WRMK Indian Summer & Kaisercraft North Pole - By Linda Eggleton

Hi everyone...can you believe that another month has just slipped by?!?! Only 2 months left for the year! :-/  Eeeeek!   I am back again to share one last layout using this amazing collection from WRMK - Indian Summer   I really wish I would have had more time this month to create more layouts with this one....but unfortunately, it's been a super busy month...so I'll have to save some for a rainy day :)     "The Great Australian Wind Catcher"  

 I have used mostly plain papers for this layout....with the main layered area under the photo being all cards & frames from the albums made easy journal card pack.  It is amazing how quick a page comes together when using pieces such as these...it's just a matter of choosing a few cards, and shuffling them around until you are happy with the layout...and presto - you're done!

 

 

 I really love these embossed feather stickers and I've included them in my cluster of

Petaloo & MH flowers. 

 

 

 Another of the embossed stickers is this cute little butterfly.  It is really hard to see the definition in the embossing here, but IRL it is quite prominent & they look great, adding a touch of definition into the page.

 

 

 This wooden tag....is actually REAL wood....and it is g.o.r.g.e.o.u.s!

At first I thought I would struggle with the size of it , but it fell into place quite easily & now I don't think it is too big at all :)

 

 

 I've used a few of the different sized journal card pieces & frames, layering them under & over each other to create a random stepped effect in behind the photo.

 

 

 My pic is of a windmill not far from where I live....taken for one of my photo a day prompts earlier in the year.  I love that where I live, these windmills are scattered across the rural landscape...they are literally everywhere <3       Next up I have a few of my Kaisercraft DT projects using another Christmas collection - North Pole  

This is a fun collection, with quite a few non-traditional colours...which I love!

I have created 2 layouts....one is Christmas themed and the other is from our holiday to Ireland last year, so this is quite a versatile collection and would be suited for other layouts besides Christmas :))

    "Dreaming of a White Christmas"     

As the North Pole name suggests - the colours are well suited for snow themed Christmas layouts.

The photo I've used is not actually a photo....it is an image from an e-card, so was not taken by me.

I have always dreamt of having a White Christmas, so I thought this paper collection was perfect to document that dream :)

I've used the gorgeous Snowflakes paper for the background, with those

awesome faux stitched chevrons!

 

 

 My cluster has a few paperblooms, Collectables pieces & also some stickers from the sticker sheet.

I've also added a few spirals from the stems of the paper blooms

 

 

 I have layered a variety of papers in under the photo & also some Collectables pieces as well.

 

 These baubles are gorgeous pieces from the Collectables pack.

I love delving into each paper collections Collectables pack...it is quite literally, just like Chrismtas!

They are always filled with a HEAP of fabulous pieces....in all different shapes & sizes.

 

I have added my journaling to the back of a tag & it slips just in under the photo. 

 

 There is also some mesh tape around the edges of my paper layers for a bit of added texture.
