Hi dear friends,
it's Lisa back on the blog to share this layout with you.
I wanted to scrap some pictures I had taken last year and still had laying around in my scrap room. I took the pictures in the snow, so I wanted a snowy layout :)
To start, I chose two cutfiles from Paige Evans I found in the Silhouette store (281821 and 282821). It's a winter town scene and a snowflake star. I cut the scene out of white paper and backed it with different patternd papers from the Whimsical collection. For the stars, I cut them out of different patterned papers, then I adhered them on another piece of paper and I hand-cut them out, leaving a border, so that every star would have two colors.
I also used a pink glitter paper from my stash to back the parts of the houses covered in snow and to punch out a few little stars that I adhered to the middle of every star snowflake.
When I had all of my pieces, I placed them on my white 12x12 white cardstock in a way I liked and looked balanced to me.
I wanted the stars to peak out behind the clouds or cover some of them, so I hand-cut out some clouds and I stitched around them with white thread. I also placed them on my layout. When everything was how I wanted, I started adhering everything down, using liquid glue for some items and foam squares for others, creating dimension.
I backed my three little pictures on some pieces of patterned paper and adhered them on the layout too.
For my title, I looked for a cute snowflake quote on Pinterest. I found this one that says: "Snowflakes are kisses from heaven". I wrote the word "kisses" on one of my favorite patterned papers from the Whimsical collection and then I cut it out. I placed it on another piece of paper and cut it out again. For the rest of the quote, I used the mini foam thickers from the Whimsical collection.
I love how it turned out! :)
To finish the layout, I stitched some french knots on the page to create tiny snowflakes. I also embellished some more, using rub-ons, stickers and ephemera from the Wild Child collection.
Thank you so much for stopping by, see you next time :)
