Happy Family Day Layout with Prima Capri & a Video

Hello friends! Karla here today with a pretty double page layout using the gorgeous Prima Capri Collection. The colours and images in this collection are so lovely, and I thought some photos from Family Day this year would look beautiful with them! We visited the Devonian Gardens downtown Calgary, which is an indoor garden, and is absolutely beautiful. 

I put together a video to show you how I put together the first page of this layout-

I decided to use a sketch from the March SCT 365 - 2020 Online Class to create this double page layout. I grabbed some teal bazzill cardstock from my stash and added it as accent colour, matting my photos and using some of the same colours from embellishments and papers in the collection. 

The Prima Flowers, Ephemera, Wood and Puffy Stickers and Gems are all so pretty!

I cut apart one of the 12x12 sheets to use a Postcard as an area to journal.

I even diecut butterflies with some of the floral paper with my Cricut to embellish my page further.

By adding layers of the Ephemera, using foam tape, and adding the paper flower and gems I added lots of texture & dimension.

The wood stickers are so cool and have such a great effect on the page! Of course, I love how the papers all work together so well and layer wonderfully.

Thanks so much for stopping by! Be sure to head over to the Scrap Shotz Store to check out the Prima Capri Collection. I hope in light of recent events you're all staying safe and healthy and I wish you all a crafty week 💖

New Product - Prima Capri Collection & Video

Hello friends! Karla back today with a look at the beautiful Prima Capri Collection, designed by Frank Garcia. The colours and images in this collection are stunning, and you'll find yourself reaching for it for so many different occasions! I can totally see travel, but also wedding, spring and summer, photos you'd like to scrap of little girls - or maybe vintage tea parties.... Seriously, you're going to love it!

Here's the video where you can see all the amazing crafty goodness closeup!

The Prima Capri 12x12 papers can be purchased individually, but you may just have to have two of each... they are beautiful!

The front sides (above) have a wonderful gold shattered foil effect, and below you can see the beautiful back sides. There are lots of cut apart elements on these pages - perfect for cards and pocket pages too!

There are two different Ephemera packs available - here's a look at the 32 piece package. The images coordinate with the papers and other elements below and various pieces have the same gold foiled effect again!

The Florals that are available in this collection are such wonderful colours, and those Crystals are just the perfect bling!

There are two different packs of Stickers to match - Wood and Puffy!

Be sure to head over to the shop to check out the Prima Capri Collection and grab it while it's still available!

 Thanks so much for stopping by! Have a wonderful week friends!

NEW Wild Whisper & Nicole Wright Designs - Media Assemblage Home Decor Inspiration!

Hello friends! Karla back again with a look at the gorgeous Media Assemblage paper line from Nicole Wright and Wild Whisper. Oh My Goodness... this line is AMAZING! Seriously, if you love mixed media - it's for you... if you love the look, but not the mess - it's for you... if you just love gorgeous paper - you guessed it - it's for you! But seriously, this paper is awesome. I recently shared three home decor ideas for Wild Whisper so I wanted to share them here since they are now in the Scrap Shotz Store!

To create some pretty wall art, I grabbed a couple dollar store frames and simply added the gorgeous paper inside. Next, I used some of the Strength of the Season cut files from the Wild Whisper Shop and used my Cricut Maker to cut them using Adhesive Foil. Check out the video linked below to see just how easy this was!

I really love these papers - think of how lovely this idea would be for teacher gifts, birthdays... And who wouldn't think this took you hours?!!

Love this quote - again one of the cut files from Wild Whisper that coordinates with the Strength Of The Season collection!

Lastly, I decided to cover some cardboard magazine holders with another sheet of the beautiful paper. After cutting the strips to fit the width I added some Wild Whisper Strength of the Season ephemera diecuts and a few sequins from Strength of the Season and the Masculine collections.

I can totally see using this paper to cover even more things - maybe even coordinate my albums... 

You can pick up the 6 pack or the double 12 pack and each package comes with one beautiful bonus sheet! 

