Family Photo's Layout for ***ScrapAndMe***!!

 Hi my lovely friends,

How lovely of you to visit my blog today, this time I have scrapped a picture of my little family. We did a photoshoot about two months ago and we let the picture look one we made more then a year ago, only Abbey was making silly faces because she didn't want to be on a picture. 

Family Photo's:

For this layout I combined three paper collections {love doing that} and lots of layering, stitching & fussy cutting. I also added a stencil on the background. This was such a fun layout to create hope you like it.

A Moment With You is Magical Layout for ***2Crafty Chipboard***

 Hi there lovely friends, 

I am excited to show you my second layout for 2Crafty, for this one I used the color yellow which I not use that often. But when I got my new 2Crafty chippies I knew exactly which ones I wanted to use & with what paper collection I was going to use it. The picture is a oldie and I wanted to use it since we are going to celebrate our 10th wedding anniversary next month. 

A moment with you is magical: 

2Crafty Chipboards used: 
 Fine Word Set 2
Frame Fine Circle with Butterflies
11"Fine Floral Frame Set
Foliage Set 6
A Moment With You

All the chipboard pieces are treated with gesso and "purely white"embossing powder then I added a layer of wax with two different colors {rusty brown and old white} on the foliage pieces I added some green matt acrylic paint and on the little circles I added gold pearlecents.

I did some machine stitching around my picture, and also used some pretty flowers, rub-ons, wishing bubbles and did a lot of fussy cutting from the "sunflower" collection by ScrapAndMe. At the end I added some frozen jack frost & shimmer spray. 

I also added some rub-on words & three beautiful butterflies made by my very talented friend Renea Harrison. Thank you so much for your visit and I hope to see you next time.

Much love and happy crafting...

Magic Winter Time DT Layout for *Maja Design* + Playing at Mixed Media & Art, Cuts2luv and Words & Paintry Challenges!

Goodmorning lovelies, 

How was your first week of the new year? 

For me it's still kind of a roller coaster helping my mom getting her house cleaned up after her husband died {my stepdad}, husband still at home on sick leave and getting our son more into his school work. It's a hard job being a mom a good wife and daugther. But I am not complaining, yesterday I had some free time in my craft room and made this layout for my DT work at Maja Design and thought "well" maybe I could make something to enter a challenge again it's been a while since I have done that.  

Magic Winter Time: 

This layout was made with the pretty new Maja Design collection "Joyous Winterdays" I added a lot of mixed media elements like paste, stamps, a stencil clear drops, prills, snow, glass glitter, sprays and some crackle paste. This was a really fun page to create eventhough I don't like winter I do love making winter layouts. The chipboards are treated with gesso {white} crackle paste and snow effects and a touch of gliss glitter.  

At the end I added some sequins by "dress my craft" and I added some shimmer sprays by Lindy's Stamp Gang called "Don't Eat Golden Snow"to my flower clusters I also used two flair on my layout. 

Maja Design papers used: Evergreen bs, Outdoors bs, Pick a tree bs, Santa Claus, Ephemera & Ephemera bs.

Other products used: 

Dusty Attic chipboard, Stencils, Paste, Lindy’s Stamps Gang sprays and embossing powders, Stamps, Mica Powders, Cheese Cloth, Clear gesso, Gesso white, Ink & Waxes

With this layout I will be participating in three different challenges first up: 

Is the amazing December challenge at the Mixed Media & Art blog I was really inspired by the pretty colors and amazing sketch although it turned out a little different as I was planning let's have a look: 

For the second challenge I will be entering, we have to go over to Cuts2luv blog where they also have a lovely mood board and I was inspired by the colors I only left out the pink and orange colors but I added the word winter, used a snow picture, texture paste and as I just see now it looks a lot like the sketch hihihi just have a look: 

And the third challenge which I will be attending is the one over at the Words & Paintery they also have a pretty mood board with the same soft toned colors that I used in my layout. 

Thank you so much for your visit today and I hope I have inspired you to make some beautiful art with your crafty supplies. Have a wonderful day and upcoming weekend.....

Little Princess Layout for *Cuts2luv*, *Maja Design* & *The Dusty Attic*!

Goodmorning lovelies, 

Today I am back again showing you some mood board inspiration for my guest designer spot at the Cuts2luv blog. This time my layout is made with Maja Design papers, Petaloo flowers and Dusty Attic chipboard. And again I used three new flairs on my work aren't they the cutest ever? I really love this mood board it got me thinking outside the box...since it was really easy to make another beach layout with it. I adore making layouts with sleeping babies too so that is why I made this layout.

Little Princess: 

  I used almost every element from the moodboard. I used the sketch, the word bliss, a baby/kid picture, doilies, clean & simple style and I started out by using the colors from the board but I later on added the colors pink and old pink to my work.

I started my layout by inking the edges of my background sheet with some Lindy's Stamp Gang sprays then I stamped a script and dot clear stamp randomly on my sheet after that I splattered three different sprays on it. I added a stencil on the background too...I cut out four doilies by Cheery Lynn in two sizes and added them in the lower right part of my layout and behind my picture.

Then I treated my chipboard with different mediums and placed them on my layout where I thought it looked nice then I build my page with the flowers and flairs. I finished my layout by adding some sequins, prills, mica flakes, pearlescents and some word strips.

Beautiful Layout for ***The Dusty Attic***

Goodmorning everyone, 

I am up on the blog today with a layout I made not using Maja Design papers "yep" I can make something with other papers too lol....for this layout I used several 7 Dots Studio collections. This time I also used some pretty Prima Marketing flowers I think I am a addict when it comes to flowers. I treated the chipboard pieces I used all differently some with just acrylic paint and others I embossed.  

Beautiful: 

This paper exists out of wood grain which I really love. For this layout I cut the wood grain pattern and distressed it heavily after that I cut out some more strips of that same papers which I also distressed and added them on my layout on three places. Then I splattered three different sprays on the paper and I also added the heart stencil {my favorite} with the Dusty Attic texture paste.

As you can see here I painted the frame that's around my picture with some acrylic pink paint by The Dusty Attic. Later I added some rust paste plus white crackle paste and I finished it off with a metal gem. The word "Beautiful" was embossed with two colors Lindy's embossing powder and the small chains I gessod and spray painted. 

Oh how I enjoy playing with chipboard so much I can't imagine to not use it on my layouts it just feels not finished when I don't use it. This layout was really a happy layout to create and I will be creating more very soon.
