You’ve Got This – Felicity Jane

January 30, 2019

Hello!  Thank you for joining me today.  I am working with the Jill Collection on this layout, and I was inspired by two things for this layout, the vellum pack and the gorgeous vellum pockets that we had received in the Holly Collection and the floral stamp in the Jill stamp set!

I started with a white 8.5×11 piece of cardstock.  I decided to cut out the super cute Felicity Jane houses.  I made sure they were centered on the paper in my Silhouette software so that I could use the leftover paper as part fo the design.  I backed the open houses with the gray floral paper to create a pretty shadow for the houses and windows.  I used foam dots to adhere the houses back into their cut spots.  I love the dimension this creates for the page!

Next up, I made my pocket from the buffalo plaid 6×8 vellum sheet.  It was all I could do to cut into it!!  Who knew such bravery was needed in paper crafting?  I notched the top of the pocket with a circle punch and folded each of the three sides with a 1/4″ fold and applied scor tape to the fold.  I made a white tag to fit inside the pocket and added my journaling to the tag.  Originally I thought I would adhere the vellum pocket right to the layout, but I decided to add it to a white backing so that I could raise the pocket with foam.  The area beneath the houses became my focal point. I tucked the photo beside the vellum pocket and added two stamped, and fussy cut florals along with the gorgeous yellow rose die cut.

For finishing touches, I created a hello beautiful banner with the stamp set and paired it with the You’ve Got This die cut.  It tied all the pocket and floral cluster together and still left plenty of the pretty vellum showing!  At this point, my layout was looking very white, and the houses were not popping enough for my liking.  I added very light washes of grey paint around the edges of the houses and the edges of the floral and pocket.  This small addition brought everything to life!  I finished up with some sketchy pencil lines and some paper butterflies!

Thank you so much for having a look at my page!  I am loving the beautiful contrast of my layouts using the Jill kit!!

Awesome – Felicity Jane

January 28, 2019

Everytime I get the Jill Collection from Felicity Jane out, it gets better and better!  Today I wanted to play with the floral stamp!  Felicity Jane’s stamp sets are very high quality and you always turn out with a beautiful image!  I started out with an 8.5×11 white background.

For my title I used the Felicity Jane cut file – eat, sleep, be awesome, reapeat.  I just snipped the awesome word out from the rest after I cut it from black paper.  I added the Jill alphabet to a white heart that I had done some stitching on to complete the title.  I layered a Jill journal card and a scrap of paper behind my photo.  The stamped trail of florals really does most of the work for decorating on this page, so I kept things pretty simple!

The paper below is the first stamped paper I did.  I had a hard time picking between the bordered paper and the trail paper.  It is super fun to make your own unique backgrounds and really easy as well!

To finish off my layout I added some stamped hearts in the floral trail and stitched on the scalloped border to the bottom edge of the layout!

You are Enough – Felicity Jane

January 16, 2019

I was thrilled to open my black and white striped box this month and find the gorgeous Jill Collection! If you are anything like me, you spend quite a bit of time just looking at everything! I adore the pattern papers and the stamp set is always a favorite of mine and the Jill stamp set is gorgeous! Right away I knew I wanted to use one of the sentiments.

I started out with a piece 8.5×11 white card stock. I decided to play on the enough word in the stamp and cut both titles on my silhouette. I hadn’t made my mind up at this point on which title to use, but as you can see I ended up using both! I outlined the white letters with a sketchy pen line so that they would pop off the page!

Next, I worked on my photo and used a journal card and a white tag for some layers. I added some foam for dimension and also tucked a white floral cut from white card stock in behind the photo.

Once I had my photo and title arranged I added the enough sentiment to a white piece of card stock and then cut it into a banner shape. I stitched one edge of the banner for a bit of a messy look. This made the perfect spot for the rose die cut floral. It was just the perfect touch for the layout! The last thing I added to the layout were the paper strips at the top. The soft pink tiny floral paper is absolutely gorgeous, the black and white gingham strip is one of the branding strips. For me, the black and white keeps the layout from being too soft and adds a bit of punch and ties in the black hearts and the black title!

Thanks so much for joining me today. I hope you love using your Jill kit!

Time for Tea – Paige Evans + Silhouette

November 15, 2018

Hello!  Hope you are having a good day!  Paige has the most adorable Tea Cup (Design ID# 279012) cut file in her Silhouette store.  My daughter has been enjoying a cup of tea most afternoons while she does homework or studies, so I snapped up this design!

