Hi everybody! It's Kirei here with another layout using the super cute farmyard inspired EIEIO collection! For this one I have focused on using the Cloudy Day Clear Cuts acetate sheet and decided to create a scene on my layout using the Clear Cuts to make three large handstitched clouds.
I added an 11" square of white cardstock to a frame cut from the EIEIO Howdy paper. Now I have to confess that sticking the white card at an angle created me some challenges when adding the various elements as I was trying to keep them straight but they just didn't look right.... I persevered and think it looks okay in the end!
I hand drew three clouds using the ones on the Cloudy Days Clear Cuts as a guide. Then I cut each of them out and used them as templates to cut out three clouds from the Clear Cuts acetate sheet. I laid them onto my background and when happy with the positioning I added a piece of washi tape to hold them in place while I punched the stitching holes. Then I added a backstitch border to each cloud using a pale blue embroidery thread.
Then I moved on to adding my photo which I first mounted using pieces of the EIEIO Howdy and Borders papers.
Next it was time to embellish and I used a mix of the EIEIO Ephemera Icons, Epoxy Stickers, Puffy Stickers, Bella Pops Holy Cow! and Trinkets Stickers.
I finished off by adding a title using the Aria Alphabet in Pony and my journaling.
Thank you so much for stopping by and I hope you have found some inspiration to use the new EIEIO collection!
See you again with another layout very soon.
