Slimline Plane and Train gate fold

 Planes, Trains and Automobiles....

Ok, maybe I didn't use an automobile, but I did use this super cute bike instead.

For this slimline swap card, I made a gate fold and included the belly band as well. I believe this gave me a great way to be able to include all these modes of transport perfectly.
The swap theme didn't require adding all of the modes of transport, it only really required one.. But it's so much more fun figuring out ways to add more when we can, right?!

I used papers from the Garage Days collection by Kaisercraft.
and stickers from Uncharted collection by Creative Memomies.

Love shades of Pink layout CM

Love shades of Pink layout


On the weekend I attended a local crop.
It was so lovely to be in the room with like minded lady, all encouraging & supporting each other. With everyone being a varying positions in their creative journeys, it was fun to share some tips & tricks and learn some myself too!
I threw this layout together as part of the crop challenge. Use 3 shades of one colour.
So obviously I choose Pink (with Red included) and just put together a basic & simple layout design that anyone no matter of experience level can follow along with.

Heart - Tearing layout

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!

Blossom layout

Blossom



This is another strips & scraps element layout. Using leftovers can help extend the use of your collections and allow for so many more projects to be made.
Blossom started off with a white cardstock base and smooshing pink ink.
Diagonal torn floral pattern paper with thinner strips placed under it for layering.
Finish it off with some photo mats and clusters and the layout is done.
This is one that can be completed in under 60min.
So if you need a fun and fast layout design that doesn’t need too much brain power, this is a perfect example!

Dream layout

 Scrapbook Fantasies   Creative Team. 

Dream


This gorgeous collection designed by Alicia Redshaw at Scrapbook Fantasies was the perfect thing to get me back into creating again.
Using plenty of scrap pieces to put together layouts that have a strip element to them.
This layout was very quick to put together.
With a white cardstock base, 3 wider strips underneath the layered photo mats in the middle section. The Colour cut dream catcher is an absolute delight! Finished off with some gauze under the mats and some sequins for an eye catching sparkle.

The Flash

 

How fun is this layout!
I'm in the middle of catching up on projects that have been shared on my facebook page but not here, so here we go --- 
This layout was made in May 2024 as part of a cyber crop challenge from  Scrapbook Fantasies .


The Flash 


I'm so thankful that Alicia, Quentin and the Redshaw saw the spark in me back in 2024 to get back into crafting. Unfortunately it fell flat pretty quickly afterwards, but I'm not back at it. April 2026.. I am trying to catch up on posting / uploading projects and working on plenty of new one's as well. 

Here are some close ups of this fun Flash layout featuring my boys quite a few years ago now, at Movie World on the Gold Coast.
