Using Chipboard and Rub Onsto Embellish this Mixed Media Layout Kellie Moore

Happy Wednesday Everyone!

It's Kel back today sharing a mixed media page with a mish mash of products from
the store. For my page today, I decided to focus on 2Crafty chipboard and rub ons
to embellish my page.

 I love both these products, and you will find links below to what I have used. 

Here is the page of my 'Ünique' 11 year old...

To start my page, I used some papers from 49 and Market and Uniquely Creative to create a base for my photos. I layered them up, tearing the papers to give them some nice texture.

I placed my photos in the middle of my page and used a frame from 49 and Market to frame the photo on the left., then I placed my chipboard on either side of my photos and some 2Crafty cogs to the top left.

I placed a bunch of rubs ons around the patterned papers on my page. 

To the top and bottom of the page I used a woodgrain paper from Uniquely Creative,
 cutting it into pieces, distressing the edges and gluing them down slightly unbalanced.

For my title, I used some of the papers I had already used on the page to cut out my title. 

Before gluing my title to the page, I used some Cog rub ons from AAll and Create
and I also used some 2Crafty chipboard cogs which I painted.

I hope you enjoyed my 'boy' page today, I had a lot of fun creating it! 

I will be back soon!

Family with Echo Park Our Happy Place by Fiona Siegel

Hello everyone
Back again with another layout created with the beautiful Echo Park Our Happy Place collection and some Cocoa Vanilla Studio These Days.
Family

For this layout I wanted to mix some of the colours together to compliment the varied colours in our family photo, strips of different patterned papers gave me lots of variety and the neutral word paper the perfect base. I've fussy cut two circles from the 4x4 journaling paper and roughed up the edges to create some shape variety to my page.  

I've added some small viewfinders to each side of my design painted white then lightly inked in a pale pink to compliment the papers. For flowers I have gone through my stash to find some perfect colours in the Cocoa Vanilla Studio These Days floral ephemera pack and these make up my two clusters. 
I've finished off with the title being one of the words from the Our Happy Place Chipboard Words collection and some small puffy hearts that are also CVS These Days.

Full of Lovewith Echo Park Our Happy Placeby Fiona Johnstone

Hello
This week I have a created a layout using the beautiful Our Happy Place collection
by Echo Park 
Full of Love

Love this little sequence of my sister and her granddaughter. The blue and pinks of this paper range are just perfect to document this moment. 
I layered up my papers with my photos trio with some tearing for texture then for the background I added some distress oxide in Saltwater Taffy to my white cardstock using the plastic bag technique and some splatters.
 I've then gone to my stash for some little hearts - all from Cocoa Vanilla Studio Daydream sticker sheet and a couple of enamel dots. 

Next some flower clusters using a mix of Green Tara and some pretty roses I found in my stash - a few more CVS hearts and my subtitle from Uniquely Creative. My main title is from the Echo Park collection chipboard titles.

Jolly Christmas Fun Vicki Boutin Wrapped In Ribbons Kel Moore

Hey Scrappy People, It's Kel back today to share another Christmas Page using
 Vicki Boutin Wrapped in Ribbons.
 I love the pop of black in this collection, I think it really sets off the traditional red and greens.

 Have a look....

Jolly Christmas Fun

I used one of the more subtle papers as my background then added some ink through a
stencil onto some white cardstock attaching it to the centre of my page. I added the
 striped patterned paper offset underneath it to add more colour to my page. 
I used a frame from the ephemera pack to frame my photo then offeset some patterned
papers under my photo to give the photo more presence on the page. I also used a
 foam sticker at the bottom of my photo.

Under my photo I used these stars from the sticker book, using foam tape for the middle
star to add more dimension. 
For the title I used the word 'Christmas' from the foam stickers, then used the thickers
 from the collection for the rest of my title. I love the gold on these black letters, they
 are really fun!

I added some holly from the ephemera packs to the top left and bottom right of my page,
 helping to create balance to the page.

 

I hope you have been inspired to get some Christmas crafting in and you check out this
 collection in the store.

 I love it!

Till next time..

Kel

Beep Beep Vroom Vroomwith Echo Park Little Boy by Fiona Siegel

Hello everyone
Back this week with a layout to document my daughter recently successfully getting her P plates:
Beep Beep Vroom Vroom

For this layout I chose a traditional "boy" paper - because I loved the cute cars! I teamed this up with the super cute set from 2Crafty Cars set and added some flowers in matching colours. 
Firstly I wanted a subtle background and to extend the star pattern on the patterned papers. I used the plastic bag technique to apply my blue - mixing too of the distress oxides to create the blue I wanted. Next I used a regular ink to add some stars through a Vicki Boutin mask. 

