Hello | My Creative Scrapbook-May Tutorial

Hello My Creative Scrapbook fans!  Yvette here, and today I'm sharing a layout I create using this month's sketch designed by the talented Laura Whitaker. I love to use sketches as a starting point on most of my pages, it gives me the inspiration I need to start my layouts. 

         

Here's a look at the May sketch...

I start by gathering some of my supplies to create my base for my layout.  Next, using a 1 3/4 circle paper punch I created several circles, I then cut out a few thin strips of pattern paper which I use to attach my circles to.       

       

I adhere all of the circles to the thin strips of patterned paper using a staple-as shown below.

Once my background was finish, I started working on adding some layers of patterned paper behind my photo. I also added some foam tape between the layers to create lots of dimension

At this point, I started adding my embellishments using the sketch as my guide.

   
On the right side of the photo I created a cluster of embellishments by layering together some of the chipboard accents from the Spring Market collection, a couple of paper shapes flowers, as well as a few cut file butterflies which was added all along the right side of the photo and also along the top.     

I combined one of the chipboard phrases from the collection, with a cardstock sticker to create my title. I also added a chipboard tag underneath the title and another cut file butterfly. 

Included in this month's main kit was a beautiful strip of burlap, I decided to add it along the bottom of my page, I love the added interest and texture this create on my layout.  

I finished the layout off with a few enamel dots and added some of Maggie Holmes vintage buttons to the top of the paper flowers.

I hope you felt inspired today and if you're not a subscriber yet, give it a try. The kits are all so beautiful and you will not regret it!!!!

Happy Little Moments | My Creative Scrapbook

Hi My Scrapping Friends!

Today I'm back to share another layout with you using the beautiful May Main Kit from My Creative Scrapbook.  The beautiful florals and colors in the Spring Market collection were perfect to document these photos of Max having a great time playing in the dirt! 

I started with a few layers of patterned paper and then fussy cut the beautiful floral window box cluster. I added the window box cluster to the top of my page as well as a paper flower from Bazzill Basics, my title and few chipboard words.

A butterfly stencil was use to add a bit more interest and texture to the background paper.

I created a smaller cluster in the bottom left hand corner using a couple of clipboard stickers and a few fussy cut flowers. 

Added a piece of the burlap strip including in this month's main kit to right side of the page.

I finished the layout off with some black ink splatters, a few enamel dots and my journaling.

I hope you felt inspired today and if you're not a subscriber yet, give it a try. The kits are all so beautiful and you will not regret it!!!!

Happy Stuff | My Creative Scrapbook

Hi My Scrapping Friends! 

Today I'm here to share one of my layout created with the May main kit from My Creative Scrapbook, along with this month's free cut files!  This kit features the beautiful, Spring Market collection by Carta Bella, and I couldn't resist documenting a photo of me celebrating my birthday!

Here's this month's cut file...

I decided to use three of the potted plants on my page and then combining both patterned paper and vellum to back each of the cut files. I love how the vellum create a soft and dreamy look to my layout.  I adhered the cut files using foam tape to give it some dimension and then added a few stickers and a chipboard accent from the Spring Market collection under and to the top of the cut files.

I use a couple of die-cuts to create a few layers using the gorgeous Spring Market patterned paper as well as some solid cardstock.

I created a base with a die-cut and added the happiness blooms from within chipboard phrases on top.  

     

 Added my title to the top right hand corner of my photo, as well as a couple of stickers.

I hope you felt inspired today and if you're not a subscriber yet, give it a try. The kits are all so beautiful and you will not regret it!!!!
