October creating with Lizzy

 Hell there! How is your October going? I hope things are well with you..

Today I am sharing with you my layout I have created with some wonderful Scrapmatts products.

I have a few of the lovely Arch Window Frames in my stash and I wanted to use them in a different way on my page.. They make great frames around photos but I felt like cutting them up and placing on my page as features.

As I usually do I started by adding some interest to the back ground with stencils, one with texture paste and the other with an ink pad and dauber.

 

I cut one frame in half and I left one frame whole.

 

I kept a bit of a butterfly theme happening with these chipboard butterflies that I colored with glitter gel pens, adding different layers of color until I was happy with the rustic look.

 

I colored the feathers the same way with different glitter gel pens to give a multi-colored look. and placed them over some fussy cut feathers.

and my layout.

Remember to smile everyday.

 

I hope I have inspired you to look at your Chipboard and see if there is some way you can use them in a different way.  We are only limited by our imagination...  and that is where the Design Team inspiration comes along.. make sure you pop by again to see what else we have been creating!

May Creating with Lizzy.

Hello there,
How are you today? I trust you are keeping well and I am so happy you have come by the Scrapmatts blog today.

I have a layout and a card to share with you.

I had a really special photo of my Daughter and her Fiance and my Granddaughter that I wanted to frame on my page.. So I looked in my Scrapmatts and found the gorgeous  Hanging Hearts Chipboard that I thought would be perfect!! Let me share some closer views to highlight the lovely Scrapmatts products I have used..

I popped a few stencilled Hearts on my back ground

I covered the chipboard hearts with paper that had been embossed to add some texture..

And my photo that is framed by this gorgeous Scrapmatts Heart Frame.. It is simply painted white with white gesso with some pretty pink rhinestones glued randomly around the frame.. I used string to attach the other hearts and make little bows on the frame..

To make the photo fit inside the frame I used the heart as a template to draw on my photo and then I cut my photo out..

It is then a matter of layering the photo between the frame and the heart backing chipboard..

And the Scrapmatts title completes my layout..

and my layout..

And here are the Scrapmatts I have used..

And I created a simple card that I would like to share with you.

I like cards that are reasonably flat so they can be posted.. I have colored the Rose chipboard with black to make them a feature.. They are so intricate and pretty.. a few mauve rhinestones to add a little pop of sparkle and match the flowers..
