FINAL DT REVEAL FOR THE MONTH AT SCRAPBOOKIT

Hi there again - this is my final reveal for this month at Scrapbookit.  As you will have noticed I have loved the collection by Kaisercraft.  This layout was created with the moodboard using the first square "who are you".

As this photo was taken back in the 1970's I thought the paisly paper was right for this era.  I did white wash it to blend it into the background a little so that my photo and embellishments would stand out.  As the paper was fairly busy, I decided to keep the rest of the layout simple but effective.  Here are some close ups:

It has been great creating these layouts this month, I hope that you have enjoyed seeing my layouts, and dont forget to have a go at this months awesome moodboard. You can find the link here

Happy scrapping til next time :)

DT REVEAL FOR D-LISH

Hi there everyone - my day for a reveal at D-lish Scraps - sorry it is late but we have been having internet problems.  Back up and running now so I can show you my layout based on this months moodboard. I was inspired by the photo of the ocean and the colours.

I have used Ombre Dreams Paper by Blue Fern Studio.  I covered the entire 12x12 with clear gesso to allow the paints to sit nicely on the paper and not soak in.  I have used a Tim Holtz Stencil with Shimmerz Texturez paste "Patina".   

I have then applied stamps from Ranger and Kaisercraft using a brown ink.  I have used Inklingz Water colour "Freshly minted" on the background together with splatters of the Shimmerz Texture Paste

I will list all the D-lish products at the bottom of the blog with links to the store.

Here are some close ups:

3RD DT REVEAL AT SCRAPBOOKIT

Hi I am back again with another layout created for Scrapbookit from the awesome Kaisercraft Besty's Couture collection.  I have used embellishments from the Collectables collection and kaisercraft flowers.

This photo was taken when a couple of friends and myself went on a road trip to the south of Tasmania - hence the inspiration of the road in this months moodboard challenge.

I created the background with a stencil and texture paste.  I then used cut up pieces from the paper collection to form the area of the layout and then applied gesso to the entire layout, wiping the gesso off before it dried in alot of the areas.  I randomly stamped the layout and then built up the layers from there.

Here are some close ups:

I hope that you are enjoying what I am creating with this wonderful collection as much as I am, and I will be back with my last layout tomorrow.  In the meantime dont forget to have a go at this months moodboard challenge - found here 

Til then, Happy Scrapping.

Scrapbookit DT Reveal # 2

Hi there, I am back for a second layout for Scrapbookit - I have chosen to do a heritage layout of my great great Grandmother.    I have taken the "who are you" from the mood board. I believe that we all "import" styles, emotions, choices based on our family history.  Here is my layout

I have again used the Kaisercraft Betsy's Couture Collection, and in this layout I have fussy cut most of the embellishments.

Here are some close ups:

the items that did not come with the Betsy's Couture Collection can be found in the Scrapbookit store found here

Thanks for stopping by and I look forward to being back tomorrow with another layout from this awesome collection.

Scrapbookit DT Reveal # 1 for February

This month I received the Kaisercraft Betsy's Couture Collection from Scrapbookit and I must say this is extemely versitile.  I loved it.   The first layout I have to show you is a photo of my brother and I taken way back when!!!!! I used the word "dream" and the colour of the bottom corner of this months moodboard as my inspiration.

The background stencil is from Tim Holtz and I used texture paste and gold gelato. I chose to leave the chipboard natural to blend with the colours.

Here are some close ups:

Thanks for stopping by and I shall return tomorrow with another heritage layout that I have done.  In the meantime, dont forget we have awesome mood board this month over at Scrapbookit:

Until tomorrow, happy scrapping!
