Game On!
with Simple Stories Game Night
by Fiona Siegel

Hello everyone

Back this week with another layout created using Simple Stories Game Night collection:

Game On!


I love the bright colours in this collection and decided to use black cardstock for a change - love how the colours pop on this! I chose a full strip of paper to go across the page and then some black and white check. I matted my photo with some red to tie in with my photo. 


Next I have used the tags from the tag elements sheet to embellish and also as a small subheading. I added some twine to complete them. Next some simple embellishments with the Page Pieces set and some fussy cut tags under my photo. I've not used the page pieces previously but have to say they are pretty awesome and I especially love the giant title!



Thanks for stopping by
Till next week

Living the Good Life
49 & Market Artful Moments
Kellie Moore

Welcome to the Blog today.

It's Kel here sharing a layout using the new collection by 49 & Market called
Artful Moments  which is designed by Vicki Boutin.
 I have always been a fan of Vicki's designs and this collection is fun.

Today I'm scrapbooking two photos of my nephew. I wanted to use some of
the 'arty' pieces from the collection so these photos were perfect.

 Here is a look at my page.


I have used one of the papers from the 'Starters' range....paper 6 which has a mixed media
 look without having to do any of the messy work. I thought this was perfect as it is a
 page about painting.

I have cut a large circle from an orange piece of patterned paper to start my page and have
 placed my photos on it, layering some laser cuts and paper strips under my photos.


I then decided to run with the circle shape, cutting a bunch of circles in different sizes
to add above and below my photos.
 
Before sticking the circles down I added some stamping to my background to give  
more layers.


My title is from the 6x8 Papercraft Essentials pack....this pack is filled with lots of extra
embellishments great for making a mini album or to use in regular scrapbooking.


I then filled in my page with a bunch of the embellishments from the ephemera packs,
 rub ons, laser cuts.


I hope you found some inspiration today and check this collection out in the shop...
See you next time

The Best Days with Simple Stories Pink Lemonade

Hello everyone

This weeks layout is created with the very pretty Simple Stories Pink Lemonade Collection. 


The Best Days



I've used a mix of the patterned papers and put it in to layered strips across the page before adding my photos and then embellishing with the12x12 Cardstock Sticker Sheets. 



Next I've used a cute doily behind the sweet happy days sticker quote, then added some Green Tara flowers




I've used a tag from the Tag Elements sheet and added some twine to tuck under my photo before using the sticker sheet for my title The Best and adding some word stickers for days. 
I've finished my page off with a few enamels dots to match the collection. 



Thanks for stopping by

Till next week
