Go Outside with Guest Designer Nenascrap

Hello, Elle’s Studio fans! Today we are excited to welcome our new guest to the blog, Delphine, also known as NenaScrap! Delphine’s designs include plenty of layers and texture, and if you head to her Instagram feed, you’ll see that there’s really nothing that she can’t create with pretty paper and embellishments. We think you’ll love what she’s sharing with us today, using our newest products! Let’s take a look!

Hi, Elle’s Studio friends! I’m Nenascrap and I’m so excited to be a creative guest this July! The Elle’s Studio products are just amazing and I am so lucky to be creating with the July 2021 Kit and add-ons. I love the colors—they reflect our busy family life perfectly and the ones in the July 2021 Kit are beautiful.

When I saw the rainbow paper from the Adventure Paper Stack, I immediately wanted to create a page featuring it, and I knew I would use the lines of color to write my journaling!

I created a border with a notebook edge punch at the top and placed the paper in the center of a white cardstock background.

I chose two photos from our first family outing after the lockdown that ended in May in France. These happy photos fit perfectly with the colorful and outdoor theme of the July Kit and add-ons. I matted the photos with other patterns from the Adventure Paper Stack. I like to add volume to my pages, so I mounted my photos on cardboard and adhered using 3D adhesive foam. 

I positioned my photos on the rainbow paper by shifting them a little. I slipped the orange and yellow tag from the July 2021 Kit at the top and stamped the date on it. I love these tags and the graphic nature of them. You can use them anywhere and I can’t wait to incorporate them into my pocket pages, too!

I used one of the Nesting Tags Metal Die pieces to create a tag that I tucked under my photos, which created the perfect place for my title.

I made my title with the fabulous Teal Parker Acetate Alphabet Stickers and navy Jane Tile Alphabet Cardstock Stickers. Both are a must have, don’t you think?

Now on to my favorite part, the stamps! I had a blast with The Great Outdoors Stamp. I love the little labels that I stamped in yellow and tucked in where my photos met. I completed my title with the phrase “Let’s Go Hiking” and stamped the three trees in black at the base of my journaling to add contrast.

I finished my layout with the embellishments: die-cuts from the July Kit, Chipboard Speech Bubble Stickers, label, puffy and acetate stickers.

For a final touch of contrast, I added splashes of black ink to the background.

I hope you enjoyed my first project this month! Thanks a lot to Elle and Meghann for the opportunity to share this month of July with you—it’s a dream come true!

Hi, I’m Delphine, aka NenaScrap, coming to you from Brittany, France !  

You can always find me creating colorful mini-albums, layouts and project life pages. I’ve tried a lot of creative activities, but I fell in love with scrapbooking. It allows me to document my family life and, trust me, with 5 children there’s always something happening! My motto is, “A day without creating is a day wasted.” 

Find Delphine’s beautiful designs on her Instagram feed and YouTube channel until she joins us again later this month! Thank you so much for guesting for us, Delphine, and sharing this fun layout!
