Outback Eve - striped based layout

 Last month within an online craft group, we started to share sketch layouts for us to complete "just for fun"... I love this concept as it's much more enjoyable.. I tend to "enter" something if there is no winner or prize.. I'm so non-competitive, I'd just rather not take part.. So this JUST FOR FUN idea is perfect.. :) 


Anyway, the sketch is below.. It features loads of long thin strips for the base. Instead of cutting into a new paper collection, I decided to dig back into this OUTBACK EVE collection - Kaisercraft as I had plenty of 12" scraps leftover. I cut a bunch of them into half inch strips and left them at 12" long until I torn each one at the top & bottom as I was planning them for placement. 

I did a quick dab of smooshing with the pink ink and then a dabble of soft stenciling with green ink, to coordinate with the colours of the collection.. 


As you can see, I did change the photo mat sizing up a little bit, just cause I know I won't use that many photo on a layout.. I'm very much in awe of people that are able to get so many on a layout, it looks amazing, but my brain just can't seem to put them together.. ehh.. 







Let me know what you think!

Double Easel cards - White Christmas

 Christmas cards for teachers sorta just don't happen once the kids are in High School.. Which I find super sad and disappointing.. 
I always offer my boys to make some cards for any of the teachers that they want to gift something to.. Lane gave a couple and the teachers were always so appreciative.. 

This year, I was so glad that Hunter choose two of his teachers to gift a card and some scratchies to. 



I used the Kaiser - White Christmas collection that was released only a couple months ago.. 

I decided on a double easel design with plenty of mats for layering and cluster embellishment on the larger panel for the topper feature.. 
Also put on a small Tim Holtz shaker dome for that extra cute element on the front smaller panel. 
Inside the card is a pocket that holds the scratch-its..

Joy fold card with extra flips

 For a recent swap we were given the freedom to choose a fun fold of our own to send to a partner.. One of my fav folds is actually a Joy Fold.. I wanted to change it up a bit extra, so added some flips to it too. 

I am absolutely in love with how this turned out.. 
Using Kaiser - Outback Eve collection

Studio Light Christmas theme layout

 Christmas themed interactive layout

Using Studio Light papers, I put together this interactive front hinge style layout with room for a large photo and two 6x4 photos.. Although the front journal cards allow for the options for changing them for more photo space.
