So Lovely with Cocoa Vanilla Studio Bloom and Grow by Fiona Siegel

Hello everyone
Creating with the beautiful Bloom and Grow collection by Cocoa Vanilla Studio this week!
So Lovely

For this page I have added an inner wreath to the wreath paper. Firstly I used my We are Memory Keepers Circle Cutter to cut a circle in the centre of the paper, then I stuck the reverse patter back down. Then I hit the floral ephemera pack to make a wreath around the circle. 

I have added a smaller photo inside the wreath and added some embellishments from the sticker accessory sheet and the floral ephemera to embellish
I have finished the layout off with a title from the CVS chipboard title sheet, added a coat of gesso, then inked in Distress Ink.

Definition of a Teenager using Bella Blvd Teen Vibe Carson by Kellie Moore

Hey Everyone,
It's Kel here today to share a page using the new Bella Blvd Teen Vibe Carson collection.
 This is a masculine collection which is great to document the males in our lives. The collection
has lots of great icons including gaming, sport, teen slang etc. I'm documenting a photo
 of one of my boys lying on the couch with his phone...I'm sure all parents of teens can
relate to their kids being permanently attached to them!

To the bottom of my page I used some of the border strips found on the 'Borders' paper along
 with some strips from other papers in the collection to create a base for my photo.
 I have placed my photo to the left of the page. Above the photo I have used some of
the ephemera pieces and cut out some of the word bubbles from the 'Borders' paper also.

I worked on my title using the alphabet from the 12 x 12 sticker sheet, and the Teenage word
 is from the Chipboard Stickers... the scallop border under my title is also from the
 chipboard stickers.

Above my title I also added some stickers and ephemera pieces...

I hope you liked my share today and you check this collection out in the store.

 Have a good week!

Kel :)

Heart This with 49andMarket Summer Porch by Fiona Siegel

Hello everyone
This week I'm back with some 49andMarket Summer Porch with a little mix of
Spectrum Gardenia thrown in!

Heart This 

The colours in this collection were perfect for my photo of my eldest ready to go out
 one night. I have stuck with the red and green combo of the Summer Porch
collection and added some bits and pieces from the Gardenia range.
 One of the awesome things about 49andMarket products is how well they mix and match!! 
Here some of the Laser cut embellishments from Summer Porch and some chipboard
 from Spectrum Gardenia, plus a cute epoxy!

I've layered up some papers from the collection under my photo, again sticking with
the red and green combo, adding some tags and a cute butterfly!

The paper was busy, but I still added a little rub-on from the Summer Porch transfer
set alongside the matted photo to add more focus to my image. 
Some chipboard titles and butterflies from Gardenia to match my theme - but there
 are lots of red titles in Summer Porch chipboard that match too!

AC/DC LaneUniquely Creative "Steampunk Graffiti" by Fiona Siegel

Hello everyone
Using the fab Uniquely Creative Steampunk Graffiti to document some more pics from our Melbourne trip:
AC/DC Lane

The paper is just so perfect for any graffiti art photos! I have teamed the paper up with some black cardstock and black paint before adding some embellishments from the Creative Cuts and Dimensional Stickers 

I've then used some 2Crafty pieces to suit the musical theme - this awesome guitar - which I painted to kinda match one of the AC/DC guitars,  and some musical notes. I also got the title cut specially - just used a puffy sticker for my lightning bolt!

Pedal to the Metal49 & Market "Rust and Revs" By Kellie Moore

Hello Scrappy Friends, it's Kel here today sharing a page I made using the new collection
from 49 & Market called 'Rust and Revs'.
 It's a very masculine collection with lots of cars, grungy wood papers and I think is perfect for documenting some of the older men in your life.

Today I'm documenting a page of my son when he got his first car...this collection is perfect!

I started my page with a frame from the ephemera pack to frame my photo, then used 3 papers

 from the collection pack to layer behind my photo, cutting them at different lengths.

Behind my photo I have also used some gauze and a piece from 2Crafty to add interest.

For my title I used the large 'Petal to the Metal' piece from the ephemera pack and popped it
up on foam tape along with my photo so it creates dimension.

Around my title I used some of the rub-ons and laser cuts to add more layers...and I used
2Crafty chevrons to point to my title. 

To the bottom left of my photo I have added some ephemera pieces and the chains are from
 the laser cuts.