I cut the teacup as it is from white cardstock, I then removed the tiny flowers from inside the teacup and cut it again the same size. Lastly, I added a border to the outline of the teacup and cut it from white cardstock.  I ended up with three versions of the cut file.  I added pattern paper from the 6×6 Whimsical paper pad (Paper 5) behind the tiny flowers.  The mini hexagons did a nice job of spacing out the color to make the different flowers stand out! I backed the handle and saucer with Paper 8.

I backed the 2nd teacup I cut with purple ombre paper just in the top of the cup (where the liquid would be)  this will allow me to slip my photo and tea packet into the cup!   I glued all the cup cut files together except for the top portion and the inside of the teacup.  Once I decided on placement for my layout, I attached the teacup to the background with some foam.

I slipped my photo and tea packet into the cup and added a few pop dots and some adhesive to secure them.  I fiddled around for quite a while on where to add the string tag for the tea, as you can see I settled on attaching it to the top of the layout and let the string trail down to the cup.  I printed out some journaling, added a few of the sticker washi tapes to that area and stapled it to the layout!  I decided to cut some white butterflies from Paige’s Butterfly Border cut file to use as accents.  I adhered the butterflies with pop dots and layered a few of them on top of each other for more dimension!

To finish off the layout I cut one of the sweet cards from Paper 13 and tucked it by the photo. I also cut a sentiment from Paper 8 to create a cluster spot at the bottom of the layout to balance the top cluster.  A couple more strips of washi from the Whimsical sticker book and I was done!  Be sure to check out the lovely Tea Cup cut file!

Coffee Time – Elle’s Studio

October 25, 2018

Hello!  Hope you are having a great week! I am back with my last layout for my guest spot with Elle’s Studio!  I have thoroughly enjoyed myself, I loved using the October kit and want to thank Elle, Meghann and you all for having me!

For my 8.5×11 layout, I wanted to use the super cute Coffee items!  I got out my mixed media (Vicki Boutin) and mixed and made all sorts of painty puddles and splatters.  I used the bottom of a jar dipped in paint to make coffee circle stains!

I chose a photo I took late this summer while we were out for lunch.  I added a bit of text in photoshop before I printed it.  It occurred to me that I only take coffee photos when I am out and about, so I decided to make my page about that!  I typed my journaling in photoshop as well and printed that out and cut it into strips.

To embellish I added the typed word strips (so many great sayings on this sheet!) puffy stars and dots in grey and black and the wood veneer coffee cups, which I LOVE!!

I backed my photo with two of the journal tags and tucked in the perfect cup label at the top of my photo, along with the cream + sugar sticker!  I love how my page turned out, I quite possibly wouldn’t have made a page about this photo, but Elle’s unique designs inspired a story to be told!!

5 Reasons I Love Autumn – Elle’s Studio

October 18, 2018

Hello!  I am back with a layout using the October Kit from Elle’s Studio!  These kits are jam-packed with inspiring goodies!  The number block journal tag caught my eye, and I decided to trim the blocks and use them with five photos!

I started out by painting the background with black gesso.  I knew the layout would be colorful and I wanted a spot to ground everything!  Below the painted area I added my title with the Jane alphabet stickers, these stickers are awesome, and you get tons of letters on one sheet!  I selected a few stamps from the Thankful stamp set and added them around my title!

All 5 of the photos I chose are things I love around home in autumn.  The adorable wood veneer Home Sweet Home piece brings it all together for me!

Once I had my photos printed and paired up with the five numbers, I decided to color block the photo spots.  I chose labels and puffy stars for each photo. I think the puffy stars are my favorite item!!  The sweet little “the best” circle from the die cut sheets was the finishing touch I needed!

Present & Wonder – Pinkfresh Studio

August 20, 2018

So happy to share two new layouts using Simple & Sweet by Pinkfresh Studio with you today! It is amazing to me how beautifully this collection goes with so many types of photos!  I of course love to make pages about my girl and I chose photos from when she was little, simple and sweet!

My first layout is 8.5×11, I started with a white background and added puddles of paint and splatters.  To ground my photo I added a strip of paper from the Happy Life paper.

 

I wanted a whimsical feel for this page, I fussy cut a big circle from the Splendid paper to tuck under my photo.  It then gave me the perfect spot to continue scattering embellishments up the page!  I used chipboard, puffy stickers, epoxy stickers and a gorgeous gold foiled heart!

 

The bottom of the layout is super simple, I added one of the divine chipboard butterflies (LOVE them) an epoxy circle and another gold foil heart.

My 2nd layout features one of my favorite papers from Simple & Sweet – the Fresh Air paper.  There are so many wonderful sentiments included in these strips!

