49 and Market - Summer Layouts with the Willow Collection

 Hello! I have been back in the scrapbook room now that the summer baseball season has come to a close! I've been using the 49 and Market Willow collection. I'm a big fan of anything green so this was right up my alley!



The greens in this line are perfect for photos taken in the great outdoors. These fishing photos were mounted and popped up on some ephemera layers. The title was created from one of the Vicki Boutin Mixed Media Chipboard Titles. My friend Stacy was doing a demo at the Edmonton Creative Scrapbook Carnival, and challenged me to use it on a layout. This was a perfect place to put it. She did a bit of stamping on it and colored it with distress ink before adding a couple of layers of embossing powder. It's big and bold and I love it!


When we were fishing in Northern Saskatchewan in 2020, this beautiful moth was in our cabin. I had not scrapbooked these photos yet, and this paper was the perfect excuse to get them into the album! I cut out the outer border so that I could use the inside to mount the photos. I like to stretch my patterned paper this way, and you know it's going to be a perfect match. 

Lastly, I created cards, using the ephemera, frames and sentiments from Pinkfresh Studios Foiled Sentiment Pack and from Memory Box Foiled circles. I embellished with pieces from the 49 and Market Laser Cut Elements. These are so perfectly cut out!


Thanks for stopping by! I hope you will check out this great line at Scrapshotz. Links above will take you to the Scrapshotz online store!

Simple Stories Simple Vintage Meadow Flowers Layouts & Video!

 Hello friends! Karla back today to share the layouts I created in one of the Scrap Shotz' Thursday Live Demos using the beautiful Simple Stories Simple Vintage Meadow Flowers collection. This collection is so lovely for spring or summer with its soft colours and vintage feel, and could work for so many different occasions! You can follow along to see the process to create these layouts, which came together quickly and easily HERE!


I used two 12x12 backgrounds from the collection pack that had preprinted layers already, creating a quick and easy layout base.


I used the chipboard frames for my focal photos, sizing my pictures using my Canon Selphy.


There are so many beautiful stickers on the 12x12 sticker sheet included in the collection pack,plus lots of pretty ephemera and chipboard elements to add dimension.


I used Vicki Boutin stencils and Distress Oxide ink to add some subtle areas of stenciling, using coordinating colours.

\

I used the preprinted lines on the background paper to write my journaling directly on the background.


This paper was perfect for our trip to a local park for a nature hike and picnic on Canada Day!


I added some of the foam stickers, pretty 49 & Market flowers and various gems to finish it off!


Be sure to head over to the shop to check out Simple Vintage Meadow Flowers! Happy crafting friends!

Facebook Live July 25! Altenew Simple Colouring and Layering Stencils!

Hello Scrap Shotz Friends!

Rosie here and this past week I was live with a crafty demo showcasing the Altenew Dreamy Daylilies 3D Embossing Folder & Simple Colouring Stencil and Mega Blossom Layering Stencil!

View the video HERE!



I inked the flat side of the embossing folder (side with name of folder printed on it) with Sunray Crisp Dye Ink and then run through my die cut machine with white cardstock. I repeated this 3x to achieve the warm yellow background on this card front. I taped the cardstock to the folder to ensure it didn't shift during the re-inking process.

Next, I coloured the petals and leaves with the coordinating Simple Colouring Stencil using Tickle Pink, Tangerine Dream and Lettuce Celebrate Fresh Dye Inks. These are from the Summer Sunrise and Ocean Dreams Fresh Dye Ink cubes.

The sentiment is gold hot foiled with the Altenew Essential Sentiments Hot Foil Plate and die cut with the coordinating Essential Sentiments Die. The foiled sentiment is also inked with Tangerine Dream Fresh Dye Ink and then adhered with Altenew Instant Dimension Foam Tape. The card is embellished with a handful of Altenew Satin Gold Sequins.


This card front is first embossed with the folder including with a Spellbinders Platinum 6 machine purchase and then inked with the Altenew Mega Blossom Layering Stencil.

The last layer is inked with Tangerine Dream Fresh Dye Ink and then layered with Nuvo Moonstone Glimmer Paste.


You can see the paste layer in this photo, I finished off the card with a hot foiled sentiment and some Satin Gold Sequins.

BONUS CARD!!!!

In the live I gave of teaser of the card I would create with the Floral Radiance Layering Stencil. Here is the completed project!


The stenciling is done on coloured cardstock to begin and ink colours are from the Altenew Summer Sunrise and Ocean Dreams Fresh Dye Ink sets.

The final layer is inked with Altenew Clear Embossing Ink and coated with Altenew Antique Silver Crisp Embossing Powder and heat set.


Sentiment is again popped up with Altenew Instant Dimension Foam Tape and is from the Essential Sentiments Hot Foil Plate and Die Set which you can special order!

Thanks for stopping in!
