Bloom and Growwith Carta Bella That's My Girlby Fiona Siegel

Hello everyone
Super cute collection this week by Carta Bella for little girls, That's My Girl!
 Gorgeous pinks and greens and love the thickness of the paper. 
Bloom and Grow

For this layout I focused on the green in the jumper and then added some florals and pinks to match the overall image - outside in the garden. I love how this papers edges rough up as it is quite thick paper. I love the woodgrain paper as a background for contrast - this piece is from the boy collection by Carta Bella - That's My Boy. 
Perfect stickers to accompany the page and some pretty white blooms and a smattering of heart stickers to complete the embellishing. 

I am a sucker for a cute mushrooom sticker and this little house one is super cute!! I finished my page off with the 2Crafty title Bloom & Grow - in a slightly darker red so it pops. The perfect title for garden photos!

Snapshot Mintay Photographer Collection Kellie Moore

Hi Scrappy Friends, it's Kel here today sharing a page using the gorgeous collection
 from Mintay called Photographer.

This collection is so elegant with dark moody pieces along with some gorgeous florals
 and camera icons. The papers have a printed texture, allowing the look of dimension
 without having to do the work.

 Here is a look at my page..

I'm documenting two photos of my boys playing while waiting for photos at our wedding.
 I love the candid nature of the photos, just capturing the fun they are having.

I started by framing my photos with frames from 49 & Market.

This page only used 2 pieces of patterned paper from the collection which I cut up
and placed around my photos. The papers are so beautiful that they do a lot of the
 work for you.

I cut up some of the florals, tucking them around the page...

To continue on with the camera theme I used some of the 2crafty filmstrips which
 I embossed with brown glaze.

I also used a 2Crafty View Finder which I painted black.

And some 2Crafty Heidis Vines which I embossed in gold and added some
subtle stamping to.

For my title I used the word 'Snapshot' from the sticker sheet and also used some
 of the word phrase strips to the page.

I hope you found some inspiration today and check out this gorgeous collection in the store.

Till next time

Love this with Simple Stories Simple Vintage Flower Shoppe Collection by Fiona Siegel

Hello everyone
This weeks layout has been created using the very beautiful 
Simple Stories Simple Vintage Flower Shoppe Collection.
 Stunning colours and a huge range of embellishments to choose from!
Love This

I chose the lovely lilac shades to be the focus colour on this layout, teaming it up with the other gorgeous pastels and all on a lovely whitewashed woodgrain background. I fussy cut the viewfinder and postcard from the 3x4 patterned paper and handcut a scallop border from the Dreamer paper. I have added a butterfly from the ephemera pack and some flowers from the foam stickers pack. 

Love this super cool camera ephemera piece. I jazzed it up with one of the large decorative brads - Happy Day!

I added a fussy cut butterfly here to match the ephemera one on the other side of the layout and used the large ephemera piece Love This as a title. I finished the page off with some foam sticker hearts and flowers and the small brads from the decorative brads packets.

Bonjour with Mintay See You in Paris by Fiona Johnstone

Hello everyone
This week I have a fun page created with Mintay papers See you in Paris collection. 
Bonjour

Some fun photos from a recent trip to the Grounds with their Paris theme display! For this layout I wanted to focus on the pink, black and white colour scheme to match my photo and the background display. I have used 2 of the B sides of the Mintay papers and the added some of the gorgeous die-cuts in the ephemera pack that you can see here:

And of course, it cannot be a Paris page without the Eiffel Tower. This is a 2Crafty piece, which I have inked in grey and added over some more of the ephemera pieces. Love the french theme throughout. I have then finished my page with some words and title sticker using the Mintay words Stickers.

Fun Times 49 & Market Toddler Time Kellie Moore

Hello Scrappy Friends!
It's Kel back today sharing a page using the 49 & Market Toddler Time collection. I'm documenting three sweet photos of my boys when they were about 3 years old... they are
soon going to be 18 and looking back it brings back so many memories!

I started my page by cutting a large circle and placing it in the middle of my page. I then used a bunch of the papers from the Solids Collection pack and cut a bunch of stars, laying them around the circle.I have stitched some of the stars and popped some of the stars up on foam tape. 

I have placed my photos horizontally across the middle of the page, layering the middle photo with papers and using foam tape to give it dimension.
To add more layers I have used some of the tickets from the ephemera pack to tuck under my photos. 
I placed some of the laser cuts on the diagonal, and placed the 'Charmer' tag onto my middle photo. 

