Born to Ride with Echo Park Summer Break by Fiona Siegel

Hello everyone
Super cute boy page today using Echo Park Summer Break
Born to Ride

For this layout I chose the bike and summer themed paper as my main paper and added some coordinating colours. I decided to matt the white cardstock in pale blue to match the top and then added some sploshes of ink to the background. 

I've used the  Echo park Summer Break sticker sheet embellish my layout along with some enamel stars and a pinkfresh sticker from my stash.
The cute 2Crafty Chain is a fun element to run across the page with the arrows from the sticker sheet and then the perfect element a little bike sticker. 

Finishing off with my title using a mix of thickers and some extra enamel stars!

A Moment to Remember with 49andMarket Botanicals by Fiona Siegel

Hello everyone
This week I have another layout to share using the stunning 49andMarket Botanicals collection:
A Moment to Remember

Again I have used one of the beautiful background full of beautiful florals for my layout. I have added some neutral papers around my two photos before using the adorable laser cut honeycombs to decorate my layout, I have added some of the inserts, mounted with some foam tape as well as some additional bees. Across the top of my photo I have tucked some ephemera tickets and tags. 

I've added some laser cut flowers to the side of my page and finished off with another title from the chipboard titles collection.

Picture Perfect with 49and Market Botanical Buzz by Fiona Siegel

Hello everyone
This week I have the new 49andMarket Botanicals to scrap with. Great range for outdoors photos, and perfect for a recent quick visit to New Zealand:

Picture Perfect

The background papers in 49andMarket really do a LOT of the work for you! Makes it easy to get some layouts done, especially if you have a lot to do! For this page I took the inspiration from the background paper and used the matching hessian style paper and some yellow hexagon print. I then teamed that up with some doilies that matched the background. 

The various hexagons in this collection are just too cute and I have used then on both corners of my photo with some flowers - a mix of the Die Cut Elements and the Laser Cut elements. Next a tag with some twine from my stash in a matching yellow and a ticket stub. 

I added some extra flowers from the laser cut elements to the left hand side and fussy cut the remember this from the advertising strip along one of the papers. I finished my layout off with a matching title "Picture Perfect" from the chipboard set.

Captured Moments with49andMarket Beach Vibesby Fiona Siegel

Hello everyone
This week back with 49 and Market Beach Vibes for another layout from my daughters vacay:
Captured Moments

I really wanted to use this floral paper as the main featured paper for this layout, I added an orange border and then the the thatched roof paper across to break it up a little cause the floral is pretty busy! I then chose my background paper - the plainer beach scene for the perfect background colours. 

Love the thatched roof drinks bar in the Laser-cut Elements pack, makes a standout embellishment and then I teamed it up with some flower clusters from the same pack, matching the paper. I've used the advertising strip to create my journaling. 

Finishing off with my title from Vicki Boutin Where to Next Thickers.

Discover Places with Simple Stories Happy Travels by Fiona Siegel

Hello everyone

Back with more Japan travel pages, this time scrapping a unique Japanese experience:
Discover Places

For this layout I wanted to focus on the pinks and then added the dark blue for contrast, love the combo together mixed with some stripes and florals. I've gone for a linear design with my papers then teamed it up with some shipping tags, two tucked to the left and one as a quote. 

Always love a little twine around my tags, in this instance, just the main one to draw focus to it. I've embellished with some of the foam sticker hearts from the collection and then added some cute paper pink flowers from my stash.

I finished my page off with my title Discover Places, using the foam stickers from the collection.

Exploring with Simple Stories Happy Travels by Fiona Siegel

Hello
Back with some of my travel snaps, this time Osaka Castle using Simple Stories Happy Travels collection:
Exploring 

For this page I wanted to focus on the greens in the water and the castle roof and this range teamed that up perfectly with fresh orange and some light teal. 
The map base made the perfect neutral background, to which I added strips of paper top and bottom to give extra colour pop. 
Next I layered some papers and added an extra photo with a shipping tag before embellishing with the ephemera and foam stickers. I have added some bright orange flowers to match and some older stickers and a go see do enamel brad from my stash.

