WHITE WITH ONE - CHALLENGE BLOG

Dude

Dude, check this out! How cool is this plain and simple colour combo.. It's as old as time.. I love working with Black and White! 
Realistically, I could have made 10 layouts for this months challenge theme.. 

I had so many ideas, but this was the one that stuck out and I seemed to really be set on. 

Although I was a bit messy and heavy handed in some black blending spots, I think it falls in line with the elements of a boy page anyway.. There are no rules and if it's a big grungy or messy, then that's totally ok! :) 

There are so many layers and frames to this I couldn't even count.. Black on white, on white, on black, on pattern, on white, on black on white.. hahahaha.. 

I used a star stencil and black ink to create the patterns.. 

The photo is of my son Hunter a couple years ago preforming a hip-hop dance at his end of year performance event.. 

What do you think?

Forest

This was definitely one of the most fun flat mixed media bases I've done in a long time.. 

Using a simple ink pad and stencil I added the leaf pattern with a blending brush.. 
Then some splat stamping, mixed line stamps and some flicking of paint. 

Still another quick layout, that features the focus on the photo so perfectly that even I have surprised myself at how much I truly love it!!

I title words I wanted to be the second feature but still blend in to a degree. 

Using some tall but thin Thickers letters made this work so well..

Lasting Memories - 543

 

Welcome back.. We are at April already.. Can you believe it? I am blown away how fast the year is flying by to be honest.. 

This week at Lasting Memories we would like to see you use a photo the size of a 4"x4"... You can have one or more..  As you can see by my layout, I chose to add 4 photos.. :) 

LASTING MEMORIES LAYOUT CHALLENGES 

These are the best days 

I loved putting this one together.. The photos were taken recently just a few weeks ago for representative football trials.. They feature the beautiful young Ela, Indie and my son Hunter.. 

All three had a blast!! 

The base of the layout starts off with a piece of white cardstock laying on top of a black frame boarder.. 

Then I cut up a piece of pattern paper, inked each strip and stuck them back down in a different order to create that striped pattern.. 
I placed the photos together on the square black mat and raised it from the layout with some foam tape.  
Finishing it off with a sentiment box and some journaling. 
There really isn't much to this layout, but it is very eye catching and effective.. A beginner can easily do it and a more experience scrapper can add use it as a base to add extra texture or embellishment..

LASTING MEMORIES LAYOUT CHALLENGES 

WILD

I dug deep for these super cute photos of Hunter when he was little at a local park enjoying the slide.. 

I used the Daydream collection from Cocoa Vanilla and an adorable Wolf pup and flag garland diecut from Scrapbook Fantasies.. It's a simple page but the focus highlights are balanced nicely without too much extras being added.. :)

I have some very exciting news to share.. 
Thanks to the amazing Alicia Redshaw at Scrapbook Fantasies, my imagination for this project came to life with this special custom made BOW CRAZY pack.. You can follow the link to check them out and grab yourself a pack too!! There are 11 pre cut bows from a 12x12 sheet.. The price is very budget friendly too!! - GET BOW CRAZY HERE - 

During a recent instore 3 day retreat young Amelia and I decided we were TEAM NAP and to lay on the floor for a little break.. Although no eyes were shut during our break, there were plenty of giggles and definitely felt recharge afterwards.. 

Using an Ultramarine ink pad I started off by sploshing the background so that it would feature the bow.. 

Then with more white paper I drew the lines and dots on some scrap and then stuck to the top of the bow.. I love that the design elements on this page I handmade especially for it. 

Adding some simple embellishments from a Uniquely Creative pack finished the page off well.. 

Bow Crazy - available from Scrapbook Fantasies in store and online.

LASTING MEMORIES LAYOUT CHALLENGES 

Be a rainbow

 

I gotta admit crafty friends.. After a couple months of not getting any craftiness done (I'm very good at working ahead and being organised so I still have something to share when I am in this situation) I have been loving getting my mojo back and using these new photos of us during our holiday in Januray..  

The two photos here were captured at a really cool MAZE.. 

The paper collection I have used is called "Daydream" from Cocoa Vanilla..
