Wild Times Ahead | Great Escape Collection | Michelle Stokes

Hey Hey, It’s Michelle back here to kick off another week of creative shares from the Cocoa Vanilla Studio Design Team. This week I’ve used the awesome Great Escape Collection to create this star filled explosion of colour to document our sweet little furry kids after a fresh haircut.

To begin I cut into the Happy Camper paper between two of the zigzag lines and adhered them to some white cardstock with a gap between to add all the stars. I cut up an entire sheet of the Star Gazing paper to get the right mix of colours and shapes to fill all that white space. I used both tacky glue and glue dots to adhere them to the layout for different heights of texture.

These 2 little fuzz balls are so hilarious when they have a haircut, its so much fun to look back each time.

I used a piece of the cool woodgrain paper from the A5 paper stack to pop the photo off the layout amongst all the colour.

Love Love Love me some stars, just about as much as I love fussy cut florals, and even though cutting up all that one sheet took so very long, I really love the texture it gives the layout

Theres a couple of accessory word stickers placed around the layout, and a mini cluster of beautiful stars at the bottom of the layout to balance it all out.

I created a mixed font title on the layout using the Foam title stickers along with chipboard sticker words. Perfect mix of textures to bring it all together.

I did add the usual splatter of gold ink to finish it all off.

Here’s a final look for you all…

Well friends, thats all from me today. Super short and sweet, just the way I like it.

Thanks so much for stopping by

Until next time, Happy Scrapping
