One of a Kind using Celebr8 Just Be You by Kerryn Fry

Hello everyone!
Today I am sharing another page created with the 
amazing paper pack Celebr8 Just Be You.

The photo of my beautiful niece was taken
on an adventure with her Mum in August 2021.
They were on the search for snow 
near their home in country Victoria.

The base of the page is my usual 
I've layered the patterned paper
pieces under the photo, balancing
the solid colours with the lighter patterns.

At the top of the page, I've added a torn strip
of the foliage paper and some hand cut pieces,
the Hive, the orange and some leaves.
Using a gold pen, I've add some
fake stitch lines to random elements.


I've created three main embellishment
 clusters on the page using with the 
hand cut elements from the papers.

The quote is from the barcode strip and 
has been cut into 3 parts and added to the
'blank area' of the photo with foam tape. 
Glue in Crystal to highlight each letter.


The hand cut hexagons in varies sizes
have also been lifted with foam tape
and the 'Unstoppable' tab.


On the the left side of the photo,
there are some patterned paper banner 
pieces that have been outlined with gold pen.

I've added a leafy corner piece
to frame the left side of photo and added
some Tim Holtz quote pieces.


At the bottom left corner of the photo,
there are larger hexagon pieces
and orange slices. More gold highlights
Love the sparkle! 


The third cluster is the bottom
right corner of the photo.
More orange slices, a hive piece,
leaves and the title piece.
All of the elements have been 
hand cut from the patterned papers.

The title 'One of a Kind' fits perfectly.
I've added a border with gold pen
and lifted the piece with foam tape.
There are a few more Tim Holtz pieces
added under the title.

As a finishing touch to the page,
I've add extra highlights with the 
Stickles Glitter Glue in the flower centres
and spots  on the patterned papers.


Thank you for visiting the blog today.
I hope you have been inspired by the page
and have a relaxing, crafty weekend.
Join us again on Monday for
Fiona's next project.

Yesteryears using Celebr8 Just For You by Kerryn Fry

Hi everyone!
Today I'm sharing another page created 
with the collection Celebr8 Just for You.
Thought I would try a vintage look 
with this range and I'm happy with the result.

The photo was taken in the early 1920's,
a family snap of the maternal ancestors of my family.
The two ladies on the left side are my 
Grandmother and Great-Grandmother.


I've used the black spot patterned 
paper as the base for this page.
Then I have layered patterned papers
with torn edges on the top.

The hexagon pieces have been hand cut
from one of the patterned papers, along with a tag.
This pieces have been tucked under the torn layers.

The tab was also hand cut
from one of the patterned papers.
I've used foam tape to lift each element.


On each side of the photo I have added
hand cut embellishments with foam tape.
I've added some of the remaining hexagons
left over from the previous layout.


Love the simplicity of the oranges, blossoms
and the leaves to frame the photo.
The photo has been layered on a black
patterned paper and then another layer of 
the lighter orange patterned paper.

The photo has been lifted with foam tape
and I have added a border strip under the photo.
The strip is a barcode strip hand cut 
from the patterned papers


covered with patterned paper and
then backed with lighter paper.
I will use this as a journal spot
for the page to add some heritage details.


I've added some extra detail to certain
elements on the page with a gold gel pen.
I have outlined some of the hexagons,
outlined the tag and added some details to
the smaller hexagons pieces. 
 

covered with gold ink and added to the
base of the photo. 


Thank you for visiting the blog today.
I hope you have been inspired by the page.
This collection is just amazing, I am loving it!

Have a great Christmas weekend
and hopefully, once the crazy time is over
you get a chance to relax and craft.

Please join us again on Monday
for Fiona's next project.

Love You using Celebr8 Just For You by Kerryn Fry


Hello crafters!
Today's page is another one created with
the gorgeous collection pack Celebr8 Just For You.
In the pack there is a full sheet of different sized
hexagons in a variety of colours and patterns.
I just had to cut them out and put a page together.

The B&W photos are of my absolutely,
amazing younger sister who lives in Queensland.
Just wanted to highlight how incredible she is.


I've used my usual Bazzill Kraft Cardstock as the 
neutral colour works so well with this collection.
I've used a hexagon 6x6 stencil from my stash 
and gold ink to create the background effect
around the outer edge of the cardstock.

The the fun began!
Cutting out all of the hexagons, big and small.
I made a plan of the layout and then started 
sticking the hexagons to the page,
using with double-sided tape and 
some foam squares for dimension.


The words and quotes have been hand cut
from another paper in the collection.
I have outlined the darker hexagons
with a fake stitch border using a gold pen.


The photos were also cut into hexagon shapes.
The larger B&W photo was layered onto patterned 
paper before sticking it to the page.

I've also hand cut some hexagon clusters
from another patterned paper and cut
out some bees to add to the page.


I have overlapped some of the pieces
and spaced others evenly apart.
The smaller black hexagons worked well
to fill some of the gaps and balanced 
out the black across the page.


Lots of positive quotes on some of the shapes
and beautiful colours and patterns.
The bees were a great addition across the 
page and have been lifted with foam squares.



