Scrap the Boys - December challenge "Naughty" Scrapbook layout for boys

Hi Crafters

Today I'm sharing my take on the challenge at

Scrap the Boys

My layout "Naughty"

Apparently I did not read the blog well enough as this month is supposed to be a Christmas challenge.

I thought it was a "naughty or nice" challenge and hence my photo and title.

Even if I'm not eligible for voting I still wanted to share.

I've used Nuvo Embellishment mousse in the background and Cocoa Vanilla Studio papers.

Thanks for visiting.

--- Off the Rails Scrapbooking DT --- November Boho challenge Scrapbook Layout + video tutorial

Hi Scrap Friends

Today I'm sharing a layout for the November challenge over at
Off the Rails Scrapbooking.

My layout "Loving Life"

This month we'd like to inspire you with this "Boho" themed moodboard.

Straight up ... this was really hard for me!
I'm definitely not a fan of the boho and I'm more a brights/bold kind of person.

So I did a little googling of "boho" and discovered arrows, florals and feathers.
Next I looked for a photo and decided this would be a good opportunity to scrap a picture of myself.

Finally I've gotten into my stash and put together this page.
You can see it here in this video ...

Thanks for watching and can't wait to see your creations.

Happy Scrapping.

--- White... with 1 CT --- November challenge reveal "Sweet" Scrapbook layout

Hi Scrap Friends

Sorry for being so absent on my blog lately.
Lots going on behind the scenes.

Today though, I'd like to share my layout for the November challenge at
White ... with 1

"Sweet"

I Scraplifted this layout after discovering it on Pinterest.

It's created by the fabulous Flore

I think this is her blog, but if I'm incorrect, please let me know.

http://scrapfloring.over-blog.com/

We want you to create a layout inspired by the moodboard and featuring "Orange Blaze"

Looking through my photo stash, I found this photo of Master Z on an orange slide.

Then it was just a matter of collecting anything orange from my stash.

For my background I've used Vicki Boutin watercolour tubes and spread them with the tube.

I added a couple of black elements and stamping to help lift the layout.

I'm so pleased with how this one turned out.

Thank you Flore for the scrap lift inspiration.

Happy Crafting.

--- Kitaholic Kits DT --- "Zed" Scrapbook layout + process video

Hi Scrap Friends

Welcome along to my blog today.

I'm so pleased to be sharing inspiration for 

Here is my layout
"Zed"



The inspiration for this page was the Mixed Media Kit featuring the fabulous Colour Blast Artists Inks in "Citrus", "Marine" and "Sunburnt".

I decided that I wanted to make a water colour background, but I didn't want it to be solid colour.
So I took some old washi tape and taped off sections of white cardstock.

I then added the artists inks firstly in Citrus and Sunburnt, sprayed with water and dried with heat gun.
I left it overnight to make sure it was completely dry then repeated the process with Marine and Citrus.

After it dried, I removed the washi tape and got this awesome stripey background.

I decided to trim it and mount it on  black cardstock.

The rest of the page is just layering embellishments with some stitching and a couple of black ink splatters to finish it off.

Thanks for visiting.

Happy Scrapping.

--- Kitaholic Kits DT --- "Cake" Scrapbook layout + process video

Hi Scrap Friends

Welcome along to my blog today.

I'm so pleased to be sharing inspiration for 

Here is my inspiration for you
"Cake"

The inspiration for this page came from the cute baking embellishments on the sticker sheet.
I chose these super cute photos of Master C "licking the beaters". I love his face and the little smudge of cake batter on his nose.

/

Master C's favourite colour is green, so I focused on that as my main colour with some small pops of pink to help draw the mix master sticker into the layout.

 

I think the title and the chipboard sticker are just spot on.
"Today I am happy because ... Cake!"

In the background I've used some glitter paste through the stencil in the Mixed Media kit.

Also on this page you'll actually find some of the packaging that the embellishments came in - don't forget to keep some of the pretty "rubbish" to use on your pages.

Heres the process video if you'd like to see this creation come together.



Thanks for visiting.

Happy Scrapping.

--- A2Z Scraplets DT --- "Heaven on Earth" Scrapbook Layout 9x12

Hi Scrap Friends

Today I'm sharing a layout for A2Z Scraplets

My layout "Heaven on Earth"

Sometimes when my mojo goes AWOL I like to create a 9x12 page which can sometimes kickstart my creativity.

This page uses scraps of paper with a sunburst stencil.

It was pretty busy with patterns so I left the 

Heaven on Earth chipboard

fairly basic.

I gave it a coat of sparkly embossing powder.

I also added the cutfile in the photo background and embellished with stickers and cotton.

Thanks for visiting.

Happy Scrapping. 

--- Off the Rails Scrapbooking DT --- October Challenge reveal "Show Bags"

Hi Scrap Friends

Today I'm sharing a layout for the October challenge at
Off the Rails Scrapbooking.

My Layout "Show Bags"

This month we are encouraging you to use something recycled on your page.

My page features a photo of my boys at our local show after they picked out their first show bags.

Master C had kept his since May and I decided it would be perfect to recycle for this page.

The bag has an ombre feel starting with orange to red and then black at the bottom.

I used this as my inspiration for the background.

I started with white card stock and used Vicki Boutin water colours with a spatula 

Other elements include acrylic through a stencil and stamping before adding title and a little bit of sparkle.

Can't wait to see your recycled projects.

Happy Scrapping.

--- White ... with 1 CT --- October challenge reveal "Trouble x 2" Scrapbook layout

Hi Scrap Friends

Welcome to the October challenge at White ... with 1

Here is my inspiration layout "Trouble x 2"

This month we have a fun easy to use sketch.

Each month when I prepare the WW1 challenge, I start by raiding my stash for anything that matches the colour. 

Then it becomes a challenge to find a suitable photo.

Thankfully I found this one from when my boys where less than twelve months and knew that it would work so well with this months colour.

It's always going to be trouble when it's quiet and this was what I found ...
My two boys pulling all the tissues out of the box!!!

I had fun with paste and washi tape for the background and embellished with my photo cluster.

Thanks for visiting.
Happy Scrapping.
