Grease Monkey - Signature Album and Memory Box

Grease Monkey Signature album

 Project share..

Using a repurposed Cigar Box, I put together this truly stunning male themed Grease Monkey Signature album and Memory box for a special family friend for his 60th Birthday.

When updating my facebook page, I love to share progress photos along the way..

I'm very thankful and humbled to know that the album was used straight away at the party with his loved one's adding messages to it all throughout the night.

The photos are a bit mixed up, sorry.. But you get the idea. 

Or watch the video attached at the top for a better understanding of how it's all set out. 

 

Here is the set together, ready to be boxed and gifted.. :) 

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

 Back with a different design aspect to a recent swap.. 

As you all know, I like to create something with my own spin on things.. Never a person to settle on seeing what others make and then recreate, I had that special spark again that made me change and add some design aspects to give me a while new card and closure technique.

There we go, hope you all enjoyed that..

 Hi crafters, 

I do apologise for the absence lately. 

Life has been busy with my boys plus designing and launching classes at the store "My Scrapbooking Obsession", has had be stepping down from recent DT commitments.

I am back now though! 

However, although I am not currently on any challenge blog online Design Teams, I am still getting plenty of creative time in making SWAPS, designing layouts and cards for classes and of course getting plenty of sparks to create "just because" projects. 

September was fun as I filled the month with different projects. 

Please remember that you are all welcome to join me at my facebook crafting journey page - Scrap Crazy with Toni  - as this will give you the most updated info on designs, projects and videos.. 

Hope you're all well, happy scrapping.. Toni.. xoxo

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?

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.. 

What do you think?

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.. :)
