Let's Get Lost with 49 & Market Vintage Artistry Hike More by Fiona Johnstone

Hello everyone
Couldn't wait to have a play with this new collection this week - 49 & Markets Vintage Artistry Hike More. I am sure we all have a few outdoorsy photos we can scrap, whether from travels or exploring our own backyards in these times!
Let's Get Lost

Oh these background papers are sooo pretty!! It was so hard to choose which ones to use but this one was just perfect for my photo taken recently along part of the coast track in the National Park. 
I've used some of the cutouts from the collection kit - firstly the frame around my photo and then the cute doily like green trim at the bottom of my photo. I've used a little paper to tuck under my photo and the top shipping tag but it's mainly die-cuts and ephemera for this one which I have used around my slightly larger than 6x4 photo to blend with the background paper. 

From the ephemera pack I have used the tags, tabs and the explore more sign, combined with the leaves and butterfly from the die-cut sheets in the pack to cluster around my photo. 
My second close up shows my second cluster - butterfly and tags from the diecut sheets, ephemera leaves and a cute 2Crafty compass. My little title "Let's Get Lost" is from the collection pack 

Thanks for stopping byTill next week

The yellow tab is a Cardstock Sticker

is another cluster of Cardstock Stickers.

Some have been stuck directly to the page

and others I have added with foam tape

to create different layers.

I've cut a scalloped strip of Raven Cardstock

and added it to the page vertically along the patterned papers.

The 2 Crafty View Finder has been

covered with Distress Paint.

Once dry, I have backed the View Finder

with One More Cup paper.

I have added more Cardstock Stickers

So Happy with Pinkfresh Studios The Best Day by Fiona Johnstone

Hello everyone
This week I have created a layout with the new Pinkfresh collection The Best Day.
Love the blues and yellows in this collection. 
So Happy

When I saw this collection, the first thing I loved was this background paper
- Love you Always - it is the perfect frame for creating your layout.
I've built up this frame with the flowers and leaves from the Floral Ephemera Pack:

I added a couple of paper layers to my photo, and then I focused on using both
ephemera packs and the accessory stickers to add detail around my photo:

My title is from the regular ephemera pack and I've made a little cluster with the floral ephemera, finishing off with a little phrase sticker from CVS.

Sweet Life with Pinkfresh Studio Happy Blooms by Fiona Johnstone

Hello everyone
Last layout with the Pinkfresh Studios Happy Blooms collection! I have really enjoyed creating with this collection, I love the colours in it so much. 
Sweet Life

I adore the purple papers in this collection and they were perfect to match Zara's favourite dress! It can be a lot in big doses so I have broken it up to use as a border for my cardstock then added some in my paper layers.
Pink and purple go together so well, so I added a masked background using a VB floral stencil and some Distress Oxide in Kitsch Flamingo, then added some splatters. 

After adding my paper layers I have hit both ephemera packs to embellish my layout - love these flowers, slightly different to the ones in the rest of the floral ephemera pack! 
I've kept with the flower aspects and added a bee from the reverse of the purple paper and a puffy butterfly from CVS.  My title is a combo of the word Life from the ephemera pack and a puffy sticker from an older Pinkfresh range.

Killin' it using Photo Play Tulla & Norbet's Sweet As Honey by Kerryn Fry

Good morning everyone!Today I am sharing a double page,with multiple photos, created with the collectionPhoto Play Tulla & Norbet's Sweet as Honey.
The colours in this range were perfectto match these soccer photosand the patterns on the 'B' side of the pagesworked perfectly.This is Mr H in his element.

Left Side

Right Side

I have used Bazzill Kraft Cardstock

as the starting point for this double page.

The background effect has been created with

a net stencil from my stash

and Distress Oxide Inks

Wild Honey and Hickory Smoke.

I've used stars as the main embellishment on the page.

Some hand cut transparencies and die-cut stars

in various sizes have been die-cut from the patterned papers.

Some of the patterned paper edges have been torn 

to add rough edges and expose the white core of the papers.

The large soccer ball and soccer figures 

have been die-cut from Bazzill Raven Cardstock

and Kaisercraft Premium White cardstock.

The Darkroom Door stamp has been stamped with 

Black ink onto the Kaisercraft Premium White

and then matted with the black cardstock.

They have been added to the page with foam tape.

The speech bubbles and words have been die cut

from cardstock and added to the page with foam tape.

The journal card has been cut from

You're a Keeper paper and the bee

discreetly hidden with a well placed sentiment.

The hand-painted soccer ball

is from the 2 Crafty 6x6 Soccer sheet.

I've covered it with white gesso

and Black Soot Distress Paint.

The 2 Crafty Chevron Bits

have also been painted with Black Soot.

The reverse side of Bee Keeper paper

was a great pattern to cut vertical strips

and cut into various size arrows.

The pieces were added to the page 

with foam tape to create some movement on the page.

The 2 Crafty title Killin' It has been

covered with Black Soot Distress Paint

and added to the left side of the page,

lifting it with foam tape to add more dimension.

Thank you for visiting the blog today.

Hopefully you have been inspired by the page.

Have a great weekend and happy crafting.

Please join us here again on Monday

for Fiona's next project.

You are my Sunshine with Pinkfresh Studio Happy Blooms by Fiona Johnstone

Hello everyone
Today I have a quick layout with some more Pinkfresh Studio Happy Blooms! 
You are my Sunshine

Love this background paper, so stunning and creates the most beautiful floral frame for your layout. So with that in mind I cut down my photo so I could add some paper layers and it would still fit within the frame. 
Naturally a few more flowers from the Floral ephemera pack were needed, as well as some bits and pieces from the regular Ephemera pack. 

Like last time, I used a mix of stickers and embellishments from some of the other Pinkfresh collections and I have also used a little CVS These Days embellishments. I've fussy cut the butterfly and also the tag at the top of the photo, then created a shipping tag from leftover paper. 
My title is a little quote from the Pinkfresh Ephemera pack, I wanted something small enough to work within the frame design.

Always Follow Your Dreams using Bella Blvd To The Moon by Kerryn Fry

Good morning everyone.

The page I'm sharing today has been created with

Bella Blvd To The Moon.

The photo of Mr H was taken in July 2009

after his first day of school.

I think he might have enjoyed himself.

The base is my favourite Bazzill Kraft cardstock,

but only a small amount of the kraft remains visible.

For the background effect, I have used

the Echo Park I Love School 6x6 Grid Stencil

and Distress Oxide Inks Chipped Sapphire 

and Hickory Smoke.

Love the result!

The photo has been matted with Bazzill Raven cardstock

and then layered with the reverse side of the Borders paper.

I have created the embellishment cluster in the 

top right corner of the photo with

stickers from the 12x12 Doo Hickey Sticker Sheet.

The date is also from the sticker sheet.

The paper layers under the photo

alternate with dark and light patterns.

I've used a border punch on the Imagine paper

and a black gel pen to add a border to

Sky's the Limit and Imagine pages.

The quote has been hand cut from the Borders paper

and added to the page using foam tape.

The yellow corners are from the Sticker Sheet

and have also been lifted with foam tape.

The heart strip is cut from the borders paper

and added to the bottom of the photo.

I've then clustered some stickers

around the bottom left corner of the photo.

The heart sticker has been lifted with foam tape.

The 2 Crafty title Always follow your Dreams

has been covered Hickory Smoke Distress Paint.

I have added it directly to the page with glue.

Thank you for visiting the blog today.

I hope you are inspired by the page

and have a chance to create over the weekend.

Please join us again on Monday

for Fiona's next project.
