It's all in the details!

 

Hello creative community ...

I'm back again this month sharing some new creations - no themes this time, just some random pages and a step card I made recently. 

I'm actually on a mission at the moment to do something productive with a bunch of spare photos I have collected ... these have been kicking around in my study for a while so it's time for them to find homes on beautiful papers with some gorgeous detailed embellishments 💚

This is what I love most about Scrapmatts chipboards and stencils - they are incredibly versatile as far as creating your own co-ordinating embellishments goes. All I really need these days is one nice sheet of paper, a patterned stencil for the background and some chipboards I can custom colour 👌

Some pink ink finished off these words perfectly!

And these leaf spray chipboards look awesome with just some 

gold coloured ink added then touched with brown on the edges.

 

I used gold ink on these lovely detailed chippies then filled the lamp 

with liquid pearls to give the finished product a luminescent feel.

 

...and of course I couldn't resist a little bit of background action -

using this cobblestone stencil and ground coffee coloured ink to 

add interest to the flat background paper.

Then there were the little extras I just keep shoving in! lol 😜

- I'm not a fan of doing lots of journaling on my layouts so simple

 expressive words like these help me convey meaning in my pages 

without all the extra writing 💚

Here is my second offering - a layout put together with much the same formula as the last - 

* A beautiful sheet of paper

* A piece of card stock that helps tie in the colours in the photo

* A background stencil to lift my coordinating colour 

* A bunch of chipboard embellishments that compliment and convey meaning

* A few butterflies and flowers I just couldn't resist lol😉

These simple word pack are my go-to solutions for creating easy titles AND they save 

me a small fortune on buying elaborate procreated title embellishments.

 

I was keen to bring some of that blue into my background paper so I used this beautiful

stencil to lightly add a pattern to my background.

  

And the birds - of course - I truly believe that success lies in all 

these tiny details when it comes to creating beautiful unique layouts.

.  

My photo was taken on the banks of the Murrumbidgee River so I added in these lovely 

bullrush chipboards to compliment the photo

... the 'CAUTION - GIRLS AHEAD' sign was just added as good advice! 😜

And once more - I let these perfect and already finished chipboard words do my journaling for me...

And last but not least, I'm sharing a card I made for a very special friend...

She's a card maker too so really didn't need another Happy Birthday offering.

Instead I made sure I created something that would let her know how I feel about our friendship 💙

These are the perfect size for the front of cards! 

Of corse I'm up to my old tricks here again - journaling the easy way with chippie words 👌

Our favourite thing to do is sit and chat - this park bench will resonate with my mate when I give her this card - its s beautiful when you can communicate so much with one simple image! 💙💙💙

It's been great sharing with you again, happy creating people.

Cheers,

Kel
