Moments with 49andMarket Krafty Garden & Ochre by Fiona Siegel

Hello everyone

This week I have used the 49andMarket Krafty Garden for my layout this week:

Moments


The May All About Scrapbooks crop day was held on International Scrapbook day and we had a couple of challenges. This was my creation for one of them based on this sketch:





I flipped the sketch and used the Krafty Garden papers to following the basic background. I've add ephemera from the Ochre collection to matt my photos and as tags instead of the circle:



I've added some some of the sweet wildflower stems from the 
Krafty Garden Laser Cuts to frame around my photos before finishing off with my title using one of the chipboard words from the Krafty Garden set:



Thanks for stopping by
Till next week

Little Moments with Simple Stories The Little Things by Fiona Siegel

Hello everyone

A bit of a stash bust page today created using Simple Stories The Little Things - bonus, this range is currently available in the clearance section!!

Little Moments



For this layout I wanted to focus on all my leftover cardstock flowers - Floral Bits - so designed a page where I could add some large clusters. I started with the floral strip and a splash of red spots to match my daughters top, then went to town on the flowers!


I added some flecks of ink using Distress oxide in Saltwater Taffy. And a few more flowers!



I then used the sticker book to make a title and subtitle. Out of stock but similar can be found with the cardstock sticker sheet or bits and pieces ephemera

Adored | 49 & Market Krafty Garden | Kel Moore

Hey Everyone, it's Kel here today sharing a page made with the new 49& Market Collection
called Krafty Garden.

 When I first saw this collection I fell in love with the colour palette.
 
The yellows with the earthy tones are so gorgeous.

I decided to scrap a photo of my youngest pup and the colours in my photo match this
collection so well.

Here is my page
"adored"

I started my page by using some of the larger pieces found in the ephemera pack, having
 them popping out at different sides of the photo. I like the 'non uniform' look this provides.


 I also used a frame from the 49 Collection called Ochre....they match so well with this collection.

Next I have layered up lots of the embellishments from the collection including the laser cuts,

 acetate pieces, ephemera and Epoxy Stickers.

 

  
For my title I used the word 'Adore' from the Chipboard Words.


I hope you enjoyed my page today and you check out this range in the store!

Happy Creating...

Kel

Happy Life with Cocoa Vanilla Studio Great Escape by Fiona Siegel

Hello everyone

The latest Cocoa Vanilla Studio collection is a cool travel range but also perfect for everyday photos:

Happy Life



For this layout I have started with my favourite wooden background - always love to use these! I have matted it on to the green background paper to make it pop a little more.  Next up layer up the papers - using some of the green background paper to tie the page together!


Love the stars to embellish my page - I have used a mix from the ephemera and chipboard stickers, then added some elements from the accessory sticker sheet and puffy star stickers. 


Next I have made a little cluster on the bottom right of my page to add my third cluster. I have used an ephemera star teamed up with some paper strips, accessory stickers and a chipboard arrow. 



and finishing off with my title Happy Life using the puffy title stickers - these are great and I love the font! 



Thanks for stopping by

Enjoy Life with Pinkfresh The Simple Things by Fiona Siegel

Hello everyone

Back today with another layout crested with the beautiful Pink Fresh The Simple Things collection. 

Enjoy Life


For this page I just loved the background and as it is quite a busy floral pattern I used more neutral papers for my photo layers - sticking a pattern in between the plain papers. I added the pink strip from Photoplay to break up the floral a little more.  I then set about using the ephemera and chipboard frames to embellish my page:


The colours of these gorgeous Green Tara cornflowers were so beautiful and made a perfect addition to my page. 


I fussy cut the tags from the All the Things paper , one ready made and one shaped into a tag to which I added some bright pink twine from my stash. 


Finally finishing with the title from the puffy stickers pack - super cute!

Rad | Simple Stories True Colors | Kel Moore

Hey Everyone, it's Kel here today to share a layout I made using the
Simple Stories collection 'True Colors.'

The colours in this collection are just gorgeous, they are so bright and happy...
this is my page.


I started my design with three strips of patterned paper running vertically down my page
 and I hand stitched around them. I have used 3 smaller photos and have offset them
 from the 3 strips of patterned paper.



Next, I moved onto embellishing my page using a mix of the elements from the collection.
 To the left photo I used a frame and word phrase from the ephemera pack, along
with a floral from the floral ephemera pack and stickers from the 12x12 sticker sheet.

 

To the right photo, I used another floral and more ephemera pieces and stickers.


For my title I used the word 'Rad' from the foam stickers, then underneath used some
 stickers from the Sticker Book.


I hope you found some inspiration from me today and you have enjoyed my page. 

See you soon!

Kel

My Mother, My Friend with 49andMarket Kaleidoscope by Fiona Siegel

Hello everyone

More creating with 49andMarket Kaleidoscope this week for this favourite photo of my Mum and I in Floriade last year. 

My Mother, My Friend


I've used the brighter colours this week, love how the dark pink paper frames the blue of the background paper and makes the pink flowers pop. I've teamed the photo up with some pink to matte the photo then some softer mixed papers. 

To embellish I have used the Kaleidoscope Laser Cut Wildflowers - the tags and tickets I have fussy cut from the packaging before adding the precut flower stems. 



another Laser cut Wildflower stem and some butterflies from this pack too:


another little flower then this awesome 2Crafty chipboard title just perfect! I have inked this in lime to make it pop against the blue background but also tie it in with the leaves on the background paper.

Today with 49andMarket Kaleidoscope by Fiona Siegel

Hello everyone

The beautiful Kaleidoscope collection by 49andMarket is my go to paper today for my pink loving child. It is a truly gorgeous collection of pinks, blue and green.

Today 



For my layout today I have chosen the pretty pink base paper and then added some paper layers with pink, green and the neutral book paper. The reverse of the cover paper has some great cut outs - I have fussy cut the blue tab and the 
words from this sheet. 



I've used the Lasercut Wildflowers to embellish my page, it has a mix of flowers, greeenery, birds and butterflies!


The collection also includes some chipboard titles - but I have gone with my stash and used the title today and the green chipboard heart from an older 49andMarket collection - Spectrum Gardenia. Love how good these collections are to mix and match. 


Thanks for stopping by
Till next week

Let's Scrapbook | Bella Blvd Let's Scrapbook | Kel Moore

Hello Creative Friends.
 Kel here today to share a new scrapbook page with you today using the new collection from Bella Boulevard called 'Let's Scrapbook'. It's a really fun, bright collection that is perfect to document your crafty moments with lots of cute pieces that as scrapbookers we all have in our stash like scissors, cameras, glue, ink etc. 

For my page I decided to scrap a picture of me that was used to introduce me to the
All About Scrapbooks design team.
Here is a look at my page...

 

I started with the paper called 'Kaleidoscope' which has a bunch of triangles on it. I cut them out and stitched around them. I added them to the left side of my page pointing them directly at my photo. I layered up some papers underneath my photo.


For my title I used the same 'Kaleidoscope' paper and cut some circles, then used the alphas from the 'Doohickey Sticker Sheet' for the word 'Lets' and the word 'Scrapbook' comes from the 'Ciao Chipboard Stickers.'



Under my title, I used a scallop border from the chipboard pieces, then added a bunch of the icons from the collection.

I hope you enjoyed my page today and you check out this fun collection.

See you soon!

Kel