To get a closeup of each of these papers, as well as the bonus sheet, and see how I put the wall art together - be sure to check out the video below.

Thanks so much for stopping by! I hope you have a  really awesome week my friends - stay crafty!!

NEW Wild Whisper Masculine Collection - Scrapbook Layout Idea

Hello friends! Karla back today with a layout I created for Wild Whisper using the fabulous NEW Wild Whisper Designs Masculine Collection. Let me tell you, even if you don't have a guy in your life - you're going to want these gorgeous papers!! The colours and textured look of these 12x12 cardstock papers are amazing.... I wanted to create a layout about a card my husband and his mom have sent back and forth for each of their birthdays since 1983, and I just love how these papers worked together to document this special tradition.

I used a patterned paper background that looks like a wooden frame with a fabric insert. I decided to play on that by 'tacking' up the photos of the card with tack diecuts, cut out with my Cricut, adding a jar of Peanut Butter and a cute peanut, as well as the titles - all cut with the Cricut from the Wild Whisper papers. 'The Peanut Card' and 'EST 1983' are cut with Nicole Wright's new Media Assemblage papers, which are amazing! The Wild Whisper Papers work beautifully for diecuts.

Here, I used a mini frame from one of the cut apart pages and added my journaling inside it! 

I even used the branding strips, cutting them into washi tape strip pieces. The sequins in this collection are definitely delicious, and you're going to find lots of uses for them!

Here's a look at this amazing collection-

New Product Review - Lawn Fawn Center Picture Window Cards

Hello friends! Karla back today with three super cute cards using the brand new Lawn Fawn Center Picture Window Card Die and Add On. As soon as I saw these die sets I knew I would love using them... and I do!! There are just so many possibilities, and you can use this card design with any of the stamp sets you have already, or with the cute new ones I’m featuring here 😉

The first card uses fun stamps from the new Say What Pets Set. I coloured the images with Copics and created a sweet scene on both the front and inside. The Add On set has lovely stitched rectangles sized to perfectly fit the front, back and inside panels. I used some border dies from my stash to add grassy areas to the front oval and inside base. The T-shaped scoring die, included in the main die set, works perfectly to configure any border to fit the Center Window area.

The fun little stackable dies add so much dimension and are so easy to assemble!

I added an area on the back of the card to write a little message and stamped a greeting with another Lawn Fawn Set, Butterfly Kisses.

For the next two cards I’m using the new Lawn Fawn Smooth Sailing stamp set. I grew up in Nova Scotia, so lighthouses and sailboats have a special place in my heart. For this card I wanted to create a nighttime scene, so I used the star and moon die from the Center Picture Window Card die set. I love the little accessories that come with this set and the Add On! The Lawn Fawn Sparkle Spring Cardstock gives a little glimmer to the card and I used the oval diecut from the Center Picture Window Card Die Set to cut a focal area for the front of the card.

I used the Lawn Fawn Wavy Sayings Stamp Set to add a thank you sentiment to the inside of the card, stamped on the banner included in the Center Picture Window die. Seriously, there are a lot of dies included in this set!! The sweet little bunny in the Smooth Sailing set is so sweet! I stamped the stars from this stamp set on the sailboat for a cute little pattern before I coloured in the images. The tiny star diecuts from the Center Window Picture die add just another layer of detail to the inside folded window.

Lastly, I wanted to make a more masculine card that I could give to my hubby for Father's Day coming up. I love the Lawn Fawn Really Rainbow Scallops Paper and used the Add On die to cut a stitched rectangle before stamping a sentiment from the Smooth Sailing stamp set and adding the anchor from the same set.

Inside, I used the Wavy Sayings stamp set on the banner again and created a cute little ocean scene with the smaller boat, lighthouse and clouds from Smooth Sailing, while adding a tiny diecut sunshine from the Center Picture Window die set. I used a stitched hill die from a set in my stash to create a wave effect at the bottom of the card. 

Supplies:

Lawn Fawn Center Picture Window Card Die and Add On

Lawn Fawn Say What Pets Stamp Set and Dies
