*** Mystical Scrapbook DT *** August Cybercrop reveal 9 x 12 sketch challenge

 Hi Crafters

Today's share is for the Cybercrop challenge at Mystical Scrapbooks.

This month we are inspiring you with sketch challenges.

"Picture Perfect"


I really enjoy creating in 9x12 so I'm challenging you to give it a go.

You could also adapt this sketch to 12 x 12 in the same way.


I didn't want my background to be too overwhelming so I've used a combination of white cardstock and glitter cardstock.

The squares of patterned paper are all from the Uniquely Creative "Choose your own adventure" collection

This time I've kept the chipboard simple and covered it with embossing powder. 

I love to do interesting things with chipboard.

To finish I've just added some fussy cutting, cotton and journalling. 

Can't wait to see your creations

Happy Scrapping.

*** Mystical Scrapbook DT *** August Inspiration 12x12 Layout "Friends" with process video

Hi Crafters

Today I'm sharing a new page for  Mystical Scrapbooks.

"Friends"


For this layout I've been playing with 

Uniquely Creative "Choose your own adventure" collection

These papers already have a mixed media feel so not much extra was needed - but to create some texture I've added some distressing and paper scrunching. 

To embellish I've used some CVS Flair buttons

I love to do interesting things with chipboard.

So for this "Friends" chipboard, I've firstly coated it with acrylic paint.

Then I've covered the upper part with washi tape so I can add the glitter to the bottoms part.

I cover the lower section with tacky glue then sprinkle with glitter.

Once the glitter is dry, I spray with a sealant. 

To finish, I've added a little bit of fussy cutting and some die cut pieces.

Here is the process video:



Happy creating!

*** Mystical Scrapbook DT *** August Challenge reveal 12 x 12 Sketch challenge

Hi Crafters

How is it the start of month already?

Today I'm sharing a new challenge for Mystical Scrapbooks 

This month we are focusing on sketches with a side of chipboard.

"Love this Moment"



I've designed this layout and then given you this sketch to use as you are inspired.


For this layout I've been playing with 

Uniquely Creative "Choose your own adventure" collection

I also needed some colour in the background ... so I pulled out watercolours

To embellish I've used lots of Cocoa Vanilla Studio "Legendary"

and topped it off with some CVS Flair buttons

For the title I've used the Love this Moment chipboard and treated it with acrylic paint and embossing powder.

I'm looking forward to seeing your sketch inspired layouts.

Have fun creating!
