Unexpected

 


The layout I am sharing today was inspired by Ali Edwards' Story Stamp for the theme of Unexpected.

For the design of this page, I decided to go a bit unexpected and used a sketch that was a bit out of my comfort zone. 

The papers are from Studio Calico and I loved the rainbow stripe with the subtle diagonal variations in color. I chose to use that diagonal to be the horizontal line with my triangle pieces.


Used the wonky timeline stamp from the set and used it around on my background along with the tone on tone word.


I am always surprised at how many things I can pull from my stash that coordinate with the Story Stamp themes! Like the Me Oh My sticker with this paper collection.

I was able to modify some of the other stickers in the collection with my stamps to make them perfect for this layout.



The layout was feeling a bit flat so I added a few stitches to add a bit of texture to pull you across the page and add a bit of something to a sticker.

So happy with how this turned out! Especially since I was including such a long story that I was able to create a dynamic page despite that. 

Thanks for stopping by!
