Floating Pockets - swaps

 Floating Pockets

These very simple designed swaps are for use with journals or other projects. 
They can be an additional element added to make an interactive part of a layout or Junk Journal. 

So with that in mind, I was trying to be quite deliberate with the accessories that I included in the pockets, as these too can be used as embellishments to add a cohesive feel for the person who may use it. 

These were all put together using an older Uniquely Creative collection.

Card made with scraps - swap

 During my recent push to reconnect with my creativity and with myself again, I signed up to some SWAPS with a local Aussie facebook card making group. 

This group CREATIVE CRAFTERS (Australia) have been trying invaluable with my process and have connected with them through online crop sessions as well. It has been such a delight and humbling to be accepted so quickly. Although I have been a part of this group for many years and did partake in swaps quite a while ago, I've just been lurking in the shadows for the past couple of years and I'm so grateful they allowed me to stay and be inspired all this time. 

I signed up to 6 swaps this month. 

The first one I'm sharing with you today I know has already arrived. 

I used scraps from a Uniquely Creative collection I had leftover.

Heart & Soul - sketch

(*publishing from draft April 2024)

 

I was honoured recently when Louise from Scrapbookers Journal magazine allowed me to be a part of the team to contribute to the Sketch inspiration. 

We all know how much I love a good sketch, so of course when Louise put the call out for interest, I jumped on and crossed my fingers. 

My Heart & Soul

As soon as I saw this sketch, I knew I wanted to do a few different versions. 

This is the second layout featuring the Uniquely Creative - Boho Soul collection from the 2023 Christmas Advent calendar kit. 

First of all, I put all of the town layers together on one bit square, then cut it into the four grid style. 

Instead of flowers as per the sketch, I added plenty of collectable pieces for the clusters. 

A brand new Pinecone ink pad ties it all together nicely, although it is a bit dark and messy.

Double Easel card - Mind Over Matter UC

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

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..

Box cards

 With inspiration for an upcoming BOX CARD swap, I threw together a card (at the bottom) using the measurement specs in the criteria, but I really didn't like it much, so I made it smaller and adding extra boxes.. I'm definitely more happy with this one. 

Using Kaiser - A Christmas Tale collection to create a card that I will be sending off to personally to beloved family members.. 

It folds flat to 5X7" for easy postage.. 

They are so easy to make, it is literally folding open ended boxes, then gluing them on top of each other..

First box card made for an upcoming swap..

GDT Uniquely Creative - Hello layout

 

During August I was lucky enough to be asked and featured as a GUEST DT member using their incredible Creative Kit - Among The Gum Trees

HELLO

As I bring this second week to a close with the final project to share with you of the projects from this kit, I thought it would be fun to have something a little different.. 

A white based layout with some coloured stencilling.. 

The photo mat sits on top of a leftover scrap pieces and plenty of fake layers.. I can tell you this mat is THICK! lol.. 

Some hessian for texture, fussy cuts and metal cuts for the clusters and colour cut word for the title.

Let me know what you think!
