Happiness by Lauren Tomecek

Hello fellow chipboard fans! Thanks for checking out my reveal today. I've gone back to basics with a lot of classic pieces, along with some new leaf pieces. I have had a 12x12 sheet of CB8001 Circles 01 for so many years now, and I've used almost all of the 29 pieces up but just had two large circles left. I couldn't resist paring it with this oversized photo I had ordered in the wrong size. 


My title comes from CB6112 Scrap Words 31. The leaf pieces come from CB1246 Leaves 06. They come in a variety of sizes so are perfect to scatter around as accents.


My top cluster uses CB1209 Scrap Words 12, CB1189 Scrap Words 01 and CB4008 Butterflies 01. You can see little bits of Stencil 9017 net poking out of the edges from both clusters. 


Thanks for visiting!

String Circles Showcase by Lauren Tomecek

I loved the original string circles when Scrapmatts first brought them out. Then Sofie and Andrew made them better by bring out new designs with dots, stars or arrows on the circles. Last month they expanded the range again to release a pack with larger sized circles! I fell in love and knew I had to play with them right away.


My circle for this layout looks a bit more like an oval, because I actually chopped it in half to open up that inside area a bit more. It doesn't go all the way around under the photos or the flower cluster. I love cutting up my chipboard to make it last that little bit longer or get it to suit my layout better. I've done the same thing with the leaves and the diamond background pieces. 





My second layout is actually the one I created first, so it used the largest sized string circle and I haven't cut this one. I had a lot of fun creating that background circle with Gelatos but it did warp the page a fair bit. Some chipboard butterflies made the perfect scatter embellishments.



Don't forget, you can share your string circle creations with us on the Ning Gallery or Facebook page.

Summer and Christmas - Lauren Tomecek

Scrapmatts has a fantastic range of nautical/ beach themed chipboard designs, so I was very excited to take Harrison for his first visit to the beach and have an excuse to use some of these pieces. Plus, he seemed to have a ball chasing seagulls and getting splashed by the waves.
 
 
Scrapmatts used: CB1209 Scrap Words 12, CB4059 Nautical Design 03 and CB4067 Marine Life 02. I also picked up the hessian ribbon and adorable anchor paperclip (in a pack of four designs) when I visited the Scrapmatts stand at an expo last year. It is always worth visiting them at an expo, as meeting Andrew and Sofie in person is a real treat and they run the best classes. Plus, they normally have specials on extra bits and pieces like these which you can't order online. :)
 
 
My second project is a double page Christmas spread using two new release designs. This one shows how many different techniques you can use to colour chipboard. Some parts have been inked with a stamp pad, some have been painted with acrylic paints and some parts have been coloured with pens.


 
 Scrapmatts used: CB5145 Christmas Shapes 01 and CB5144 Layered Poinsettias 01. The poinsettias look great layered up but I've chosen to keep mine to only one or two layers to share them around the page a bit more.
 
 
I hope you had a great Christmas and New Year and managed to find some time to create. Don't forget to share your creations with us over at the Ning gallery!

Harrison Showcase

I know most of the rest of the design team is showcasing Christmas projects, but I'm a little obsessed with my son Harrison at the moment so he's staring in my two projects. I hope you find him just as adorable as I do. :)

We received our professional photographs by Rachael Wilson Photography from the newborn shoot we did when Harrison was ten days old recently and I just had to create a display for them. Scrapmatts chipboard made the perfect accent pieces for this. It's strange to see him looking this small, he's grown so much in just three months!


Scrapmatts used: CB6095 Assorted Words 18; CB1129 Australian Federation Corners 07; CB6093 Ornate Frames 21; CB1209 Scrap Words 12; CB6055 Prams 01; CB5035 Hot Air Balloons 01.


Following on from the 10-day old photos of Harrison, here is one taken last week. My journaling describes some of the early challenges we faced with breastfeeding, how we're working to overcome these and how much I enjoy post feed cuddles (which is when I took this photo).


There are so many different ways you can use chipboard but sometimes all it needs is a quick coat of paint like I've done here.

Scrapmatts used: CB5106 Chevrons 01; CB8001 Circles 01; CB4055 Assorted Words 09.

Wow, May already....

Can you believe it is May already?  The time really flies when you are busy.

Well I have two creations I would like to share with you.  The first is one of the shadow boxes that I have used to create a memory keeper.

Inside the box is the Garter Belt from my wedding.


I have also used one of the new assorted words (with arrows) [so cool]


And added a few hearts after embossing the blue to match the box.


For my second share I have a Layout I created just for fun.  This has a picture my mother sent me years ago from their trip to London.



And what is a London Layout without a telephone box, combined with a travel tag and a compass charm.  


Hope you have enjoyed my creations
