Winter Babe-CE

Hi fellow scrappers... I'm here sharing a winter themed baby layout with you all, that I created as my design team project for Creative Embellishments.. I love looking at old photos on my daughters facebook feed and seeing how our grand daughter has grown and developed the last two years.  I decided I wanted to grab a few photos from her feed and create a winter themed layout using some of the snow flake chippies from the Creative Embellishments shop..

Here is what I created:

I want to apologize for the quality of the photo but living in Finland during this time of year, well its gloomy.. We only have about 6 hrs of daylight and even then, you can't really call it day light..LOL

I used some of my favorite papers by Simple Stories and added my chipboard elements to match the color scheme.. I used Distress Oxides again to color my chipboard, which I think is such an easy way to add color to them, plus I used the same oxides to create my background with, so another great way to get your colors to match..

I absolutely love these hanging snowflakes.. they are the sweetest element to add to any layout .. I wanted to stay within my color scheme so colored most of them light blue and then the one orangy brown to match my papers.. which is kind of hard to see the true colors in my photos..

I wanted to create some clusters of elements around my photos, so I used two of the harlequin chipboard elements, painting them to match and adding a few snow flakes here and there..  I also kept with the harlequin shapes, by using the distressed shapes stencils and some white paint around the edge of my layout.   For that final little touch of detail, I used the distressed script stamp and some blue Archival ink to stamp some text all over my layout..

and there you have my winter themed layout for todays Design Team reveal..  I want to thank you for stopping by and I hope I inspired you to get your snow flakes out and get crafting..  Till next time

Hugs

Sweet Memories

Hi fellow scrappers... 

I'm here today sharing a "sweet" themed layout with you all that I created as my design team project for Creative Embellishments..

Here is what I created:

Because I feel almost obsessed with mason jars, I came up with the idea of filling these jars with a bunch of Xmas goodies.  I started by first applying white gesso the jars, let that dry and added the color using Distress Oxides.   The blue for the jar is  Tumbled Glass and for the lids, I used Vintage photo and Rusty Hinge Distress Oxides..

I also adhere some clear transparency film to the backs of the jar, so I could glue the candies to that, creating the illusion of filled jars..

The candy's and candy canes I printed on my printer and then colored with my Copic markers, they are attached to the jars using foam..

I wanted to add a little something to edges of my layout and the snowflake stencil was perfect.. Used some light texture paste in white and then doodled some white lines with my white gel pen, I also added some white Nuvo drops to the centers of the snowflakes and randomly around the background of my layout.  The title to my layout was created using a Silhouette Cameo.

The photos are of my daughter and little grand daughters first Christmas 2 yrs ago..

and there you have my sweet layout for todays reveal.. thank you for stopping by and I hope I gave you an idea of how to use these awesome jars from the Creative Embellishments online store..

Till next time

Rubber Ducky layout

Hi fellow scrappers.. 

I'm here sharing a cute little bath themed layout I created as my design team project for Creative Embellishments, using the adorable duck shaker chippy and lots of cute bubbles, which can also be found in the Creative Embellishments shop..

Here is what I created:

Our little grand daughter loves her little rubber ducky's.. She doesn't wanna take a bath with out them ..

How about a few close ups:

I used Distress Oxydes to color my chipboard elements.. so easy and inexpensive way to color chippies.. I also added white Nuvo drops to my chippies..

I used lots of bubble chippies and attached them to my layout using foam tape, which gives them dimension..

for the title and wording, I created those using my Silhouette Cameo..

and there you have my layout for today's reveal.. Thank you so much for stopping by and checking out my project.. Till next time..

Hugs