 

 

I cut up the entire paper and decided on a color block for my layout.  I mixed my Pinkresh Studio Liquid Watercolors with white paint and using a palette knife I created strips of color across the background.  Once the paint was dry I added a few gold splatters!

 

After I attached the paper strips I got busy embellishing!  I kept colored embellishments with the coordinating colored paper strips.  To me this creates a full look without being too chaotic!  I finished off the layout with a gold foil XO and stitched through it.

Beautiful Self

March 12, 2018

I started out by cutting Simple Flower Background (Design ID #228026) from 8.5×11 white card stock.  Once I peeled off the background I realized I would have all these gorgeous little flowers left over!  Out came the pop dots!!  I chose to back the card stock with Paper 18 from the 12×12 Paper Pad. The gold foil glimmers on the pretty blue were too hard to resist!  I stitched (crookedly) in a diamond pattern in between the flowers and then popped up the white flowers over the open space.  To add a bit more color I cut down the white sheet and added it onto Paper 21, I love how the colorful and gold bits stick out around the edge of the layout.

To embellish my photo I used the gold journal card from the Journaling Spots Pak, a floral die cut, sweet little flower puffy stickers and a word sticker.  The Be Your Beautiful Self Chipboard Tag from the Chipboard sheet became my title, I added a little Hello Puffy banner for a finishing touch!  I kept the photo cluster pretty simple to reflect the simple pretty background!

The dimension created by using 4,675 pop dots (kidding) is so pretty.  The watermelon background peeks out just enough to add sparkle and color!

Capture Life

February 18, 2018

I sat down with my gelli plate and made a big fun mess! I used my new Vicki Boutin Color Pop paints and a few other mixed media items like gesso, stencils, Heidi Swapp Gold Modeling Paste and Gold Colorshine.  I used green & blue Color Pop for one set of pages and purple, pink and mint for another set.

I had no intention for the pages but I knew a greenish one would make nice leaves and I can always use leaves!  Here are the papers I ended up making.

I had a large purple flower from the Vicki Boutin All The Good Things die cut pak that I had  been wanting to use, so I decided to make flowers and leaves from the papers using some Sizzix dies.  I pieced papers onto the sides of 8.5×11 cardstock to carry the mixed media fell onto the background! Here you can see the big purple flower clustered under the photo!

 

I love the black and white circles from the die cut pak and I used small flowers from the sticker book as centers for the flowers!

Goals

January 9, 2018

Hello Friends!!  Today I have a layout about my December album!  It was my first year making a DD album and I loved the experience and wanted to scrap about it!  For a fun change I made an 8.5×11 layout!  As soon as I saw the December journal card I chose everything else to coordinate with it!  The super cute On the Edge embellishment by Vicki Boutin from the December 2017 Project Life Hip Kit was the perfect spot to add the daily word using the sweet Pinkfresh Studio The Mix 2 Puffy Aqua Alpha also found in the PL kit!  A few Pinkfresh tags and the awesome puffy sticker “goals” from Crate Paper in the December 2017 Main Hip Kit finish off the page!

You, Me and Happy

October 10, 2015

I have always loved this photo of my Dad and my daughter, even though it is very dark and not the best quality.  For me scrapbooking is definitely about the memory or the feeling the photos represent!  I layered elements and added paint and gesso for a fun artsy feel!

This layout is a remake of the original that appeared in Canadian Scrapbooker.  I changed the size from 12×12 down to 8.5×11 to fit in my new album.  I find the 8.5×11 so much easier to scrap with and the album is not so huge!

Good Morning Sunshine

September 7, 2015

Recently I have been more focused on the storytelling part of my scrap booking/memory keeping.   In digital it is so easy to journal and the options seem endless for style and of course fonts.  One of the big drawbacks I have found with paper scrapping is that you really do need to have a good idea of how the page will flow and look before you print out the words.  In order to get a bit of a rhythm going I have done some scrap lifting of layouts I see on Pinterest so that I can get the printed type part down, without making an epic mess  and changing my mind after I print!

gm-sunshine

For this layout I was inspired by a layout on Pinterest and for the life of me I cannot track it down again for proper credit.  When I find it I will be sure to edit the information here.  Anyway I thought the design and simplicity of the layout was super cute so I took my jumping off point from it.  The two shipping tags I made in Photoshop that closely resemble the ones on the scrap lift layout.  I printed out the tags and cut them as well as printing my type on the scrapbook paper and on the little blue label.  I also decided to add the stamped star and good morning sunshine to my photo in Photoshop before printing it out. Once the printing and cutting were done the fun part started with layers and paper bits and paint!

I love how it turned out and it was well worth all the fussing around to make the page!
