Fancy Pants Designs / Fall Fun

Hi friends! Today I am sharing a new layout that's all about Fall fun!  When my son was younger, fall was a time for Apple picking, hayrides, and going to the pumpkin patch. So I decided to document this lovely photo of my son enjoying himself on one of our many hayrides this day, knowing that at the end of the ride there will be free donuts!

I used a leaf cut file to cut about 8 of the maple leaves design from patterned papers in the 6x6 'Good Ol' Days' paper pad, then arranged them onto a 9x9 piece of white cardstock, before adhered to my base patterned papers. I also used another cut file for my title and added an offset to the words in my Silhouette, which allow me to add some stitching detail.       

Finish off with a few embellishments from the collection, around the photo. Hope this inspires you to go check out the 'Good Ol' Days' collection, you're going to love it!

Autumn Days-My Creative Scrapbook November Tutorial

Hello, My Creative Scrapbook fans! Today I'm sharing a layout featuring the Autumn Days exclusive cut file designed by Ashley Horton.          

  

 I start by cutting the beautiful wreath cut file from white cardstock.

⇩

I chose the 'Seasons of Change' patterned paper, the reverse side, to back the wreath cut file and also as my background. 

I then used a pencil to trace along the inside of the wreath and removed the inside portion only, using a craft knife or you can also use a small detail scissor.     

It took me a little while to choose the pattern paper I wanted to use to back the wreath open with, I didn't want something that was too busy or colorful, I wanted to keep the focus on the beautiful wreath design. I end up using the 'Fabulous Fall' paper and simply arrange it, to my liking.  

Next, I added some backstitching down the center of the leaves, before gluing everything in place.

I used stickers, chipboards, Bits and Pieces from the 'Autumn Splendor' collection to embellish the layout by creating a couple of clusters to the inside and the outside of the wreath. 

I finish the page by adding some white gesso with my finger around the outside of the wreath, just to soften it a bit.

I hope you like this page and it has inspired you to create your own!

Fancy Pants Designs-Friendsgiving

Hello Everyone! Today I have a new layout to share for Fancy Pants Designs!  I used the gorgeous 'Good Ol Days' collection to document our family Thanksgiving dinner tradition with my best friend and her family.  

This page features some of my favorite techniques that I love to use.... such as, cut files, fussy cutting, die-cuts and lots of layer embellishments. I love adding layers of embellishments into clusters to create height and dimension.

To give this layout a touch/feeling of Fall, I added a few of the DIY Jack-O-Lanterns pumpkins from the 'Howl' collection to my clusters. 

I hope my layout has inspired you to check out the 'Good Ol Days' collection and create something of your own.                        

Here's a few close-ups.....

My Creative Scrapbook-November Projects

Hi My Creative Scrapbook fans! 

Here's this months projects, using the November Main Kit!

A quick summary of the products found in this month's main kit.....patterned paper from Simple Stories 'Autumn Splendor' collection. The 12x12 combo cardstock stickers, Bits & Pieces Ephemera pack with beautiful Fall icons and phrases, the chipboard stickers, and the 12x12 banner cardstock stickers. Also included in the main kit, a pack of Creative Embellishments, as well as gold foam letter stickers from American Crafts.

 Here are my projects using the November Main Kit and a few close-ups...

Painted the Creative Embellishment triangles black, used one to frame my photo and backed with patterned paper.

The 'Fall Blessing' pattern paper were perfect to use as my background base.  Added some layers, by fussy cutting the washed out leaves from the 'Autumn Leaves' paper and adhered in place with foam tape.

        

One of the phrase die-cut found in the 'Autumn Splendor' Bits and Pieces, were perfect to use as a title for my page. 

Added a few more pieces of chipboard stickers and ephemera die-cuts around my page to finish off this layout.  
       

   

So Funny....

For the title of this page, I used a cut file and cut it from some white cardstock. I then decided to distress the edges with some paint, which allows it to blend in with the background paper and adhered with foam tape.  

I used the 'Harvest Memories' woodgrain paper as the background for this page and added some white gesso, just to soften it a bit. I also added some tearing, to the top left edge and added a strip of 'Autumn leaves' behind it. 

I chose to use one of the banner cardstock sticker and add my photo behind the frame cut out. I layered stickers, Die-Cuts, as well as a few fussy cut flowers around my photo, title and banner.

Autumn...

I started with a white cardstock background, added several torn paper strips along the top of the page and distress the edges a bit.

Create multiple distress layers, behind my photo using the beautiful 'Autumn Splendor' patterned papers. 

A few fussy cut leaves from the 'Autumn Leaves' patterned paper were added underneath my photo, as well as a chipboard sticker and some die-cuts.   

Mr. Wonderful...

Die-cuts and hand drawn circles were used to create this fun background. 

Layers of embellishments and fussy cutting was added around my photo.

Fancy Pants Designs / Exciting News-Trick or Treat

Hello friends! I have some exciting news to share with you today....I'm on the Fancy Pants Designs/ Foundations Decor design team! OMG....I still can't believe that I get to design for this amazing company!

The layout I am sharing today features the 'Howl' collection from Fancy Pants Designs/Foundations Decor. This is such a perfect collection to document your spooky/cute monster pictures and Halloween memories. I love the added touches of yellow and the light blue color, which is is not a typical Halloween color combo, but I absolutely love it. 

It was very hard trying to choose only a few embellishments for my layout.....the cute dogs, ghosts and pumpkin shapes in the Ephemera pack was sooooooo adorable, so I used as many as I can to create a couple of layer clusters. I also used foam tape adhesive behind the die-cut shapes to add extra dimension.

I selected the papers 'Wicked Cute' (both sides) and the reverse side of 'Scaredy Cat' for the bottom portion of my page and distressed the edges a bit for some added texture.

Here, you can see I added one of the Howl-mini flair to the top left corner of  my photo.

     

The Howl collection is definitely a must-have....perfect to document those spooky and fun Halloween memories.

       Thank you for stopping by!
