"Todays Moments, Tomorrows Memories"Framed Scrapbook Layout

 Hello there, thanks for stopping by the blog today. 

Today I have something a little different to show you.

For this layout I have used this gorgeous photo of my Goddaughters children from when

they had a family photo shoot done & I decided I would pop it in a frame & give it

to her as a gift.  You can pick these frames up for under $20 from Kmart !!!

For this layout I wanted to achieve a nice earthy theme. 

I printed the photo out in black & white so it would match this theme nicely.
Perfect for a family photo shoot photo.

I just adore the way the photographer positioned the kids like this,

Such a fabulous idea & as soon as I saw it I just knew I had to scrap it !!

As well as this lovely grungy paper, some of my favourite burlap,

some little denim flowers & some string I have also added some

wonderful pieces of my favourite 2Crafty Chipboard as well.

I think what makes this look sooo effective is this cheapie frame I picked up

for under $20 from my local Kmart store !! These are such good value too.

I gave this to my Goddaughter for her birthday a few weeks ago

& she absolutely loved it. I think by adding the frame to my layout

 is a great way to create a lovely handmade gift that anyone would 

be proud to hang on their wall.

Well that is all from me today. 

I hope I have inspired you in some small way.

Until next time....

“A Christmas To Remember”Mixed Media Layout Design Team Project for 2Crafty Chipboard

Well hello there, thanks so much for stopping by.

I hope you had a wonderful Christmas with your family

& friends & that Santa was good to you.

No doubt you have taken lots & lots of photos over this
Christmas season so I have just one last Christmas layout
to help inspire you to get some of those photos scrapped !!!

2Crafty Chipboard Used….

Stars Border

Holly Vine Corners

Messy Frame 6” Set

A Christmas to Remember - title

filmstrips - Tiny

WARNING THIS LAYOUT IS SADLY NOT A KIT.
I will be back creating lots more kits mid January!!

This one is just one for my own album.

                            After firstly creating & stencilled background & adding lots of glitter

to it, although that is not easy to see in a photo, I then did some background

stamping, added lots of lovely layers
 & then set to work customising my chipboard pieces.

The chipboard "title" & the little "Stars"were just given
a couple of coats of red acrylic paint. Too easy.

I then added some "Glossy Accents" to make the stars really
shiney & finished them off by brushing  a little
white gesso over them.

Next up I used the middle sized frame from the 

"Messy Frame Set"

to frame my photos & help draw the eye.

I basecoated it in white acrylic paint, dried it off before 

wiping it over with a brown Distress Ink Pad & giving a tiny

 spray of water which makes the ink runny & patchy & also

waters the colour down too. Always a good shabby technique.

I did the same technique on the little

"Filmstrip" at the top of the page too.

Lastly I cut up one of the "Holly Vine Corners", to use at the right

side of my photo. I painted it in a lovely green watercolour paint

& then gave it a light spray of water to make the watercolour

paint a bit runny. This gives it a nice shabby vibe.

Well thats all I have for you today.

I do hope you like it.

Until next time...

“My Christmas Angel”A Mixed Media LayoutDesign Team Project for 2Crafty Chipboard

Hi there and hello, thanks for stopping by.

Today I have a mixed media Design Team project for
2Crafty Chipboard
using some of their wonderful chipboard pieces.
THIS ONE IS SADLY NOT A KIT
These pics were taken back in 2014 & are of my gorgeous little 
 doggy who sadly crossed over the rainbow bridge back last year.

I began by creating my background with stencilling, sprays and stamping
before commencing with all the layers and then the fun part,
 altering the chipboard !!

For the chipboard title, I simply painted it with red acrylic paint.
Too easy !!

 

The gorgeous little chipboard snowflakes I heat embossed
in gold embossing powder and then tucked them in under
the edges of my photos.

Lastly came the little chippie
"Brushstoke Christmas Tree"
which I sprayed in green and then finished it off
with lots of glitter to make it sparkle !!
I then tucked it in behind the left photo.

Well thats all I have for you today.
I hope you got a little inspiration from it.

Until next time...
