You Make Me Smile | Using a Cut File & Storyteller |Niki Rowland

Hey everyone, this is Niki here (@nikiclairecreates) with a new layout and video using the Storyteller collection. I adored this collection when it came out a few years ago and I still love it now!

I have used a cut file for this layout – I don’t use cut files very often because I have a technical issue with my Silhouette machine but I have managed to cut this one! It is called ‘Geometric heart cut file’ and can be purchased and downloaded on the Cocoa Vanilla Studio website: https://cocoavanilla.com.au/Cut-Files-c161548809

I cut the cut file in white, and then back filled it using lots of patterns from the Storyteller A5 Paper Stack. I tried to stick to blues, greens and yellow patterns.

 

Once back filled, I placed my heart onto a white background. I added some areas of dark blue ink under the areas where my photo, title and embellishments would go. I then added lots of fussy cut flowers and Floral Ephemera and my title from the foam stickers ‘you make me smile’.

I also added a wooden button, some Chipboard Stickers and some phrase stickers from the Accessory Stickers.

I finished off with some black foam hearts, some little puffy hearts, handwritten journaling and some splatters of black paint.

I love how this layout turned out, it was lovely to use Storyteller again, and to use a cut file! I hope you like it too.

Happy scrapping

Niki xx
