My Family back in 1951 Layout for ***Graphic 45***!!!

Goodmorning lovely friends,

I am a huge fan of old photos so I went to my uncle & moms Facebook page to steal some.

This one is with my great grandmother in the middle on the left you see two of my granddad’s sisters and on the right my two great grandfathers.

I also really love soft toned Graphic 45 paper collections so that’s why I used an older one here “A Ladies Diary” you can surely remember that one right? The graphics are amazing and on this layout I used two molds a set of little hands to hold the title and a frame to hold the photo.  

My Family back in 1951: 

Making layouts is my thing as you can see, also I love to add layers so that’s what I did with this one. Stitching is my signature style as you see here I did that on both cream colored sheets. Then I used a script stamp and a stencil to my layout and later on I added some white spray. For this layout I did a lot of fussy cutting which is very relaxing but also very time consuming and of that last one I don’t have that much. 

Metal embellishments are amazing to use and on this layout I have used two buckles, one in the left upper corner and one in the right lower corner. And wow even for me it’s odd that I didn’t use any chipboard pieces on this one. 

I distressed all the edges of my layout, building this page was very easy and this one was made within five hours without counting the fussy cutting part. I colored the molds pieces with some sprays, acrylic paints matte & metallique and some waxes. 

I also used the stickers sheet which is full of pretty phrases, words and letters. The letters I used for my title, and I also used the “Graphic 45 unique papercrafting” in my buckles I cut them off my papers. 

That beautiful lady was lifted with foam tape so I could add that flower cluster in the end I added some bubbles and waxes on the flowers to soften them up a little. 

I also did a lot of fussy cutting on this layout I find that very relaxing.

My Beauties ~ Last Layout ~ for ***ScrapAndMe***!

    Hello creative friends, 

Although it makes me a little sad that this is my final layout as a DT member of ScrapAndMe, I am also glad that I could make some space for other talent. Anna thank you so much for having me on your design team I really enjoyed working with your gorgeous papers & I will still be using them on my creative journey. Your are such a sweet, generous & lovely person with tons of patiënts. But for now I have look after my health & other family things. For this layout I used one of my favorite paperlines called "Beauties" most of those flowers are my favorite kind in real life. 

My Beauties: 

For my layout I used a picture of Kevin & Abbey a couple of months after she was born back in 2019. This picture really shows the love between siblings then and now they are inseparable even with such a age difference of 14 years. Kevin will turn 18 within two weeks and Abbey is the one that can't wait to celebrate it even more then Kevin does.

 Hello sweet crafty friends, 

It's the 8th of the month and that means another challenge over at the ScrapAndMe blog. This time it's the #100 challenge and that means it's a "Anything Goes"! With that being said I made a 12 by 12 layout using the pretty NEW "Dream a Little" collection. For this layout I used a picture of nieces Merel & Mijntje at a photoshoot a while back. 

Happy Memories to Remember: 

I did some stenciling & layering the background. The leaves I made them look like the are bold if you know what I mean. The frame around the picture is also handmade with the papers and my sewing machine.

Oh boy am I happy with this gorgeous collection, it has such beautiful elements to cut out and play with for this layout I used a picture of Abbey being silly. I did a lot of stitching on this layout and the flowers are also handmade with the papers.

On the background I used some stamps & a stencil and I also cut out some pretty butterflies from the butterfly sheet. The edges of my layout are distressed this was such a fun page to make because this is totally in my comfortzone.