The flowers are a mix of Green Tara and Uniquely Creative - I've also added a 2Crafty Chipboard star to each cluster.
The cute little car I painted white to match my daughters car. This second part of the title inked in red rose ink, the other in Royal Blue.

Halloween Night withDoodlebug Hey Pumpkinby Fiona Siegel

Hello everyone

Back with another Spooky Halloween layout this time using the cute Doodlebug
 Hey Pumpkin Collection:
Halloween Night

Super cute paper with some not so scary looking Halloween figures! I've teamed this up with some 2Crafty Halloween pieces. 
Firstly I created a unique background using some of the stringy "spider web" stuff you get anywhere that has Halloween decor - I stretched it out over my page then taped the back. 
Next I layered up some pattern papers including these cute tags

and then I added some 2Crafty Chipboard - the cat inked in black then some glitter so he stands out a bit!

Another pumpkin - he is inked in a simple orange to match the paper, then finishing with my title Halloween Night. I have inked this piece in a light purple before adding some detail on the the shoes and socks with sharpie pens.

Believe Vicki Boutin Wrapped in Ribbons Kellie Moore

Hello Everyone!
It's Kel here today sharing my latest page using the brand new Christmas collection from
Vicki Boutin called 'Wrapped in Ribbons.'
Here is a look at my page..

"BELIEVE"

 

 

I started with the black background paper which is paper #11. I actually used 2 of these papers so I could cut out the branches from the top of the paper and pop them up on foam to add some dimension.  

 Next I wanted to add some stitching to the stars falling from the branches so I did this with red and white embroidery thread. I then cut some stars from some of the patterned papers and gold glitter paper and also put them up on foam. 

 
I placed my photo in the centre of the page then added most of my embellishments to the right of my photo to balance out the stitching and stars on the left of my photo. I used some of the ephemera pieces and dimensional foam stickers.

 For my title I used the word 'Believe' from the chipboard pieces.. 

  I finished my page using a sprinkle of glitter stars to add more sparkle to my page.
 I love the way gold pops on the black.. I hope you enjoyed my page today and you are getting ready to document your December memories.  Thanks for popping by..Kel

You're Boo-tifulwith PhotoPlay Creepin' it Realby Fiona Siegel

Hello everyone

As we get closer to Halloween I thought it a good time to share a couple of layouts using the new Halloween ranges and some 2Crafty goodness!
You're Boo-tiful

I've chosen the spooktacular Creepin' it Real collection from Photo Play for this weeks layout. I love this Orange spider web paper and matted it on to some black cardstock before adding some paper layers from the collection and adding another mat of cardstock to my photo under the patterned paper. 
My next step was to ink black this fabulous new Branches Frame Set by 2Crafty Chipboard. After inking this piece I have used a Uniquely Creative shimmer pen - you can see it slightly in this image:

Next I have used the pumpkins from this set and inked them in two different orange tones and added some shimmer spray to one and a cute witches hat from the Photo Play sticker sheet. 

The title "You're Boo-tiful" by 2Crafty Chipboard is perfect for my cute witch - more black ink and a little shimmer as well:

Enjoy every Moment with Cocoa Vanilla Bloom and Grow by Fiona Siegel

Hello everyone
Another share using Cocoa Vanilla Studio this week:
Enjoy Every Moment

For this layout I have used a white background with some reverse stenciling. I have taken my Vicki Boutin stencil, applies some Distress Oxide in Saltwater Taffy and sprayed with water before sticking stencil down on to my cardstock like a stamp, then dabbing with paper towel to create this soft background. 
Then I have matted the white cardstock on to the reverse side of the Wildflowers paper. 

 I have layered up some patterned papers from the CVS collection with some distressing and tearing, then used the floral ephemera pack to embellish my layout with some flower clusters.  A few journaling strips from the accessory sheet and the adorable heart puffy stickers to complete the clusters.

and finishing off with a 2Crafty Chipboard title Enjoy every Moment inked in Celadon ink.

Today Was... Vicki Boutin Bold and Bright Kellie Moore

Hey Everyone!
It's Kel here today sharing a page with Vicki Boutin Bold and Bright Collection.
 I chose to pick out the warm tones of the collection for my page today. I find this makes
 a page come together a bit quicker as it helps not to have so many products to choose from. Here is my page..

Today was.......

 I started my page by using a Vicki Boutin stencil and some distress oxide ink in the colour Picked Raspberry, then I added some stitching around some of the diamonds to add more texture.I have added some of the patterned papers under my photo, along with a notebook piece from the paperie pack . As you can see below, I have used a butterfly from the puffy stickers, a circular frame from the foam stickers and a floral piece.
 

 For my title I used pieces from the Paperie pack..
 

I hope you have found some inspiration today and you are finding time in your week to be crafty.See you next time!Kel
