and colored them with two different colors of Distress Oxide. The colors are “rusty hinge” and “walnut stain” I placed the branches in different places between the leaves.You can also see that I made splatters with white acrylic paint and gold ink. I like how my layout turned out.

Well that’s it for today paper friends and I’m grateful you stopped by on the blog to see what I created with this beautiful collection. I hope I was able to inspire you with this Autumn layout.
Wishing you all a very happy and creative day!
XoXo, Jo

Lovely Memories | Josefine vd Hoeven | These days collection

Josefine van der Hoeven 11/09/2021

Hello Paperlovers, It’s Josefine here back with you today I made a new 12×12 layout with the gorgeous collection “These Days” by Coco Vanilla.This collection is great for documenting fall related photos but also offers the opportunity to capture everyday life such as summer, family, parties or romantic getaways. I love these beautiful pastel shades and give my layouts a warm feeling.

For this layout, I wanted to capture a photo of me and my husband. We were invited to the king’s ball. The beautiful collection ” These Days” fits perfectly with the beautiful romantic pastel shades. First, I used black thread to sew a circle on the white cardstock background.Then I used a circle confetti punch from “EK Success” to punch out several circles from the pretty pink dots design paper and taped them into the circle. I used 3d tape for this.

I trim three strips of designer paper to size and stitch them through the middle with black thread. Then I placed these strips right through the circle. I mounted the picture with different design papers and placed it in the center of the layout. I cut some flowers from the design paper and choose different flower die-cuts for decoration of the layout. On the left side of the picture I make a big cluster of flowers, butterflies, wooden buttons and die-cuts.

I used 3d tape to create more dimension in my clusters.I really like the different layers. For the title I used the elegant word ” Lovely” and for the word “memories” I used an alpha set from my own stash.When I’m done decorating I make watercolor splashes on my layout for just a little extra color. The pastel colors of Prima marketing match perfectly with the beautiful collection ” These Days”.

I can’t wait to see what you create with this fabulous collection from Cocoa Vanilla. I hope I was able to inspire you with this layout and thank you for stopping by. Wishing you a very happy and creative day! XoXo, Jo

You and Me together | Josefine van der Hoeven | These Days collection

Hello creative paperlovers,
Welcome and so happy to see you at the Cocoa Vanilla blog today. It’s Josefine here and share with you a new layout that I made with this amazing collection ” These Days”

I really wanted to work with these super cute puffy stickers and the shimmering gold hearts. I thought it would be fun to make a wreath and used the golden hearts in the center of these paper flowers.

I first draw a circle with a pencil on my white cardstock background. Then I stamped several times with the Distress Oxide color “evergreen bough”
I use a background clear stamp and print several times. Until I have a green circle in the middle. I mix the Distress Oxide with water and with a water brush I splash several times.

It’s time to make a wreath and I used the flowers and leaves from the “Floral ephemera” set
I put everything in a circle and used the punch floral set from We R keeping memories to punch out the five flowers from the design paper. In the center of these paper flowers I paste a gold heart. These flowers look so cute.

I punch out some more leaves from the green colored designer paper and slide them between the homemade paper flowers. I decorate my wreath with butterflies, wooden buttons and of course the puffy stickers. I place several puffy stickers between the leaves. Everything together gives such a festive effect. Really I love it. I cut out the photo in a circle and also cut out design paper in the shape of a circle. I use my sewing machine and stitch the edges. Then I place the photo in the center of the wreath. Finally I splash some white acrylic paint and gold acrylic ink on my page. So happy how this layout turned out.

I had so much fun with this amazing new collection “These Days” by Cocoa vanilla Studio. I hope I was able to inspire you to use the golden hearts and puffy stickers on your layout. Thank you for visiting my blog post today. Have a great time with the beautiful collections by Cocoa Vanilla Studio and wish you a beautiful and crafty day! XoXo, Jo

Hello Paperlovers,

It’s Josefine here with you today at the Cocoa Vanilla Blog sharing a new layout that I created with the beautiful “These days” collection and I couldn’t wait to combine my photos from Paris with the beautiful patterns and designs of this awesome collection.

I started by stamping on the white cardstock background by using a background clear stamp that looks like a stain. I make a mixed media background in the center of this page and stamp several times. The color of the Distress Oxide I am using is “tattered rose”
The color is very light and doesn’t stand out very much with photographing this layout.

I cut several picture frames from the design paper and placed them in the center of the page. I choose some different design papers and cut them into strips and fold them in half. I slide them under the picture frames.This gives a great dimension and extra details to your layout. I choose different die-cuts, labels, (puffy) stickers, word strips and wooden buttons to decorate my layout.

On both sides I make clusters of die-cuts, labels, flowers and stickers. I love creating different layers. I use 3d tape to make my clusters. Through the middle of the trees I sew with gold sewing thread. I love using sewing thread in my layouts.The great big black title ” Grateful” gets a nice spot under the photo. With the cute small alpha set I make the word life. My layout calls “Hello Grateful life” In love with the little puffy sticker typewriter. So cute!

