Hi everyone! This week the Creative Team were challenged to use the cute Tiny Tots 2.0 collection and a Moodboard.
I always love a challenge and a Moodboard is a great way to kickstart a layout.... I took inspiration from some of the colours (green, blue, pink and yellow), the shapes (circles and rectangles), stars, two different fonts, the word PLAY and the layered letters. Let me explain how I used each of these...
The Tiny Tots 2.0 collection is as the name implies a cute and sweet collection aimed at little children.... now I don't have children so I love finding ways to make this sort of collection work for me. Luckily I was chatting with a friend and was telling her about my assignment and I told her I need photos that have something to do with animals. She reminded me of our fun day out last October when we discovered this fabulous coloured wall of animals while exploring the local town. They were perfect! Thanks Wendy!
So that's the PLAY inspiration ticked off.... we were actually doing a Treasure Trail around Ross-on-Wye here in the UK, where we are given clues that take you around the town to various locations and places of interest. Once you solve the clue you move onto the next location... so it's like a fun day of play for adults!
I mounted my photos using the blue star Watch Out! patterned paper and distressed the edges. Then I layered them up over four different rectangles of patterned papers, sticking to greens and blues. That's two Moodboard inspirations covered... colours and rectangles!
Next is my fave part, adding embellishments! I used a mix of Ephemera Icons, Puffy Stickers, Epoxy Stickers and Ciao Chip Chipboard Stickers. Some of these are raised on foam pads to add dimension. These gave me three elements from the Moodboard... colours, stars and circles (epoxy dots)!
Then the title... so I pulled in two different fonts (another Moodboard inspiration ticked off!) by using the Luna Puffy Alphabet Stickers and Letter Scramble Stickers in Blueberry. Then I layered my two word title 'Street ART' to the side of the photos as it really pops against the white card. And that was the final element that I was inspired by from the Moodboard!
Thank you so much for stopping by the blog today! I hope you have enjoyed seeing how I used the Moodboard and feel inspired to have a go using it on your next layout!
