Kaisercraft June challenge Scrapbook Layout "Cherish"

Hi Scrap Friends

Today I'm sharing my take on the challenge on the
Kaisercraft Blog

"Cherish"

I decided to do the left vertical column - Black and white photos x 2, stitching and stencil.

I've used the Mini Designer stencil and traced through it.

Then I stitched around the stencil marks with a combination of navy and blue sparkly cotton.

I adore the navy florals in this collection and kept it nice and simple with a kraft background and white accents.

Thanks for visiting.

Happy Scrapping.

--- A2Z Scraplets DT --- "Brothers" Scrapbook Layout

Hi Scrap Friends

Today I'm sharing a layout for A2Z Scraplets

My layout "Brothers, Buddies, Best Friends"

When my mojo has taken a holiday ... I download a new cut file and have a little play.

This page is a backed cut file, which I've then embellished.

Firstly with Colour Blast spray in "Bling"

Then I've done some stash busting.
Collecting items with the turquoise and black colour theme in mind.

On this page, I've used the Brothers Word and treated it with Colour Blast "Envy" embossing powder.

Thanks for visiting.

Happy Scrapping. 

--- Scrapbook Boutique DT --- June Challenge Reveal "I am Lego Mad"

Hi Scrap Friends

It's challenge time over at Scrapbook Boutique.



We'd love to see your creations inspired by our  moodboard - .



Here is my layout "I am Lego Mad"

This moodboard is all about spots as inspiration.
With so many colours to choose from, I decided to go with one of my favs - yellow.
I did a little stash busting and found this paper from Simple Stories.
It doubles up on the dots with a few extra thrown in by using washi tape.

To complement the colours and the photo I've chosen I added elements from the Simple Stories "I Am" collection.

Here is the process video to see how I created this page ...

--- A2Z Scraplets DT --- "Adorable" Scrapbook Layout

Hi Scrap Friends

Today I'm sharing a layout for A2Z Scraplets

My layout "Adorable"

This month over in the A2Z Scraplets papercraft challenge facebook group you'll find a fun moodboard to play along with.

The explosion of colour was my inspiration. So I took a a neutral paper collection (Kaisercraft Pen & Ink) and added some colour.

We'd also like you to scrap a celebration.

You can find this "Adorable" word in the A2Z Scraplets shop.

I've firstly coated it with white gesso, then coloured with Distress Ink.

Finally I've given it a coat of Colour Blast embossing powder "Snow White"

In the background layers, you'll also find the Jenny Frame, which I've covered with black gesso.

The mixed media background features texture paste, Colour Blast Shimmer dust and black gesso.

Thanks for visiting.

Happy Scrapping. 

--- Colour Blast DT --- "Friends' Scrapbook Layout + process video

Hi Scrap Friends

Today I'm sharing a new project for Colour Blast

"Friends"

This page (for me at least) is VERY mixed media!!!

I've used the following

Colour Artists Ink Soot

Colour Spray Rainforest

Colour Shimmer Dust Lust

Colour Spray Sunset

Colour Paste Tangareen Dream

***

I firstly chose a photo - the little pop of orange in the picture was my inspiration for the pop of orange on this layout.

The Colour Artists Ink come with a dropper - so I wanted to use this to make my background.

I've lightly sprayed the edge of the page with water and then used the dropper to add colour and let it run.

As each layer dries, rotate the page and repeat.

I let the ink dry naturally overnight and then added some Colour Paste Tangareen Dream through a stencil in some of the square areas of the ink drips.

To help with the flow of my orange theme, I've trimmed the outside of the inked cardstock and mounted it on orange.

I also added some background splatters with Colour Spray Sunset

While playing around with the layout, I decided I needed to frame the photo.

I pulled out a chipboard circle and added some White Heavy Gesso

I thought about embossing, but decided to pull a little of the green from the elements of the paper collection I've used and firstly painted the chipboard with Colour Spray Rainforest.

It just wasn't green enough so I then coloured it with the Colour Shimmer Dust Lust  - much better!

Finally, I've added some diamontes, wood veneer, flair and cheeseclothe.

This is so different to my normal creations but I love how it turned out.

--- Off the Rails Scrapbooking DT --- June challenge reveal "Keeper" Scrapbook Layout

Hi Scrap Friends

Today I'm sharing my page for the June moodboard challenge at
Off the Rails Scrapbooking

"Keeper"



This months inspiration board has so much to choose from.

I was immediately drawn to the sunglasses, so took that as my theme.
Digging through my photo stash, I discovered this photo of DH at the beach with his sunnies on - perfect.

My 2018 challenge is to bust my stash - so I picked an older collection that focused on the turquoise/blue theme.

I kept it fairly simple with lots of colour and just a little bit of distress ink in the background.

Thanks for visiting.
Happy Scrapping.

--- White with 1 CT --- June challenge reveal "Happy Days" Scrapbook Layout

Hi Scrap Friends

Today I'm sharing my inspiration layout for the June challenge over at
White ... with 1

"Happy Days"

This month our challenge colour is pretty open to interpretation.


I adore this months sketch but decided to swap it a little.
Instead of three photos I chose one and used patterned papers for the photo area.

Lots of stash busting for this layout.
I find at the moment, I'm very drawn to less mixed media and more paper based layouts.
This page features a little bit of black ink splatter but is otherwise just layers and embellishments.

Thanks for visiting.

Happy Scrapping.