Finally, I add some butterflies to my layout and splash some more with the Distress Oxide colors, tattered rose, speckled egg, victorian Velvet. I hope I was able to inspire you with this layout and want to thank you for visiting the Cocoa Vanilla Blog today! I wish you a beautiful and crafty day!

XoXo, Jo

Hello Paperlovers,

Welcome to the Cocoa Vanilla Studio blog today! So happy to see you It’s Josefine here sharing a new mixed media scrapbook layout with you that I made using the absolutely gorgeous summer collection “Sunkissed” just cant’t get enough of this collection.

For this summer layout I used the pocket page cards the 6×8 paper pad some die-cuts, a wooden button and stickers.The cut file I used is from Cut to you calls ” Lazy summer days” I started with a white sheet of cardstock and start mixing my pink colored distress oxide with a little bit of water and created a big stain in the center of this layout and at the end I splatter with the same color (Kitsch Flamingo)

I used a 6×8 star design paper sheet and cut it to size in a banner shape. I choose several patterns of pocket page cards and cut them to size and sew them on top of the star design paper using my sewing machine. I placed the two banners in the center of my layout and cut several 6×8 design papers to size and layer them behind the photo. I cut the title “Lazy summer day’s” with my Cricut and colored it with the color “peacock feathers” Distress Oxide and used a blending tool for the ombre effect.

I grab several die-cuts, stickers and word strips for decoration. Some die-cuts I sew with gold sewing thread and make clusters on both sides of the banners. At the top of the banners, I use white cotton thread for extra decoration. I sew gold thread through the center of this cutfile and place it under the photo. Finally, I make some white splatters with white acrylic paint for a festive look!

I had a lot of fun creating this layout for Cocoa Vanilla Studio! So I hope I was able to inspire you with this layout using these beautiful summery papers, die-cuts and stickers! Wish you all a great and crafty day! Xo, Jo

Hello crafty Paperlovers, Welcome to the Cocoa Vanilla Studio Blog today! It’s Josefine here showing you a new scrapbook layout that I created with the beautiful collection Sunkissed. I am completely in love with this beautiful summer collection. Definitely one of my favorite collections ever!

I love circles layouts and wanted to create a circle layout with this beautiful summer collection. I cut out a circle border from the wood grain design paper of the Sunkissed collection and I cut out a circle from the blue/green colored design paper. Both circles I stitched with white sewing thread. I place these circles in the center of this page. I placed my photo on top of the circles in the middle. Around the edges of the circle I stamp several times with the distress oxide and make some mixed media splatters. The color I used is “broken china”.

I selected some flowers, die-cuts and stickers and make a cluster on both sides of the circle. I used the gold glitter puffy word ” Memories” and placed it under the circle. I also choose an aqua colored Alpha set for the word “Summer”. My title for this layout will be ” Summer memories”.

I have decorated different die-cuts with gold sewing thread. On top of the picture I placed some die-cuts and word strips. Of course, I also used a wooden button on this layout. I choose to keep this page clean and simple. Now t’s time to add some white and black acrylic paint splatters and use my brush for this. These splashes make it so festive.

I am very happy how this scrapbook layout turned out. I hope I was able to inspire you with this summer layout. I looking forward to seeing your beautiful creations with this awesome summer collection! Wish you a beautiful and crafty day! XoXo, Jo

Pool party Days | Sunkissed | Josefine vd Hoeven

Josefine van der Hoeven 25/06/2021

Hello crafty Paperlovers,

Welcome to the Cocoa Vanilla Studio blog! A new day and a new share! It’s Josefine here with a new scrapbook layout for you using the beautiful “Sunkissed Collection” do you like pool parties too?!

For this layout, I start with a white sheet of cardstock. I stamped with a background stamp that already looks like a stain several times with the Distress oxide on the white background. The color I’m using is ” Broken China” when I’m done stamping I make splatters with the distress oxide on my mixed media background. The challenge is; use one paper, three ways with the beautiful design paper “Feelin’ Fine” from the beautiful Sunkissed collection.

I cut the title “Pool Party” with my Cricut Maker and backfilled it with the design paper “Feelin Fine” Check these cute butterflies! I cut the butterflies with my Cricut maker from the design paper ” Feelin Fine” and placed them around the title “Pool party” I cut the design paper to size and placed it behind the photos. I used two photos and placed the small size on top. Between the photos I used vellum.

I placed my photo in the center of the page. I picked out different die-cuts and layered them on the side of the photo. I also used clear stickers on my layout. I placed the clear stickers on acetate and cut them out. I slide them between the design paper and the photo. This gives a great look-through effect. Check this cute clear sticker “days” on this page.

If you placed these clear stickers on acetate you can used them as a charm. You make a hole with your “crop a dile” and with a metal ring you can make a charm. Just perfect for a mini album!

I colored the alphas from the cut file with distress oxide. The color I used is “Picked Raspberry” I used my blending tool for this. I attached the alphas with gold sewing thread.I punched stars out from the design paper with a punch and I randomly placed them on my layout.I created splatters with white acrylic paint and used my brush for it.

I hope I was able to give you some great ideas how you can used the clear stickers. I had a lot of fun creating this layout! I want to thank you for stopping by on the blog today! Wishing you a beautiful and crafty day! XoXo, Jo
