It's Time to Bloom with Uniquely Creative Delightful Curiosities by Fiona Siegel

Hello everyone
This week I have this months Uniquely Creative range, Delighted Curiosities to showcase to you. 
It's Time to Bloom

With its blues and greens this collection is prefect for your outdoors photos, especially this one of my eldest daughter in her blue/green dress. I chose the background woodgrain to match the palm tree in the background and then the floral green paper to match the print in her dress. 

I've matched up these with some cute embellishments from the creative cuts pack - love the little frame which I have used as a base for my mounted flower cluster. I've added some extra flower stems and a super cute butterfly. 
Then it was some fussy cutting from the Curiosity Cabinet paper - the scallop border and the beauty circle.  

I completed my layout with this lovely 2Crafty chipboard title - It's time to Bloom.

Like Totally Awesome with Simple Stories Totally 80s collection by Fiona Siegel

Hello everyone
Back with another 80s share from our retreat this year using Simple Stories Totally 80s collection:
Like Totally Awesome!

Some group photos this time from retreat. I have used the fun flouro shapes on black as my background then added some pops of fluoro pink and teal along the sides of my layout design, from the Simple Stories Color Me Happy collection. I have fussy cut the scallops from the Right Now paper and added them to either side. 

I have used the fun embellishments from the stickers set as well as some fun shapes from the Page Pieces set, giving matching embellishments to each photo, with a main cluster of some retro items - TV, Boom box and Cassette tape. 

I added a fussy cut cassette tape as well and added some 80s words to my design before adding my fab title Like Totally Awesome using the Page Pieces.

Together Simple Stories Simple Vintage Timeless Harmony Kellie Moore

Hey Everyone!

Its Kel on the blog today sharing a page using the Simple Stories Timeless Harmony collection.
It is so beautiful and elegant with the green, cream and black tones paired with the icons of florals and butterflies. This range could be used for wedding photos but also has versatility to be used to scrapbook about love, anniversaries, family photos etc.

My photo is of my youngest son when he was a page boy at his Uncles wedding a few years ago.

I started with a plain paper from the Simple Basics pack that you can get with this collection. They make great base pages but can also be great for matting photos. I offset this paper with one of the busier patterned papers to add some interest.  

I have used lots of the different embellishments to add clusters around my photo including chipboard, foam, stickers.

I have also added some 2Crafty Tiny Film Strips to four spots on my page.

The 'Together' piece is from the chipboard set.

Thanks for stopping by and I hope you are documenting your memories! 

Take Care, 

Kel

Back to the 80s with Simple Stories Totally 80s Collection by Fiona Siegel

Hello everyone
Todays layout features a fun and funky 80s theme using Simple Stories Totally 80s collection:
Back to the 80s

Back in May I went to a scrapbooking retreat with some scrapping friends and the theme was 80s! Lots of fun ! This new Simple Stories collection was perfect to document it. I love the bright and retro colours.  I've matted my white cardstock in a hot pink paper from Simple Stories Color Me Happy and Bella Blvd Gingham and Stripes paper. 

Is it even an 80s collection if there is no rollerskate? Super cute stickers are a part of this range - not just skates but some retro and neon shapes as well as some well known 80s phrases.

I've used some cute puffy stickers from an older VB collection to add some dimension. I finished off with a shipping tag fussy cut from the paper with Back to the 80s - then added some hot pink twine to finish it off as my title.

So Grateful for Youwith Carta Bella and Uniquely Creativeby Fiona Siegel

Hello everyone
Back with another layout using papers from Carta Bella Flower Shoppe Collectionand a Uniquely Creative Heart Overlay to commemorate Mothers Day this year with my girls 💗
So Grateful for You

Yes, I did make everyone dress the same for this photo! 
I love an overlay as they make an awesome feature on a layout. Uniquely Creative make a fab bunch you should definitley check out. They can be time consuming till you get the hang of backing with paper but look so effective. I like to trace the reverse side and then cut slightly wider to give an edge to glue down. 

