March Creating with Lizzy.

 Hello there! Here we are half way through March! And it is time for me to share what I have been creating for Scrapmatts!

I got some new papers from AB Studios and I don't know about you but when I get something new I cant wait to create with them!! 

The first thing I did was to add some stencilling and splash some water color around on my back ground paper... and yes I was so excited I forgot to take a photo of this before I added my embellishments. .hehe!! but I do have some closer views to show you some of the details..

I have gone with a bit of a circle theme on my layout, I love these stenciled circles adding some texture to the back ground.. and I have cut some segments of the Bubbles chipboard and popped them under the layers.. I painted the chipboard with white gesso..

I really like the dimension from  putting the chipboard under the fussy cut leaves and flowers..

A closer view of the chipboard title from the Scrap Words 06 pack and the Lavender chipboard that was painted with water color and the fabulous String Circle which forms a frame around my photo..

A Perfect Day.

The straws are simply tied together with string and glued onto my layout, something different to add some dimension. I do like how this layout came together with all the circular elements.

and here are the Scrapmatts I have used on my layout..

ST9071 Circles Stencil   

CB5131 Bubbles 01  

CB5139 String Circles 03 

CB1198 Scrapwords 06 

CB5165 Lavender 01 

And while I had all the papers and chipboard on my desk I thought I would make a card using basically the same design and elements of my layout.. 

a closer view..

Stencilling and paint on the back ground, the Bubble chipboard cut into a small segment and the smallest Circle frame, fussy cut flowers and a chipboard word to complete my card..

Celebrate.

So if you have created a layout that you are pleased with, how about creating a card along the same design and then you have a card in your stash ready for the next occasion!
