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!! 


Thanks for stopping by

Till next week

Amaze Yourself with Arden Creative Garden Chronicles by Fiona Siegel

Hello

This week I'm sharing a layout with the beautiful Garden Chronicles collection by Arden Creative, 

Amaze Yourself 



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. 



Thanks for stopping by

Till next week

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
Kel

Let's be Adventurers
with Arden Creative Been There
by 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. 




Thanks for stopping by 
till next week

Sunflowers with Uniquely Creative Sweet as Honey by Fiona Siegel

Hello everyone

This week I have created a layout using Uniquely Creatives July release Sweet as Honey collection. 

🌻 Sunflowers 🌻


For this page I chose the Sunny days paper with its large patterned sunflowers on the paper then used the reverse side to add a pop of yellow to the top corner and to matte around my photos before adding a neutral paper behind that. I used the tags paper and cut them in to shipping tags to add to the side of my layout. 


Next some 2Carfty chipboard Grid Panel which I have split in to sections then inked in green and gold to add some dimension before adding lots of the vellum embellishments of flowers and bees to my page. Love how these peel and stick. 


I finished my layout off with my title Sunflowers in black alphas by Bella Blvd. Then I added some word stickers from my stash and the Here and Now button from an older Uniquely Creative range. 


Thanks for stopping by 
Till next week
