Heart Eyes – Simple Stories – Heart Eyes – Wendy Meffan
Hi Everyone! It’s Wendy here and I’m over on the blog today sharing a layout using the gorgeous Heart Eyes Collection by Simple Stories. I just love the brightness of this collection and also that it’s not all pink /red for Valentines and has a splash of mint green in it.
To start with I made a mixed media background using distress oxides, stamps and stencils. I went for a vertical design. A black and white photo worked well with all the bright colours. Using papers from the 6×8 paper pad I tore some vertical strips and adhered them over the mixed media. I also matted the photo and then made a larger photo mat and punched a note pad effect across the top. I placed this over the mixed media as the central feature. I attached a couple of side tabs and tucked in a few pompoms.
I felt I needed to extend the layout vertically so used phrase stickers from the sticker sheet and cut some tickets from the 12×12 ticket paper. I arranged these at the top and bottom of the vertical design.
On the chipboard sticker sheet there was a big title of Heart Eyes which was perfect for the photo, I added this over the photo .
The was a gorgeous flag on the sticker sheet with LOVE on it which fitted perfectly at the top of the photo and created balance for the layout.
Finally I added a bit of stamping both sides of the side edges and added some heart stickers.
I hope you has given you some inspiration for this gorgeous collection, and do take a look at the website for all the beautiful collections which are arriving.
Until next time… Happy Scrapping!