Once the overlay is done I have stuck it too a semi plain background paper - with the white cardstock matt to match the overlay. Then I have added a double matte frame to my photo and some simple embellishments - word and bow stickers from the cardstock sticker sheet and then some flowers and enamel dots to complete. 

I've had this title in my stash for some time - its from Celebr8, and I have inked it and then added some sparkle over the word grateful to make it stand out a little more.

Gamers Never Quit 49 & Market Level Up Kellie Moore

Hey Everyone!

It's Kel here again sharing another page with 49 & Market Level Up collection.

 Here it is.

I started with one of the patterned papers as my background which is unusual for me, but I just love the graphics on these papers that I HAD to!

I have used 2 photos of my son gaming, which is perfect for this collection as it has a lot of gaming icons. I have placed my photos to the left side of the page and used some of the solid papers to ground my photos.

My title is placed towards the middle of the page, it is a chipboard piece from the collection.

I have used a variety of the embellishments from the collection to highlight my photos, including the laser cuts, rub ons and ephemera pieces.

I finished of my page using more of the rub ons and laser cuts to highlight and add more emphasis to the right side of my page and make that background paper pop.

I hope you are inspired!

Happy Scrapping! 

Kel

Be True to You with Carta Bella Flower Shoppe by Fiona Siegel

Hello everyone
This week I am creating with the pretty Flower Shoppe from Carta Bella. So girly and cute!
Be True to You

Oh I love this bow paper!! I wanted it to feature on my page so I used this large square design and matted it with a light blue background. I then added a full length strip of pink paper in a  neutral pattern so my embellishments and title would pop!

I've used the sticker sheet from this collection to embellish with flowers and bows. Then I made a little tag cluster on the top corner to break up some of the white space. 

More stickers - more flowers, bows and some butterflies too!
I love this big title by 2Crafty and it really pops in the darker blue on my page!!

This is a beautiful collection , I may have been hoarding it just a little bit!! Love a pink and green combo and this photo called for just that! I have teamed up the pink and greens in the papers from the paper pad and then added some complimentary embellishments!

I've used some Green Tara flowers to embellish my layout and teamed this up with some butterflies from the Garden Chronicles laser cuts and some frames and tabs from the back of the paper pad - love how they have these in the back of the paper pads. 
From my stash I have added a mix of ephemera and some PinkFresh Studio chip circle words, then I've finished the page with a 2Craftyy Chipboard Title - Amaze Yourself which I have inked to match and a spattering of Garden Chronicles Enamel Dots.

No Limits 49 & Market Level Up Kellie Moore

Welcome back to the Blog! 

It's Kel here today sharing a page using the new 49 & Market Level Up collection.

I'm always on the hunt for boy collections and this one hasn't disappointed!

For todays page I am scrapbooking 2 photos of my youngest son from his first
year playing Rugby League and this range was perfect.

 Have a look

I have used all solid papers for my layout, a grey for my background then layered 3 papers across the middle of my page, tearing the edges for texture, then laying my photos offset to the left side of my page. On the left photo I used a frame from the ephemera pack to highlight the photo, then used some laser cuts to create a cluster to the bottom left.

For my title I used a piece from the chipboard pack, also laying a frame around it for attention.

Above my photos I have used another chipboard piece along with some rub ons, then I added some stars with a stencil and black marker.

I repeated these elements under my photos also.

I felt I needed some more colour so I added some torn papers to the top and bottom of the page and added some 2Crafty chipboard called Mini Hexagon Clumps.

I hope you are inspired and look at all the new goodies in the shop!

See you next time

Let's be Adventurerswith Arden Creative Been Thereby Fiona Siegel

Hello everyone
Back this week with a new layout using Arden Creative Been There collection, for some more travel photos: 
Lets be Adventurers

These photos are from a road trip to Dubbo, so I chose the vehicle paper as a focal paper and the green tree paper for the background to match my photos.  Love using mini photos when you have a lot of pictures without overfilling your page. 

Next I have made some small embellishment clusters using some older 49andMarket laser cuts as well as the Arden Creative Laser Cuts and pieces from the back of the paper pad

A mini cluster of embellishments with a tab for the where journalling. 

Then some of the words from the back of the paper pack for a subtitle and the main title.
