Enjoy every moment!
Summer is fast approaching, bringing with it the delightful scents and colorful blooms of lavender. Hello, it is Ali from @funadventureswithali, and today I am excited to share a blog post for the Simple Stories design team featuring the stunning Simple Vintage Meadow Flowers collection.
This collection is a feast for the eyes with its array of beautiful, patterned papers, and I could not resist using most of them from the six-by-eight paper pad for my layout. Taking inspiration from a sketch by Debbie Sanders, I adapted it slightly by incorporating just one photo instead of three. Using my sewing machine, I stitched all the pieces together, creating a charming quilt-like background.
Among my favorite embellishments are the chipboard frames, and I found the perfect one to highlight a photo of my husband and me in the lavender fields of Washington Island. I clustered chipboard stickers and enamel dots to the right of the picture, elevating them with foam tape for added dimension.
Another cluster of chipboard stickers, enamel dots and flower die cuts adorns the top right of my page, adding a touch of whimsy. The memories of our visit to the Lavender farm come flooding back each time I gaze upon this layout.
As we anticipate the arrival of summer, let us take a moment to appreciate the beauty of blooming flowers and the fragrant scents they bring.
With love, Ali
