Happy Halloween with Prima Made of Magic by Fiona Siegel

Hello everyone
As Halloween approaches I was inspired to create some extra decor and have created this coffin using a wooden store bought coffin, some 2Crafty Chipboard and the super cute and spooky Prima Made of Magic collection:

 👻Happy Halloween 👻

To start I have painted the wooden coffin in black paint then to the front sprayed some glimmer spray.  Next I have painted my 2Crafty Chipboard spider webs in white paint and glued them to the front of the coffin. 

I have used the Prima Made of Magic ephemera and Witching Hour blooms to embellish. 
Next I moved on to the inside. I painted this black aswell. Then I have used the coffin and made a templated to cut out my main papers for the back, then some complimentary papers to do the sides of the coffin 

I fussy cut this little witch from the elements paper in the 12x12 paper pack and then made her stand up by using some scrap paper, to created a 3D effect. 

The ghost on the ladder is from the ephemera pack, I have fussy cut the holes in the ladder so they weren't filled white and mounted the ghost with some cardboard to give him some extra dimension. I added an ephemera framed pic to the side of the coffin, then embellished the top of the bookshelf background with ephemera and flowers. 

On the other side of the coffin I added a fussy cut clock with some flowers and the cute ephemera ghost with spooky stories - both mounted for dimension. On the other side I added a chipboard frame from the Chipboard Stickers set I added some glitter to my older black flowers that I found in my stash and some cobwebs to the corners using the "spider web" you find in dollar stores. 

I fussy cut  the grandfather clock and mounted it in front of the clock that was on the paper as I wanted the 3D effect. To this I added the ephemera broom and pumpkin. Then I added some "spider webs" and the cute ephemera bat.

Wild at Heart with Simple Stories Simply Vintage Sand and Sea collection by Fiona Siegel

Hello everyone

A layout using Simple Stories Vintage Sand and Paper, some Carta Bella Flower Shoppe and 2Crafty Chipboard:

Wild at Heart

I love this collection and eventhough technically a beach themed collection this floral paper was my favourite so I have used this and teamed it up with a matching green floral paper which I found in the Carta Bella Flower Shoppe collection. 

I've picked the neutral white, cream flowers out of the Sand and Sea collection and added a doily and twine for texture.  To embellish I have used the Sand Sea cardstock stickers and trimmed some of the words to remove any beachy references and added a smattering of the hearts. 

I've finished the page off with this 2Crafty Chipboard title - Wild at Heart which I have simply painted white. 

Thanks for stopping by

A Day at the Zoo with Bella Blvd Zoo Day by Fiona Siegel

Hello everyone
Back with another zoo page to share with you all using the fun and super cute Zoo Day collection by Bella Blvd:
A Day at the Zoo

For this layout I wanted to use all the fun scallops on the sticker sheet as part of my design, so I started with some white cardstock then matted my photo in green to match my top and then some zoo patterned paper before adding all the scallops. I added the check print border to the white cardstock to tie it together. 

I love these super cute animal embellishments and made a cute little scene on either side of the photo, then added some "zoo" words from the sticker sheet. 

Then I finished off the page with these fabulous puffy alpha stickers by Bella Blvd - so many fun colours in these, I chose the yellow to match the Zoo sign.

Making Memories Everyday with Uniquely Creative Delighted Curiosities by Fiona Siegel

Hello everyone
Back with another layout using Uniquely Creative Delighted Curiosities and
2Crafty Chipboard. 
Making Memories Everyday

The green and blues in this collection is so pretty. I wanted the green tones to match my photo but the blue softens the page. I have used the Garden Relics paper as my base and roughed up the edges and added some torn bits. 
Next I matt my photo with a plainer paper and added some scallops and circles that I fussy cut from the Curiosity Cabinet paper and some shipping tags from the Forgotten Treasures paper. 

I've used the creative cuts pack in the range for all my flowers and butterflies as well as some mini words.

More flowers and butterflies from the creative cuts pack:

and finished off with the lovely Making Memories Everyday title by 2Crafty Chipboard. I have inked this in a mix of blue and green inks to match my paper.

It's Time to Bloom with Uniquely Creative Delightful Curiosities by Fiona Siegel

Hello everyone
This week I have this months Uniquely Creative range, Delighted Curiosities to showcase to you. 
It's Time to Bloom

With its blues and greens this collection is prefect for your outdoors photos, especially this one of my eldest daughter in her blue/green dress. I chose the background woodgrain to match the palm tree in the background and then the floral green paper to match the print in her dress. 

I've matched up these with some cute embellishments from the creative cuts pack - love the little frame which I have used as a base for my mounted flower cluster. I've added some extra flower stems and a super cute butterfly. 
Then it was some fussy cutting from the Curiosity Cabinet paper - the scallop border and the beauty circle.  

I completed my layout with this lovely 2Crafty chipboard title - It's time to Bloom.

Hello everyone
Back with another 80s share from our retreat this year using Simple Stories Totally 80s collection:

Some group photos this time from retreat. I have used the fun flouro shapes on black as my background then added some pops of fluoro pink and teal along the sides of my layout design, from the Simple Stories Color Me Happy collection. I have fussy cut the scallops from the Right Now paper and added them to either side. 

I have used the fun embellishments from the stickers set as well as some fun shapes from the Page Pieces set, giving matching embellishments to each photo, with a main cluster of some retro items - TV, Boom box and Cassette tape. 

I added a fussy cut cassette tape as well and added some 80s words to my design before adding my fab title Like Totally Awesome using the Page Pieces.

Back to the 80s with Simple Stories Totally 80s Collection by Fiona Siegel

Hello everyone
Todays layout features a fun and funky 80s theme using Simple Stories Totally 80s collection:
Back to the 80s

Back in May I went to a scrapbooking retreat with some scrapping friends and the theme was 80s! Lots of fun ! This new Simple Stories collection was perfect to document it. I love the bright and retro colours.  I've matted my white cardstock in a hot pink paper from Simple Stories Color Me Happy and Bella Blvd Gingham and Stripes paper. 

Is it even an 80s collection if there is no rollerskate? Super cute stickers are a part of this range - not just skates but some retro and neon shapes as well as some well known 80s phrases.

I've used some cute puffy stickers from an older VB collection to add some dimension. I finished off with a shipping tag fussy cut from the paper with Back to the 80s - then added some hot pink twine to finish it off as my title.

So Grateful for Youwith Carta Bella and Uniquely Creativeby Fiona Siegel

Hello everyone
Back with another layout using papers from Carta Bella Flower Shoppe Collectionand a Uniquely Creative Heart Overlay to commemorate Mothers Day this year with my girls 💗
So Grateful for You

Yes, I did make everyone dress the same for this photo! 
I love an overlay as they make an awesome feature on a layout. Uniquely Creative make a fab bunch you should definitley check out. They can be time consuming till you get the hang of backing with paper but look so effective. I like to trace the reverse side and then cut slightly wider to give an edge to glue down. 

Once the overlay is done I have stuck it too a semi plain background paper - with the white cardstock matt to match the overlay. Then I have added a double matte frame to my photo and some simple embellishments - word and bow stickers from the cardstock sticker sheet and then some flowers and enamel dots to complete. 

I've had this title in my stash for some time - its from Celebr8, and I have inked it and then added some sparkle over the word grateful to make it stand out a little more.

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!!
