Tasmania | Great Escape collection | Tarrah McLean

Hi creative friends!

It’s Tarrah back with you and today I am sharing a new travel layout featuring the new Great Escape collection. I decided to document our recent trip to Tasmania, printing a total of 6 favourite photos all in a small format to create a vertical filmstrip look.

 

I chose 3 patterned papers to use for the background of my layout. I turned the Direction patterned paper over to show the green side, the Happy Camper patterned paper was left with the flags showing and I also turned the Horizon patterned paper to reveal the yellow suns. Once the papers were arranged and adhered, I placed the photo strip over to the right side of the layout.

For my title, I decided to spell the word Tasmania using the ‘Fun Times Ahead’ chipboard title. As I was spelling the word Tasmania in my head, I thought all of the letters were there in the 1 packet of chipboard except Tasmania has 3 A’s so I did have to open a new packet of the chipboard elements and steal one of the A’s from that pack! I placed the title along the top line of the Horizons paper and I also added one of the puffy titles under the chipboard title too.

Just above the Tasmania title, I placed one of the round die-cuts and also placed one of the banner stickers from the Accessory stickers through the centre of the photo strip. On the right of the photos at the top, I added the Let’s Go flag die-cut and bent up the edges slightly to add some texture. To the direct right of the photos at the bottom, I added the tree chipboard and layered one of the phrase stickers from the Accessory sticker sheet over the top. I also added more of the phrase stickers above the Tasmania title.

Once the larger elements were added to my page, I added some of the smaller elements including one of the banner chipboard pieces below the Let’s Go title and I created a cluster of embellishments at the very top of the page using stickers from the Accessory sticker sheet and a puffy sticker too. I added a couple more puffy stickers and finished by freehand drawing a border around the outside using my journal pen, stamping the date stamp and sprinkling some black mist to finish.

Thank you so much for stopping by the Cocoa Vanilla blog today! I hope you are inspired by my layout and got some ideas for your next project!
