Hello 2015! Jill Sprott here, and since we’re a little over one week into the new year, what better way to greet it than with the new Elle’s Studio Hello 2015 tags and accents? While one way to use the calendar tags is to save them for Project Life pages and month-by-month layouts, I decided to use a bunch of them at once. I charted the time from the beginning of the year, when this photo of my cousin and her fiance was taken, to the time that my entire family has been waiting for — when the happy couple ties the knot this August.
To emphasize the progression from one date to the next, I added some wandering, roundabout stitching, depicting the way that time seems to move when you’re really looking forward to something. Along the way, there are lovely little “landmarks,” in the form of accents that I trimmed from tags and patterned paper. I added a Love You More wood veneer heart next to the first date, with its counterpart next to the wedding date, and a third next to the couple, creating a visual triangle.
It seems fitting that on this page, which celebrates the new year as well as a great love, both Hello 2015 and the Love You More collection appear side by side.