Hello with 49andMarket Beach Vibes by Fiona Siegel

Hello everyone
Today's layout is a sunrise photo my daughter got on her recent island holiday. Loving this collection for these snaps of hers:
Hello

For this layout I have used another paper with a pretty background and used the laser cut elements to add more detail. First though, some pretty paper layers around my photo, added a tear along the bottom which then starts to blend colour wise with the background, the tear breaks that up and adds texture. For more texture I cut my strip of paper underneath my photo into strips to match the bamboo print. 

Of course the laser elements are perfection and give that awesome detail. I have balanced out my page by adding the palm tree element to the left side of my page and then some fun detail with the sandcastle and ball . The little seagull and the rope along my photo are from a previous 49andMarket collection - Summer Porch. 

These cute Surfboards I fussy cut from the back of the Laser Cut elements packet - love how they utilise all the packaging. Teamed them up with a floral laser cut and an Island Time chip from Summer Porch range. A smattering of starfish finish my embellishing. 
Lastly I added my title Hello, dug through the stash for this wood veneer.

Relax with 49andMarket Beach Vibes Collection by Fiona Siegel

Hello everyone
Back this week with some 49andMarket Beach Vibes for scrapping some warm holiday
 snaps of one of my girls.
Relax

Love the colours in this collection, and the preprinted background on this paper is perfect for this photo of my daughter on a recent island getaway. 
I have used some of the more neutral background papers to matt my photo a few times and fussy cut the golden sands tab from one of the papers advertising stripe - love when they have that extra bit you can use in your pages and the tabs are awesome!

Next I have used embellishments from the Beach Vibes Laser Cut Elements pack to embellish my page.
I have made a little cluster with the beach umbrella, bag, flowers, coconuts and a drink on the right hand side. The left side of the page that has the busier background print I have added some simple flowers alongside the fussy cut tag.

Dancerwith Carta Bella That's my Girlby Fiona Siegel

Hello everyone
A bit of a break from the holiday snaps to scrap a girly page of my great niece and
 one of her on the way to ballet photos :Dancer

When I saw this cute ballerina paper in the Carta Bella That's my Girl collection,
 I knew it would be perfect for this little dancer.
I have teamed it up with other predominantly pink papers and added a pink border
 around a plain white cardstock background. 

Next up I made my own little embellishment combining a small doily, a fussy cut
circle from the patterned paper and the ballerina stickers from the
  Element Cardstock Sticker Sheet. 

Next up I have used these stunning Green Tara flowers to make cute clusters
 and added some ballet slippers and a cute word sticker to the page. 
I have then added a simple title with some pink Thicker Stickers and added
 a sprinkling of heart stickers from the 12x12 sticker sheet.

Wander with Mintay Wildwood Secrets by Fiona Siegel

Hello
This weeks layout another holiday snap with Mintay papers Wildwood Secrets:
Wander

I love the designs Mintay create on their papers, you literally could just stick a photo on and be done! This paper was no exception, but I have added to the page. I have chosen a busy background which suits using plainer papers for matting photos, which I have done here, using a woodgrain, a green vine pattern and red with white spots around my photo. 

Next I have fussy cut from Paper 6, creating a tag to tuck under my photo, adding some twine to complete it. I have fussy cut the cute strawberry on a woodgrain circle which has the bonus of hiding the background people in my photo. 

Next some pretty white fantasy blooms from Green Tara with some Mintay leaves, a cute deer from the Die-Cuts pack. 

My title, Wander, is from the Simple Stories Woodlands range - foam stickers, as is the small heart next to the deer.

Strawberry Delights with Doodlebug Berry Sweet by Fiona Siegel

Hello everyone
A fun one today with Doodlebug Sweet Berry Collection, documenting some of the strawberry foods I had over in Japan!
Strawberry Delights

For this layout I started with my papers that featured strawberries, then picked some to coordinate and grabbed the sticker sheet too! I went with a white background and added some pink hearts - to show my love of all things strawberry. A light stenciling and a few sploshes before layering up the papers. 

After the papers I have used a bunch of the cardstock stickers to embellish, adding some Green Tara flowers too. Love how cute the Doodlebug phrases and embellishments are!

Then I added a title, using a lovely bright green to pop off the page and a lighter pink to compliment the layout.