My title is a piece from 2Crafty which I embossed with white powder.

I hope you enjoyed seeing how this page came together, I love how it turned out.
See you next time!

The Coast Walk with Coastal Bliss by Fiona Siegel

Hello everyone
Another layout created with Uniquely Creative Coastal Bliss to document a walk
 I did along the coast. 

The Coast Walk 

For this layout I wanted to focus on the lighthouse on the background paper so did my deisgn with smaller photos and focused these to the left of the paper, adding some plainer patterned papers around my photos. 

I have used a mix of ephemera and vellum to embellish my page. I love how the vellum blends in to the background almost like it is part of the paper. I love the flowers, but how cute are the shells in the ephemera pack ? Perfect finishing touch!

My title I have stuck to the right of the lighthouse and made it slightly bigger than normal to balance out the page design.

Summer Fun Getaway with Uniquely Creative Coastal Bliss by Fiona Siegel

Hello everyone
This week another Uniquely Creative layout, this time using the Coastal Bliss collection.
Love this range, lots of beachy vibes
Summer Fun Getaway

For this layout I started with the gorgeous background paper - The Sea is Calling. Love the woodgrain and all the tropical flowers along the edge. Just stunning. I matted my photo with some blue paper from Days Like This and a torn strip of pink from the daydream collection. 

I've used lots of ephemera in this layout - the pack contains a huge amount of flowers, some beach elements and a variety of words from title size to small journaling sized. I have used a mix around my page. 
Cute little clusters top left and bottom right on my page, a mix of floral and sealife. I have finished with the title - a mix of ephemera pack alphas:

Together Simple Stories Say Cheese Classic Pooh Kel Moore

Hey Scrappy Friends, Kel here today sharing a page using the new Simple Stories
Say Cheese Classic Pooh collection. I'm looking forward to using this collection to document photos of all my boys in their younger years.
The colours, patterns and icons in this range are so sweet.Here is a my page..

I have used one of the subtle papers as my main base of the page, then added some blue
 cardstock and the red paper strips along the edges to enhance the page.
I started with adding two papers from the 6 x 8 paper pad to frame my photo.
I have some 2Crafty hexagons (coming to the shop soon) that I painted red and blue to
match the collection then popped some papers behind them, then cut some more hexagons
 from the papers to create a vertical design down my page. I then filled the hexagons with
 die cuts, stickers, foam stickers and brads.

To the bottom left of my page I used the Pooh and Piglet from the page pieces to create a
 focal element to the page, adding a foam heart to the balloon.

My title word 'Together' is also from the Page Pieces.
I finished my page adding some word phrase stickers from the 12 x 12 sticker sheet..

I hope you are inspired and check this collection out in the store...it is SO cute!
Till next time,Kel

Cherry Blossom Festival with Uniquely Creative Daydream by Fiona Siegel

Hello everyone
This week I found the perfect paper for my photos from last years Sydney Cherry Blossom festival with Uniquely Creatives Daydream collection:
Cherry Blossom Festival 

The State of Bliss paper was just the perfect background with its beautiful cherry blossom pattern across it. I have teamed it up with two other papers from the range to matt the photo and a small doily to add to the softness of the page. 

The 2Crafty chipboard Cherry Blossom branch was the next choice and I created a dimensional branch using some Green Tara cherry blossoms and some smaller blooms. Love the effect and it frames my photo. 

I've added some ephemera from another Uniquely Creative collection - Coastal Bliss - they tag and word just fit well with the colours on my layout. I added a little Hello button from my stash which is from another UC collection. 
I finished off my layout with some gold alpha thickers from my stash, popped perfectly on the page and some small white thickers to match.

Lovewith 49andMarket Toddler Timeby Fiona Siegel

Hello everyone
Back with one more using the fab Toddler Time collection by 49andMarket.
Love

 I just loved this background paper with the leafy frame around it but added a little edge of the yellow paper to the sides, and mounted my photo with it to make it pop a little more. I also used some of the advertising strips to add layers to my page - then a fussy cut tag from one of the papers in the collection. I added some laser cut elements to the tag, including the cute ephemera heart and twine piece

Next, I added some more pops of yellow with the laser cut elements doily and chipboard flowers before getting some small titles from both. 

I finished off with the chipboard title love to the top of my page.
