Winter Wonderland using Simple Stories Simple Vintage Winter Woods by Kerryn Fry

Hello everyone!The layout I'm sharing with you today has been created with the collectionSimple Stories Simple Vintage Winter Woods.The photos of Mr H were taken in 2018on our last trip to Lake Mountain in Victoria.

The base of the page is Bazzill Kraft Cardstock.

The background effect has been created in two stages. 

The first layer is Distress Oxide Inks 

Evergreen Bough and Salvaged Patina.

I've combined both colours on a plastic scrap,

sprayed it with water and mixed them together.

With a round paint brush I've added 

splashes to the outer area of the cardstock.

Once dry, I've used the Vicki Boutin Evergreen & Holly

Snowflake stencil and white paint to add

some random flakes to the background.

At the top of the photos I've added the smaller 

bird embellishment from the Page Pieces pack.

The embellishment has been lifted

with foam tape for extra dimension.

The 'Day to Remember' piece on the 

left side of the photos has been hand cut 

from 4x4 Elements paper. I've added it to 

a journal card cut from the Journaling Elements paper.

The 2 Crafty Winter Twig Branches has been

covered with white gesso and then

Salvage Patina Distress Paint.

Once it was dry, I've added

Ranger Stickles Glitter Glue

to some of the branches.

On the right side of the photos, I've used

more embellishments from the Page Pieces.

The 'Snow' card has been tucked under

the photo layer with the top edge lifted

with foam tape. The larger bird has been added

with foam tape and then a little Glitter

Glue to the star on the card.

At the base of the snow card I've added

a second 2 CraftyWinter Twig Branch

and another hand cut embellishment.

The 'Love this most' embellishment was

hand cut from 4x6 Elements paper.

The title for the layout Winter Wonderland

is from the Page Pieces pack.

I've added it to the page with foam squares

and the decorated it with Ranger Stickles Glitter Glue.

Thank you for dropping by the Blog today.

I hope my page has inspired you to create

or at least cooled you down a little.

Have a great weekend and

join us again on Monday.

The base of the page is my usual

pieces under the photo, balancing

the solid colours with the lighter patterns.

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

and Stickles Glitter Glue.

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.

Happy Friday everyone!The page I am sharing todayhas been created with the collection,Cocoa Vanilla Studio No Limits.The photos are from 2009,Mr H aged 5 at Glenelg Beach.His outfit matched the collection perfectly.

For something different this week, the base today

 is a 12x12 sheet of Bazzill Raven Cardstock.

I thought the black would pop the colour a little more.

At the top of the page, I've used a strip

of Big Bang 'wood panel' paper,

 some hand cut stars from Nebula paper

and a journal spot from Universal paper.

I've used a gold gel pen to add 

a faux stitch line across the page

and gold ink to colour the 

Thicker numbers for the date.

There are multiple paper layers

under the photos, then I have used more 

hand cut pieces from the Universal paper

to embellish the page.

and it has been lifted with foam tape.

I've used a black gel pen to add borders

to some of the paper elements.

The photos have been matted with another

layer of black cardstock.

The words to left of the photos

are a mixture of hand cut elements 

and stickers from the Accessory Sheet.

The elements have been lifted with foam tape.

I have added a little sparkle

to some of the elements on the page with 

the Ranger Stickles Crystal Glitter Glue.

The rainbow journal 3x4 card

was hand cut from the Universal paper

and lifted with foam tape.

The black banner journal element

was also cut from the Universal paper.

The bottom right corner of the page

is a combination of hand cut journal card

and sticker elements from the Accessory Sheet.

Gold Ink and added to the page.