Above my photo I have used more of the ephemera.

You can also see I added some stenciling to my background as it was feeling a little to white!

I hope you have enjoyed my page and you check out this collection in the store, its lots of fun!

Stay Crafty! 

Kel

"Street Art" With Uniquely Creative "Steampunk Graffiti" By Fiona Siegel

Hello everyone
Today I am back with the very cool Steampunk Graffiti collection by Uniquely Creative. Perfect papers for my recent trip to Melbourne and some of the local alleyways:
Street Art

I've chosen a neutral background for my busy photo, then added some of the bright fun graffitied paper to the top and bottom with tears to add to the grunge. Next I have hit up the ephemera pieces in the Creative Cuts pack and used these all around my photo:

Love the cute steampunk elements!

I've used the puffy Dimensional Stickers for part of my title and some older thickers I had in my stash to bring in the blue. I then finished off with some small paint splatters in black  - it is quite a busy page so didn't want to overdo the paint!!

Me & My DadWith "Vicki Boutin Bold and Bright" by Fiona Siegel

Hello everyone
Another share with Vicki Boutin Bold & Bright. This week in honour of Fathers Day, I have a layout featuring my Dad and I - taken a few years back, I had forgotten about these photos, some happy memories:
Me & My Dad 

I am loving all the arches in this collection and again have used one as my feature - the Prism paper. I've used a piece from the paperie pack to matt my photo then layered up some patterned papers - the red to match Dads shirt and then I have brought in some pops of yellow. 

Embellishments are from the Paperie pack - a mix of paper and cardstock. Then I have added some foam hearts from the thicker phrases for some dimension. 

I have finished off with a 2Crafty Chipboard title - Me & my Dad which I have simply inked in black so it stands out.

Sunny Days | Simple Stories Simple Vintage Linen Market | Kel Moore

Hello Scrappy friends.
Welcome back to the blog, it's Kel here today to share a page I created using the Simple Stories
Simple Vintage Linen Market collection.
 I really love the navy, yellow and red in this collection and the mix of florals and butterflies. I'm documenting some cute photos of my son and our dog when she was still a puppy... 

I decided to use yellow as my main background paper then cut a large circle to anchor my photos
 to the page. I have used one photos at the top left and two photos to the bottom right with my
 tile running through the middle. 
To the top photo I have used some tags and florals to embellish with a large butterfly to the right
 of my photo to fill in the space above my title.

To the bottom right photo I have used florals and butterflies...

 

To the bottom left photo I have added a layered stickerand a butterfly from the foam stickers..

I used the foam stickers for my title...they make such a statement on a page..

I hope you like my page and you check out this collection in the store.
Have a scrappy week!

Kel :)

You Rock with Vicki Boutin Bold and Bright by Fiona Siegel

Hello everyone
My turn to play with the Vicki Boutin Bold and Bright this week, and I have created a page featuring my great niece hamming it up. 
You Rock

I love the design of the arches in this paper - In the Details - so fussy cut the arches from one side as my feature paper, before adding some torn layers from the range then fussy cut some of the journaling tab pieces from the 4x6 papers. 

A little background detail with some Distress Oxide in Spiced Marmalade to break up the white of the cardstock. Next it was time to embellish and this time I bought the Paperie Pack - 200 pieces of mixed ephemera such great value!

Can never go past some foam Thickers and love this mixed pack of phrases - a bit of extra dimension to the page. I finished off with the perfect 2Crafty title - You Rock.

Christmas with Simple Stories Santa's Village by Fiona Siegel

Hello everyone
I was so excited to get my hands on this new Santa's Village range by Simple Stories
 that I had to create with it straight away!


I decided to make a cover page for my Christmas Album this year:

Christmas

When I saw this adorable snow globe, I couldn't resist making a cute scene with the adorable elements from the North Pole Bits. First I have fussy cut the globe and mounted it onto the red and white stripe paper so it is slightly off the page.  I've mounted some of the elements with foam tape and tucked and layered other pieces for more dimension

Close-ups of either side of the globe - I added some twine to the reindeer pulling the sleigh! The stars on the trees are from the floral bits pack. Santa himself is actually fussy cut from the reverse of the red and white striped background paper. 

Finally I have used the Floral bits to add some holly to the base of the snow globe and flowers to the top before finishing off with an older Thickers words in gold. 

Thanks for stopping by Till next week
