Good Times with 49 and Market Artful Moments by Fiona Siegel

Hello everyone

This week I'm back with some 49 and Market Artful Moments collection to document a photo I have had ready to scrap for a while!
Good Times

When I saw this background paper in the Artful Moments Paper Pad,  I knew it was the right range for this adorable photo of my great niece doing some finger painting.  I fussy cut the cute crayons from one of the papers - and I still have butterflies that I have fussy cut to add to my pages!!

I've then combined some embellishments from the Journaling Bits set and the Laser Cut elements to continue my arty theme - colour wheels, paintbrushes etc. 

I ended up going through my stash for the title and came up with this one which is from am old Cocoa Vanilla collection - Good times!

You Are My Greatest Adventure Echo Park My Favorite Monster Kellie Moore

Welcome back to the Blog!

It's Kel here today sharing another page with the Echo Park My Favorite Monster collection. 

Today I'm scrapbooking two photos of my twin boys from a VERY long time ago, they recently turned 19!! 

Here it is...

I 

started with one of the patterned papers as my background which is a bit different for me, I tend to use white cardstock a lot but I challenged myself. I then chose two of the papers and cut some large pieces to lay vertically down the left side of the page to anchor my photos on.

I have offset my photos, leaving a gap between them to have a place to put my title which came from the cardstock stickers.

Above and below my photos I have used some 2Crafty Interlocking grid panel pieces which I coloured black. I love how they pop off the page and add some great dimension.

 

I have also added some ephemera pieces and chipboard .

I have also added some 2Crafty chevrons to the sides of my photos which are great to direct the eye to the photos.

I decided to add another cluster to the right of my page to help create balance. A few strips of paper and stickers.

I hope you are inspired and check this collection out in the shop.

See you next time

Wild Thing Echo Park My Favorite Monster Kellie Moore

Hello!

It's Kel here today sharing my DT layout using the new Echo Park collection called My Favorite Monster. When I saw this collection in the shop I immediately fell in love with the monsters in this range. They are so cute and fun!

Today Im scrapbooking two photos of my son when he was a toddler wearing his toilet training undies and gumboots... I really do miss those early years, they grow up wayyyyy too quickly!

Here is a look...

For the base of my page I started with some patterned papers laid vertically down the right side of the page then cut a large circle for my photos to sit on. I used some of the 6x6 papers to mount my photos and laid them down slightly offset.

I then cut another smaller circle to add to the bottom left of the page to create a cluster and another point of interest. 

The page was feeling a bit plain, so I added some stenciling to the background using a Vicki Boutin stencil and green ink.

 

To the left of my photos I added a journalling piece from the ephemera pack, layered up with some 2Crafty Dotty Bits which I coloured black.

For my title I used a piece from the Chipboard Set...

To finish off my page I added some more of the chipboard pieces, puffy stickers and stickers above and below my photos.

I hope you enjoyed seeing my page today and you check this collection out in the shop!

See you soon

Kel

Big Smiles with Simple Stories Pink Lemonade by Fiona Siegel

Hello everyone

This weeks layout created with Simple Stories Pink Lemonade:
Big Smiles

I had almost a full sheet of the Tag Elements paper, scraps of the rest of the patterned paper but still a few stickers from the 12x12 Cardstock Sticker sheet left in this collection so decided to use the tags as a feature!
A large strip of the super cute Strawberry paper then some strips of co-ordinating papers along the right hand side. I matted my photo with the green Simple Joys paper then fussy cut all my tags from the Tag Elements sheet and lay them along the edge of my page - I added some twine to a couple, left some plain and then added a large twine bow to the centre one. 

Next I hit up the 12 x 12 Cardstock sticker sheet to embellish my page with a mix of flowers and few little quotes and hearts. I used the scalloped border sticker along the side of my page opposite the tags. 

I also used the sticker sheet for my title - Big Smiles to finish off my page.

Carefreewith 49 and Market Artful Momentsby Fiona Siegel

Hello everyone
I just can't get enough of the stunning Artful Moments paper pad by
49 and Market,  so I have another layout to share with you all today:
Carefree

I've gone with the purple tones for this layout and still more fussy cutting - the
butterflies, of course and also these beautiful flowers! Both pattern papers that are
 part of the paper pad. Then I added the ephemera stems which come with the
 laser cut elements. 

The journaling tag is fussy cut from another patterned paper in the collection and
 I've added a little journaling before tucking it under my photos. 

More of my fussy cut flowers and butterflies, teamed up with some of the
 ephemera from the journaling bits - under my left photo.  I have then used the
same pack to add my "original" journaling word and for my "Carefree" title.

Let's Go Simple Stories Rustic Legend Kellie Moore

 Hey Everyone,

             It's Kel here today sharing a page with the Simple Stories Rustic Legend collection.

 

    I LOVE this collection, as a mum of 3 boys, I'm always looking for more masculine
 collections and this one definitely won my heart.
The warm, deep tones with a touch of woodgrain is so good!

Today I'm documenting a page of my youngest boy after receiving awards at the end of year assembly.

Here it is...

I chose a neutral paper from the collection to use as my base, then layered a bunch of the patterned papers behind my photo, making them offset at different angles to create interest.

I created a large embellishment cluster to the top left of my photo, using die cuts, stickers, brads and foam stickers. I also cut some stars from the different papers.

To the bottom right of my photo I have added my title using a foam sticker,
 again making another embellishment cluster.

I then made a smaller cluster on the left of the photo to create a visual triangle, drawing
 attention to the photo.

I hope you are inspired with this masculine page and check out this collection in the shop!

See you next time..

The Little Thingswith 49 and Market Artful Momentsby Fiona Siegel

Hello everyone
Sharing another layout with 49 and Market Artful Moments:
The Little Things

Loved the butterfly paper in this paper pack which inspired the whole page. First lots of fussy cutting over a few days then I had decided on this circle paper making it easy to create a butterfly wreath. For a bit of colour pop I mounted it on to the teal paper which I also used to matte my photo. 

I used a journaling piece as my title and tucked it alongside my photo. Next to embellish with some of the 6x12 cardstock stickers and the journaling bits. I tucked a few pieces along my photos.

Some mini titles from the journaling bits teamed up with some print pattern borders completed my design with a few little bits and bob embellishments and another fussy cut butterfly to finish off. 

Love the bow across the journaling title that ties my colours together.

Today was Good with 49andMarket Artful Momentsby Fiona Siegel

Hello everyone
This week I have created a layout using the beautiful Artful Moments collection
by Vicki Boutin for 49andMarket:
Today was Good

I wanted a predominantly pink and orange vibe for this layout - to match my
dress and the check floor, so I mounted my white cardstock on to some orange
 patterned paper and also used that to mat my photo before adding a banner in
 pink then adding a soft pastel stripe background paper to bring in all the
 other colours. 

Embellishing my layout involved a mix of Laser Cut elements - flowers and bow,
 Journaling Bits - frame and quote and some fussy cutting - butterflies. 

I adore the filigree butterflies in the Laser Cut Elements sheet, it is a reel stand
 out piece taking centre stage on my layout. I have finished off the page with the
 Today was Good title from the Journaling Bits.
