The Wait | Sophie Delorme | Storyteller collection

Hello Cocoa Vanilla friends!

Sophie here and a cute layout to share with you!

 

I used the Storyteller collection to document this lovely photo of my dog Fiona waiting for her very best friend to arrive!

This month’s theme is “Tell a story”, and that was my focus on this page as I highlighted my cute little story by printing it on a Pocket Card and framing it with one of the frames included in the Storyteller Ephemera pack. Have you notice that it seems like Fiona is looking at the frame? That’s why I placed the journaling frame on the upper left side of the page.

I used my favourite paper of the collection “Brighter Days”, cut it into a big scalloped border and placed it on the right side of the page, adding a zig zag stitch in matching thread between each stripe.

 

I stamped the letters for my title with an alphabet stamp from my stash for the words “The Wait” and added the “Story” Chipboard sticker to complete my title.

Then, I embellished the page with beautiful floral die cuts and butterflies. I added two Wood Epoxy Buttons and a few Nuvo Drop dots as the finishing touch.

 

Here are more close-ups:

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

As you see, focussing on a story doesn’t necessarily have to occupy a lot of space on a layout. Presenting it as a focus point, or even like an embellishment, will guide the eye easily towards it and make it stand out beautifully!

I hope this was inspiring for you, thank you for passing by.

Il will see you again soon!
