Love Blooms Here in the New Year!!!

Love Blooms Here in the New Year.

Happy New Year and Welcome to 2019.

I hope your new year has started off with lots of creative juices flowing.

Today I wish to share with you 2 layouts I have created with some beautiful Scrapmatts chipboard.

The first layout I have created is Love Blooms Here.

I have used the gorgeous Stargazer papers from Kaisercraft.

To create the layers I have ripped and torn the papers and used the very fine vines from the 

Ornate Frames chipboard.

To colour the chippy I have used the Wink of Stella Black glitter pen.

The chipboard title is one of Scrapmatts new word titles. How cute is it?

Here is the products used on this layout

**********************************************

Now for my second layout.

This layout was based on a sketch from Dusty Attic.

This layout features logs of gears and cogs from Scrapmatts.
To colour them I used a combination of inks and rust paste.
Papers are from Stamperia called Clockwise.
Embellishments are from Kaisercraft factory 42 collection, which complimented these papers perfectly.

Below is the chipboard used on this layout.

CB1073

CB1078

CB1075

I cut these pieces up to give me more gears.

With this piece I have ripped it up to create the border down the sides.

DreamCatcher by Heather

 

Good morning all

 

Happy new year. I hope that you have all had a very merry Christmas and a safe and fun new year.

 

The first project below is something that I have been wanting to try for a while, so when I got the Scrapmatts Dream Catcher chipboard I gave it a go. It turned out differently to what I had envisaged, but I am still happy with it.

 

 

To make the card I drew the colour inspiration from my altered dream catcher. There are layers of paper/cardstock, Scrapmatts stencils with white gesso, pearl flourish, tulle, art stones, flowers, lace, muslin, and of course the Scrapmatts chipboard feathers

 

The products that I used are:

 

CB5186 Dreamcatcher 01 8 Pieces

 

 

CB1222 Feathers 02

CB6100 Words 29

 



 

ST9050-A5 Stencil Hearts

 

ST9072-A5 Plus Signs

January Creations with Tania

Hello there and a happy 2019 to you all!

Tania joining you today to share the first of my Creations for 2019 using lots of gorgeous Scrapmatts goodies! 

First up this month I have a Christmas layout.....

"I LOVE Christmas"

Once I had chosen my background papers, I got busy adding lots of texture using the Snowflake stencil.  I sprayed on a little colour until I was happy.   As I used all white finish Chipboard I kept them like this and just added some glitter to each to add a bit of sparkle being a Christmas and all!! I added lots of fussy cut poinsettia flowers and finished off my page with some bling.

Here's some close ups.....

Next up I have a Heart canvas to share.  

I made this canvas for one of my daughters friends and she just loves red!! 

"Beautiful Memories"

I started by adding texture to the blank canvas using the Hearts stencil.  Once I was happy,  I had lots of fun adding colour using a variety of different red sprays.  After I had my photos on,  I embellished the canvas with lots of beautiful blooms.  I coloured the Ornate's frames chipboard with red sprays and used some white finish chipboard for the titles.

A Warm Welcome to 2019 'Simple Pleasures' layout by Kim

Happy New Year!

A very warm welcome to 2019 to all of our 

dear Scrapmatts followers!

We have given you a few days to settle into the New Year and now we hope to inspire you!

Today I have a layout to share with you all. 

A layout created featuring my Grandfather.

Let me show you.....

{Simple Pleasures}

 

My Pop lived on the land his whole life, working the land and he was also a dairy farmer....he was a giant man but always so wonderful and kind to me.

My brother was on a genealogy website and came across this photo of our grandfather with one of my uncles. Well I knew this photo needed to be scrapped! 

Scrapmatts had the perfect chipboard embellishments to go with this precious photo!

  

[Isn't it just perfect!!!] 

Now, I had these pieces in white mist, so all I did was ink them to match in with my paper and design. The Grass chipboard pieces came in the green, so no need to change them!

 I also managed to find a little Scrapmatts silhouette dog to add to the bottom right corner.

 I have had that giant Ric-Rac ribbon in my stash for so long. I cut small sections of it and frayed it out to make it look like grass and I really like the effect. Sometimes it's good to think outside the box.