All of the photos have been framed
with a gold pen border and lifted with foam.
I love the pop of green across the page too.


The title of the page has been created
I've used foam squares on alternating letters
to stagger the title.


Thank you for dropping in to the Blog today.
I hope all of the fussy cutting hasn't scared
you away, I love the result.
Have a fabulous weekend!
Please join us again on Monday
for Fiona's next project.

Be You using Celebr8 Just Be You by Kerryn Fry

Good morning everyone!
Today I'm sharing another page created with 
the beautiful collection Celebr8 Just Be You.
A rare selfie taken after a short hair cut
in August last year. It's long again now! 


The page has started with a 12x12 piece 
of Bazzill Kraft Cardstock for the base.
I knew I intended to use the wreath hand 
cut from the patterned paper on the page.

The simple background effect has been created 
to appear around the outside edge of the wreath edge.
Using the Crafters Workshop 6x6 Mini Tiny Circles and 
white ink, I have added some light details on the cardstock.

Using a white paint pen, I have added
some splashes across the page as well.


I've hand cut some of the half oranges
to add some extra dimension to the wreath.
Some of the leaves on the wreath have
been outlined with a gold pen.

The quote 'Beauty Begins' is from the barcode strip,
I have cut it into two pieces and cut flags each end.
I've used foam tape to add it to the page.


The large 2 Crafty Anthea's Butterfly frame has been 
covered with black ink and backed with patterned paper.
I have only used adhesive in the centre of the butterfly 
frame and paper, to allow it to have some movement & dimension.

cut into smaller pieces and covered with Mowed Lawn 
& Rustic Wilderness Distress Paint.

been covered with black patterned paper
and the smaller frames have been backed 
with a lighter patterned paper.


I have added a few more hand cut elements
from the collection to the page.
The orange bloom to the left of the photo
and a cluster of oranges to the bottom
of the photo under the butterflies.

have been covered with a combination of 
Mustard See, Fossilized Amber and 
Spiced Marmalade Distress paint.
I've finished the butterflies with a layer of
Dimensional Magic for a shiny finish.

The title is the Be You banner
hand cut form the patterned paper.


Thanks for visiting the blog today.
Hopefully you have been inspired to create.
Enjoy your weekend, do something you love
and join us again on Monday.

Happiness is this using Just For You Celebr8 by Kerryn Fry

Hello everyone!
Today I'm sharing my second page
created with the beautiful collection

The photos of a younger Mr H
were taken at Botanic Park in 2009,
amongst the massive fig trees.
Love how well the t-shirt matches!


I've used Bazzill Kraft Cardstock 
as a sturdy base for the layout.
The patterned paper layers are the main
feature of the page with a torn edge
across the bottom of each paper.

At the top of the page, I've used a strip
of patterned paper cut from one of the 
embellishment papers and then layered
a hand cut border strip underneath.


The photos have been layered on 
the orange patterned paper to pop the 
colours on the t-shirt.

I've hand cut some tags to tuck 
under the photo and used a gold pen 
to add borders to some of the layers.


There was some fussy cutting done
for the leaves, bees and hexagon pieces.
I've used foam tape to add the 
pieces to the page to create layers
and dimension.


The words have been hand cut
from the patterned papers and then
added to the bottom of the photos.


All of the hexagons have been cut
from the patterned paper.
The larger hexagons have been 
add to the left of the photos to create
an embellishment cluster.


The small black hexagons have 
been added to either side of 
the photos in small clusters.
I've used foam tape to lift 
them off the base of the page.


has provided the title 'happiness is this'
for the page. I have covered the chipboard
with gold ink and added the title 
to the bottom of the large hexagon.

The gold pen borders around the paper 
pieces ties in the gold on the page.


Thanks for visiting the blog today,
I hope you have been inspired by the page.
Have a lovely weekend and join us
again on Monday with Fiona's next page.

Happy Friday everyone!
The page I'm sharing with you today
has been created with the beautiful 
collection Celebr8 Just Be You.
The B&W photo is a rare selfie taken
back in June at a winery 
in the Barossa Valley. 


The black base paper is BE(YOU)TIFUL,
a great contrast against the lighter colours.
I've used a gold pen to highlight
some of the hexagon details on the paper.

The hand cut hexagons are from the 
the reverse side of the cover sheet.
I've added them to the page in the top
right corner and just below the photo 
using foam tape.


The decorative corners have also
been hand cut from the cover sheet.
I've added them to opposite corners
of the page and lifted the edges with foam tape.


The leaves and flowers are hand cut
from the cover sheet and added with foam tape.
to the flowers and buds.


The paper layers under the photo are
from the cut-apart paper, all varies size pieces.
The black 6x4 card directly under the photo
has been outlined with a gold pen.
 
The small tags and words have been
hand cut from the AUTHENTIC paper.
The black tag has been outlined
with a gold pen and the tops of
the tags have been lifted with foam tape.


The two zig-zig pieces on the page
are both barcode strips from the paper.
I've hand cut the pieces to add to the page.

The title for the page is from the 
'Create your own sunshine'.
I've covered the title with Brilliance gold ink
and sealed it with Dimensional Magic.


Absolutely love this collection!
