Simple Stories | Vintage Junk Drawer Part Two | Giselle Homer
Hello Magpies,
Here’s my second layout using Vintage Junk Drawer from Simple Stories. It’s a great collection for layouts of the countryside with a good choice of floral & leafy ephemera. Lovely soft colours too!
HELLO
When choosing the papers for this photo, I knew this dusky blue would work well, so I used it as my base.

I began by cutting 3 strips of patterned paper, one measuring 10″ & two at 7.5″ in length. After distressing the edges, I glued them in place across the centre of the page. I used the top one to add my journalling, using a grey fine liner pen.

Before placing my photo, which measures 4″ x 3″, I cut a rectangle of blue patterned paper, distressed & inked the edges. I wanted to add some interest as well as having a focal point for the photo. After gluing the photo in place, I drew 2 borders around the paper & placed a P.E.T. sticker at the top right corner.

On the right of the photo I added some die cut leaves & two flowers from the March HLM embellishment kit, with a phrase sticker.

On the left I added a cluster of floral stickers, die cut elements & stickers including one for my title. And another PET sticker – these are so useful to pop into little spaces on your layout!

I’ll have one more layout, using this collection, to share with you later in the month. Until then, happy scrapping everyone!
