Love this Moment

Love this Moment

Hoppy Easter Everyone!!!

Hello and Welcome to my DT share with you today.

Love this Moment.

For this layout I have used the Circles chipboard to add feature.

I love these circles and they reminded me of Mickey's Ears!!

So they were perfect to add to this Disney layout.

Moments are Everything and Something Sweet by Danielle Vertigan

 

Each month seems to just wizz by us, and here I am again popping in with another share.

 

I cant believe October is nearly over and the silly season is about to begin.

 The year is just going too fast.

Looking back on past photos is something I really enjoy,

so for this particular share I was inspired by a few moments captured.

These layout just came together with lots of Scrapmatts goodness so its time for a few

sneaks to kick off my first share Moments are Everything....

 

 

I Spritzed these flowers and then added a touch of shimmer.

 

The Lavender stalks I prepped with Gesso.

Once they where dry I ran them through the excess spray in my spritzing station.

It gave it a real Ombre look.

 

 

Using a 5x7 image I decided to cut my little man out.

It was the perfect image because the background had not much happening and wasn't in focus.

 

I love the circles and with this one I prepped using Black Gesso first.

I spritzed this one with some colour shimmer after.

 

 

This was the first time I used this stencil and I Loved it!!

 

 

 

The butterflies where prepped the same way I had the stems.

 

The pop of white with the blue is really effective.

Who said you cant use flowers on a boys layout.....

 

I used the following chipboard sets

 

ST9027 - A5

 

 

CB1026 Flowers 06

 

 

CB5152 Circles 02

I've cut this one up so I could work it into my page.

 

 

CB5165 Lavender 01

 

My next share is Lovely and Sweet.

The hearts stencil is one of my favourites in the range.

I use it alot and even use the hearts to sprinkle around the layout. It can be fiddly but is worth the effort.

 

 

The Stencil is the Perfect touch.

My favourite embellishment is the little hearts sprinkled around the page using the stencil.

 

 

I love the chain effect as it trickles down the page.

I used chalk ink direct onto the chipboard with no previous preparation.

I started with the pink then feathered the navy straight from the pad

It only needed a touch on the edges.

 

 

The Scrolls where a black chipboard.

I dabbed these roughly with a metallic pink ink. If you wanted a more dramatic colour

you could prep these with Gesso.

Its a great way to use coloured chipboard.

 

The bottom butterfly was a reverse colour combination of the top.



 

 

Lastly a close up of the stencilling.

You will see that I didn't keep the top lines straight starting them at different points.

Its a really fresh layout with a touch of navy that really finishes it off nicely.

 

I used the following Scrapmatts products

ST5036

 

CB1067 Flourishes 10

 

CB1015 Butterflies 15

 

CB1077 Bird Cages 03

(I used 1 cage and 1 bird)

Till next time

Boho Dreams

Boho Dreamcatcher.

Hello and Welcome

I hope your April has been a creative one.

This month I have created a dreamcatcher and a layout using Scrapmatts products.

 

Lets start with the Dreamcatcher.

I used the beautiful Indigo Skies range from Kaisercraft. 

I actually completed this Dreamcatcher for their challenge last month.

This is the front and back of my dream catcher.

Front View

The butterflies are cut from the Indigo Skies Paper Collection. I fussy cut them from the sheet.

Chipboard used is from Scrapmatts.

Flowers are from 49 and Market, Kaisercraft, Green Tara and my own stash.

The metal butterfly is from Finnabair.

Tags are from Kaisercraft's Off the Wall Collectables.

Polaroid frame is from Kmart's craft section.

The paint swatches are from Bunnings. I picked them up for another challenge but they worked perfectly as the background colour for my photo mat.

Back View

Again I have embellished with butterflies from Indigo Skies

Chipboard is from Scrapmatts

The Polaroid frame is from the Off the Wall collectables

 Precious Layout

I have used the new Sage and Grace from Kaisercraft.

The colours are so beautiful. 

 Here I have used the Roses CB2023 Stem and then I have embellished with the collectables and a Green Tara flower.

I have used versa ink Umber to colour the chipboard.

I have used the butterfly stencil here with some texture paste.

I have sprayed the layout with Tattered Angels Creme de Chocolat

 The word is from the Assorted words 07 - CB6071

I have coloured with the Umber ink.

I have stamped the layout with Pinecone ink using the Botanical stamp from Kaisercraft.

Boy verses Girl.....

Good morning how are you all, Rikki here today with some new pieces for Scrapmatts. This time for those with boys / men in our lives. I must say when I only had my boys, layouts where so easy to do, then I had little miss and I got nervous, I mean I had been scrapping 8 years with boy only layouts, how was I meant to do girly? 

Then once I ''mastered'' the girly, it became increasingly hard to scrap boys, or maybe I was more aware of the availability of boy products verses girly ones..... Which made me think how did I do it before? Thank goodness for mixed media, I think that allows your get really creative when doing boy layouts.

CB5132 Chains 01 

CB1232 Film Strips 05

My Second layout for the month is something a little bit different for my style, but I am obsessed with this finish!!! While Scrapmatts where over in Western Australia, I got to demo after the demo was able to have a little play out the back, I have been waiting to play with these new rust paints forever and this was a perfect opportunity to try them out on some chipboard.

Till next month, have a creative day.
