Hello My Little Shoebox fans! Here’s Monique today with two layouts and a card, using the brand new “Vintage Shop” collection. I am in love with owls, so you understand my excitement when I first set eyes on this collection!!
Here’s my first layout about my super sweet Cocker Spaniel.
I used the Silhouette Cameo to create the title, the lamp post and the clouds.
How I love the colors and designs of this collection!
Supplies: MLS Vintage Shop: Rose Ribbon (50011), French Lace (50012), Heirloom (50013), Attic Treasures (50014), 3D Roll-Up Flower and Accents (50015) and the Cardstock Stickers (50016). MLS Aiko: Kiss (11819) and Happy Go Lucky: Linen (11859). Other supplies: Kraft cardstock (American Crafts). Digital designs from the Silhouette online store, My Little Shoebox Portfolio
Then my second layout, using a photo of my mother and grandmother in around 1944:
I found this photo only a few weeks ago and I’m so happy with it I wanted to scrap it straight away. This collection is just perfect for it!
I’m really happy how this turned out!
Supplies: MLS Vintage Shop: Rose Ribbon (50011), French Lace (50012, Attic Treasures (50014) and the Cardstock Stickers (50016), ML S Aiko: Kiss (11819), MLS Mini Alphabet Sticker (50153). Other supplies: White and Kraft cardstock (American Crafts), Embossed Gold (Making Memories), Feathered Flower (Webster’s Pages), Pearl (Inkido), Glimmer Mist (Tattered Angels), Words-To-Go (K&Company), Doily: Misc.
I used the Silhouette Cameo to create the title and a border punch from Martha Stewart to create the row of birdies.
Then last but not least I created this card; how I love those owls!
The base of this card is the Kiss side from an Aiko sheet and on all 4 sides of the card I adhered a small strip of paper which I then machine stitched to the base. In the centre of the card I stitched one of the journaling cards from the Vintage Shop sheet “Attic Treasures”. I added a row of buttons, a title (cut with Silhouette Cameo), a cardstock Owl sticker (use foam adhesive for extra dimension) and finished with a banner from the Vintage Shop sheet “3D Roll-Up Flower and Accents”.
Hope you like it!
