3 mini swap pockets - simple stories vintage coastal

These super cute mini pockets were put together for a swap..

 I used the Simple Stories - Vintage Coastal collection. 

Although there were specs for the pockets, I added plenty of little cluster and elements to make these as much "my style" as I could.. 

I believe in creating something good enough that I would want to receive too. 
Quite often for simple swaps like this, I add extra goodies as gifts to surprise my swap partner.. Things like acetate sheets layovers / bling / lollies / colour cuts packets / washi tape / dies / stencils.. 

Let me know what you think!

Meet me in Paradise

 Meet me in Paradise

Today I'm sharing another layout created as a submission to an online challenge group. 

The criteria was to follow a sketch and use four 6x6 papers for the base design. 

The sketch had three photos (one centre and two on the corners) but I chose to only use the middle photo and use journal tags for the outside mats instead. 

This collection seems to be never ending.. I still have LOADS of leftovers for more projects in the future.. yay.. 

Let me know what you think! 
Thanks for your time, Happy Scrapping..

Writing Kit Holder

 

Writing Kit holder + cover

I love using this Simple Stories - Vintage Coastal collection. 

I've made so many different projects so far and still have loads of scraps left to put together so much more too!

This is a fun and actually quite a quick project using only 2 pieces of cardstock / pattern paper.. 

You can store pretty much anything in there for a PenPal, like letters, note paper / pad, envelopes etc..

Vintage Christmas - part 2

 November Retreat projects - PART 3

After not being happy with my first layout, then pulling out all the layering & flowers for the second, I began the third layout going back to the original design idea that I had when I first saw this collection.

Simple Stories - Vintage Christmas layouts

When it arrived in store, the sticker sheet was the first thing I pulled from the box. I had an idea straight away. It was that sticker sheet with the hanging banner style designs that got me interested very quickly.

So...... This first layout here is the one I had in my head from that moment. Since I had a struggle moment with the other layout, one I got this one to a place of being simple but cute - I left it alone & didn't add anything else... lol.

Once it was done, it was done..

The 4th layout from this collection was another 30min layout thrown together to use up the rest of the sticker sheet and some scraps..

Vintage Christmas layout - part 1

November Retreat projects - PART 2 

 Up next is something that happens to everyone. A layout I just couldn't like.

Simple Stories - Vintage Christmas (part 1)

No matter what I was thinking of adding or doing to it, I just couldn't feel it.

So I put it down and moved onto the next project.

Thankfully Candy had given me some great advice and I'll add that to the layout soon, but for now I thought it important to share the struggle too...

The second layout is the one I went to afterwards, it lead me back on the path of my original vision and definitely started to enjoy the collection that I have been waiting for months to have a play with.

Let me know what you think!

Rustic Christmas swap projects 2021

More Christmas 2021 catch up shares..

A few quick little projects made for multiple swaps following the criteria set for each…

They include - Pocket letter, Tags, ATC & ATCoins, bookmarks, box, memory dex, title size + smaller sized embellishment clusters and of course cards.

I used the Simple Stories - Rustic Christmas collection.

Even though I’ve made all of these, PLUS loads more that I packaged up before this video PLUS the layouts already shared - I still have loads of this collection still to play with.

Let me know what you think!

School Life

 A very simple BACK TO SCHOOL layout featuring the Simple Stories - School Life collection. 

TIP: When putting something on straight on top of crocked layers, it's always handy to use a T Ruler!

This layout definitely showcases in my 45min layout series folder.
 It honestly didn't take long at all with these simple layers and 4 sheets of pattern paper. 

With the leftovers, I then made some quick 10min card / project ideas to use up the scraps. Worked a treat. 

Let me know what you think!
