You are the Sunshine

 Hi Creative Friends and welcome back to my blog. Today I am sharing a layout for 49 and Market with the brand new Countryside collection. 

This collection is so perfect for fall photos. In this layout i have incorporated the 12 x 12 Transfers as my main title. I could have loaded this layout with layers and florals, but i wanted the focus to be on the photo so i kept it a bit more simple. 

I love the ephemera in this collection, I have layered pieces here on the right of the photo which i felt enhanced the feel of the photo. I also used the subtitle from the chipboard pack " You bring the Sunshine" 

You can see all the elements on the right of the photo, the bicycle, milk cans, fence and chicken. so perfect!

Here is the layout full view, I also tucked in a couple cut stitched frames to frame the photo a bit. I hope you love it as much as I do.

Remember Today - Dusty Attic

 Hello Creatives and welcome back! Today i am sharing a project for Dusty Attic. 

This project is based on this months mood board, which is filled with bright and vibrant colors.  

Using a photo of my nephew and at the time this photo was taken, his fiance, who are now married. I added sepia tones to the photo and then added in some layers. The colors in this collection make this months mood board easy to work with. 

Beginning with some mystic flourish flame, i set the photo on that, then added bookplates, and Mystic Flourish in and around my flowers

I set my title on the florals painting it a light blue using chalk paint.  I cut apart the mystic flourishes and added then in and around my flowers. 

You still have time to try out this months mood board.

Love this Most - Mini Album - 49 and Market

 

Good Morning creative friends welcome back to my blog today.  I am sharing a mini album with you using the gorgeous Plum Grove on one of the Foundations Albums. 

To begin with, i painted all the inside pages in a light purple color and let that dry, i then covered the front and back of the album with the beautiful Fabric Tape. What a quick and easy way to give your mini albums some incredible color. 

I did the same on the spine, using the smaller fabric tape strips

Here are some photos of the inside of the mini album. Plum grove has some amazing colors that suit the fall colors here in Ontario. And i hope to fill this album with photos taken this fall. 

Using the Laser Cuts throughout the album added great color and layers. Along with the Ephemera, and file folders to tuck in added photos. I used fabric tape again on the inside spine to blend those spaces. 

The Ephemera is a great way to add some small details to your frames and photos without making your mini album too bulky. 

**I see in some of the photos the washi tape started to peel back from the album cover, so i will need to go back and use a dries clear adhesive in some spots**

I hope you create some beautiful projects with this collection.

Amidst The Roses - Scrap and Me

 Hello friends and welcome back to my blog as i share  a layout designed using Amidst the Roses from Scrap and Me. 

Fussy cutting out flowers from the flower sheer, i layered these on the right side of the photo to add interest

I layered the fussy cut images using foam adhesive and love how this turned out. 

I decided to add some hand made roses using a florals 16 from Elizabeth Crafts.
