All things Scrapmatts by Danielle Vertigan

Hi its Danni here today,

To say things have been hectic is an understatement.

I've lost track of days and months but on the bright side I've enjoyed an

amazing trip exploring this vast country of ours and due to an

injury I just may have snuck is some scrapping as we went.

 

I've got a bit of a gallery for you today sharing all things Scrapmatts from some of my favourite

layouts.

A flourish can be added to just about anything and boy what a feature do they make

when they are embossed.

Here they are accompanied by the Word Tiles!

These are just one of the most effective little gems.

CB1003 Flourish 04

CB1206 Scrap Words 09

 

 

The CB5102 Window 02 was absolutely perfect to showcase this little man.

I removed the ledge and embossed the frame to welcome Beau.

CB6084 Alphabet Flags 01 I left raw and used them as my title.

 

Who doesn't love string Circles!!

So I've slipped in this piece for a peak.

CB5114 String Circles 01

 

 

I had a lot of fun with this one.

Its amazing what we can do with left over pieces.

Particularly when using sets we can often put pieces aside and forget about them.

There to long. not quite right.....

In this layout I have trimmed some down and separated others to wrap around my layout.

This is a great way to utilise your pieces and maximise there effect.

Here I've used

CB4069 Ornate Frames 26

CB4060 Ornate Frames 17

CB4034 Floral Design 01

 



 

I have a new favourite stencil!

ST5005

Its featured recently in 2 of my layouts and I just wanted to share how

fabulous it is.

I think the best part is how this stencil creates all the embellishment these layouts needed.

 

I hope you can take away some inspiration from this and us it on your next project.

 

 



Spring has SPRUNG!

Hello Scrapmatts fans! 

I am super happy that we are now in my favourite season  SPRING! 

Here are some of my new creations using Scrapmatts chippies :)

Love Your Smiling Eyes

 On this layout I have used: CB4060 Ornate Frames 17 which I have coloured black and snipped in half to make my chippies go further. I have also used: CB1189 Scrapwords 01 and the W from the CB6084 Alphabet Flags 01. 

Next up is a cute colourful card I made for a challenge but never got around to posting it!!

Rainbow Bird Card

On this card I have used: CB5045 Birds 04 and dipped them randomly in dylusions ink sprayed onto a mat. 

Lastly here's a quick messy layout I completed:

Today

 on this one I have used:CB6092 Ornate Frame 20 Which I gessoed and then randomly painted with Sparkling H2O's, CB1190 Scrapwords 02 and CB1200 Scrapwords 08 to draw attention to the centre of the layout and the pics. Lastly I have added in a few of my FAV Scrapmatts chippy - CB5082 Leaf Spray 02 in behind the flowers.

Thanks for looking! 

Now go and enjoy some beautiful sunshine!

When layouts go wrong....

Hello Scrapmatts fans, Renee here with a series of tags that started off life as a layout.

 I had started to create a mixed media background for a layout but it seriously went wrong so instead of binning it (as sections of it were kinda rockin') I thought I could turn it into a series of tags. I have used quite a few packets of Scrapmatts chippies and charms but I have modified some (like snipping the frame and using it on 3 different tags and the flat charms, snapping them and using the off cuts on another tag.) 

Here I have used: CB5111 Layered Fob Watch 02, CB1198 Scrapwords 06, CB6084 Alphabet Flags 01, CB6096 Ornate Frame 24, CH043 Assorted Charms #4

 Here I have used: CB3004 Tags 02, CB2026 Picket Fences 09, CB1206 Scrap Words 09, CH043 Assorted Charms #4. 

 Here I have used: CB3008 Tags 04, CB6060 Christmas Trees 01 , CB1219 Scrap Words 20, CH043 Assorted Charms #4.

 Here I have used: CB3008 Tags 04, CB6096 Ornate Frame 24, CB1206 Scrap Words 09, CH017 Filigree Corners #2

  Here I have used: CB3008 Tags 04, CB1195 Silhouettes 03, CB5031 Mini Frames 01, CB5096 Layered Frames 02, CB1189 Scrapwords 01

Here I have used: ATC10-025 Sewing Spool 01, CB6096 Ornate Frame 24, CB1190 Scrapwords 02, CH043 Assorted Charms #4.

I hope you enjoy having a look at my spontaneous tag set as much as I enjoyed making it!
