Runaway Princess Interactive and Easel layout

 

I'm in the middle of catching up on projects that have been shared on my facebook page but not here, so here we go --- 
This layout was made in May 2024 as part of a cyber crop challenge from  Scrapbook Fantasies .


Interactive Shaker layout


This is from the gorgeous collection - Runaway Princess.


I'm so thankful that Alicia, Quentin and the Redshaw saw the spark in me back in 2024 to get back into crafting. Unfortunately it fell flat pretty quickly afterwards, but I'm not back at it. April 2026.. I am trying to catch up on posting / uploading projects and working on plenty of new one's as well. 




This interactive layout includes the fun easel stand as you can see above. 
I completed this in two stages. I made the bones of the project in one sitting, them came back to finish off with clusters and additions.

Magical Memories - Added Easel

* SCRAPLIFT   INVITE *

A few weeks ago I was so honoured to be allowed to promote this Magical Memories collection from Scrapbook Fantasies as part of their audition process for their Creative Team. 
For me it has been the boost that I've needed to get out of the horrible hole I've been in and unable to go near my craft desk for the past year +.. 

Alicia, Quentin and the Redshaw have been friends for a long time and to feel the support from them at this tough time has been inspirational and heart warming. I hope that the support and promotion that I'm able to give now with their products is at the least a small part of paying them back for their kindness. 

So now I would like to invite the incredible members of the Scrapbook Fantasies Creative Families group to Scraplift this layout design and share with us in the facebook group. 
It's an easy and simple layout that anyone of any ability can put together using any of the exclusive collections by Alicia and Naomi-Jon.



This layout is one of many that I would love to share that has a special design technique element. 
I love putting new ideas onto layouts and showing others that it can be done with some imagination. 
I don't always get it right and quite often have to put quite a bit of thoughts into the logistics and measurements before I even begin.. Then I tend to get it wrong and have to wing it as I go along.. lol

Camel buddy

These photos capture my beautiful boys meeting and playing with a Camel calf a few years ago during our trip to the Gemfields. We were staying at a small caravan park called "Gemini", which happens to be right next to the Camel farm. 


I started off with a kraft cardstock piece as the base. You can use anything for this, as it won't be seen underneath!
Using Magical Memories # 5 - cut it in half 6"x12" with the solid tan piece, then cut in half again 3"x12". These will be adhered to the top and bottom of the base layout piece. 
Fussy cut the other side of Magical Memories # 5 for the embellishment cluster pieces. 

Grab a couple of White Cardstock pieces for highlighting and photo mating pieces. 
12"x6.5" - stick it down in the middle, making sure to go over the top of the solid tan strips. 
Cut two 5"x6" photo mats 
and one 5"x8" piece to be used for the easel. Score at 1" and 4.5"

Magical Memories 3 4 - Cut to layer on top of the middle white cardstock. 11.5"x6"

I had leftover scrap piece of solid tan from another layout that I used for the first photo mat on the left side, sandwiched with an off centre white mat and then photo on top. 

The easel 1" piece will go under the white middle layer piece. 
It will be lay over the top of the middle pattern paper layers. Fold creases. 
Add the white photo mat to the bottom section of the easel and then the photo on top too. 

Add the white journal piece and fussy cut clusters. 
To finish it off, blend on some spots using the Blotchy Spots stencil. 



Another very simple and basic layout that can be added to to create your own design. 
This is one that I've already got plans to scraplift myself again. 
If you would like to try out the idea, then please feel free to scraplift this yourself as well and share it in the Scrapbook Fantasies Creative Families facebook group.

Hanging Interactive layout

 Have you ever seen a Hanging Interactive layout before? Noooo….?!

Well I haven’t either, until I just designed one..
Please allow me to introduce to you - A HANGING LAYOUT..





This was inspired for a crop challenge hosted by Scrapbook Fantasies. Using the Fallen Leaves collection by Kaisercraft. 
I have 100% designed this, as it just kept evolving as I was going along.. 



I have learnt plenty of tricks to make it even better for next time! Definitely need to devote an entire collection for this project instead of the limited papers I had to use to keep within the challenge guidelines.
It has 13 ready to photo opportunities wnd journalling can be added anywhere basically.
It has hidden pockets, pull out mats, flip elements and an easel too.













* work in progress photos below - you can see how the easel sits up on the bottom page. 




Let me know what you think!

Double Easel card - Mind Over Matter UC

 Another fabulous Double Easel card.. Of course made for a swap.. 

Using the Uniquely Creative - Mind Over Matter collection.. 

I had an idea for an easel card for this swap, but didn't love it and then I had this picture pop up in my imagination featuring this collection and the gorgeous mushrooms..
