Floral slimline card

 Beautiful Floral themed Slimline card for a swap.

I have been playing around with folds & pockets lately and this was a fun one of experiment with.
I used Lilac Flowers collections from Stamperia and kraft cardstock.
The chipboard on the front is I believe from Celebr8 maybe??? And did you peep the acetate under the chipboard making it a pocket too.






Let me know what you think!

Heart - Tearing layout

 

 Scrapbook Fantasies   Creative Team. 

Heart 


This one blew my heart away.
It’s a simple design, look me less than 45min to put together, but the papers flowed and the idea was just perfect.
Scrapbook Fantasies has another Cyber crop over the weekend, this one was for the Biggest Morning Tea fundraiser.
Although entries do require a photo, journal & title for submission, I’m happy just to share inspiration and ideas.
I used Springtime Tea Party collection for the pattern papers, these all fit so perfectly!
White cardstock for the base, then layered with three torn strip layers.
Bottom: 3.5” wide
Middle: 2.5” wide
Top: 1.5” wide
And the middle strip actually had a forth layer with the 1” wide strip of the Hearts design.
The outside strips have a really cool White Border Chippie cut as well. This gives another eye catching texture & element to the layout.
Keeping it simple, I added a chippie title that was coloured with Gelatos sticks, a small bit of mesh underneath as a mat and the flowers to finish it all off.










Using Scrapbook Fantasies - Springtime Tea Party collection, I’ve done up a base for the Tearing challenge and thought it would be a great opportunity to display just how versatile some layouts can be without even realising.
Below are some 3x3 photo mats, 3x4 photo mats & one 5x7 photo mat.
Moved around the page, it can give different opportunities to capture memories using LOADS of photos, just a couple or maybe only one.
Design elements like a title, journaling and embellishments can be added to suit whichever option you choose as well.
This sort of design can lead to continuous paper designs throughout a whole album if required or would great as a double spread layout!

Believe layout

Believe


This is the one that got me back into scrapping.
I stuck with something I knew and have scraplifted from myself many times before.
I needed something easy, familiar and guaranteed to make me happy.
This layout is based off a stripped background layout I had designed many years ago and have the pleasure of scraplifting from myself on the occasion over the years.
This is a prime example of how using scraps from a collection can be used to extend your projects.
We all have random pieces of varying sizes leftover without a clue what to do with them.
I hope that the simplicity I have shared with these 5 layouts can inspire you to use up even more of your leftover scraps in an easy and coordinated manner.
This layout I started out with pattern paper #3 as the 12x12” background base, Before quickly placing #5 & #6 pieces on top to layer for a base. Approx 10.5”..
Using #4 to cut the strips from (or use your own leftover pieces), stick them randomly & tightly down to another white scrap piece to hold them all together. I have found this to easier to do keep control of the pattern and the straightness of the strips as I’m working..
Finish off with chipboard pieces, photo mats & flowers.






Although this is quite an easy layout, it’s effective and can be a little fiddly with the strips. But it’s worth it and still can be fully completed under 60min.
Best not to think too much with this one. Just stick it down and away you go.






Did you know that at Scrapbook Fantasies, you are able to return your empty packets for recycling.

Garden Inspired layout

 Garden themed inspiration layout created for a Scrapbook Fantasies cyber challenge.


I loved putting this together.
May not have enjoyed the fussy cutting quite so much, so I made sure I used all of those suckers! Although I think I cut off more scraps than I kept..
I used the Imagine with Alice collection from Scrapbook Fantasies.

Isn’t this rainbow cut out adorable!!
I added a green foil to back it.
Of course I layer most of the elements on this layout with foam dots.
I believe that even the simpler designs like this, can be taken to an extra level with something as basic as layering. Which obviously is one of my favourite additions, as you probably recognise by now anyway.

Pink Rectange - double window shaker layout

 Thanks so much to the White with One challenge group, I have always loved their unique challenge themes and got excited by the simplicity of the challenges from their Cyber crop from March.

Challenge 1 - white with one colour + 1 shape.
I chose to use PINK & RECTANGLES.

I wanted to share this layout with you as it’s an interactive design with 2 double sided shaker window fronts that open up to another layout with more photo opportunities too.
A few of the elements I added for the rectangle effect - I created my own stencil from scrap pieces to use for the blending. Drew on some more rectangles to trick the eye into a flat 3 dimensional idea too.
Very minimal products to create this layout - 2 white cardstock + 2 photo mats from scraps, 2 A4 Acetate pieces and shaker elements, 1 & half pattern paper (kaisercraft Sunkissed collection), 1 pink cardstock, half a glitter cardstock piece plus flowers and chipboard to cluster.
I haven’t seen anything like this specifically done before, but it was pretty easy to put together once I got my “it’s 12:30am and can’t sleep” ideas fitting together.















PRO TIP - do not push down on chipboard with hot glue on the back if there are gaps in the design.. It burns and hurts!
