Frosted Memories | 49 and Market + Ranger Dye Ink | Timber & Tweed Collection

    


Hello 49 and Market Friends!

I had a great time using the new 49/Ranger ink pads to create a unique mixed-media background for my layout. After making the background, I cut it into a 10-inch square and framed it with Alpine Retreat patterned paper.





For the larger photo, I used the Fireplace paper as a backing and tucked two antique tickets behind it, which added a nice touch. The smallest photo was framed with one of the beautiful frames from the Ephemera & Frames pack and set in place.










To enhance the layout's depth and playful feel, I added layers of Rub-On Transfers, tags, a couple of woodgrain arrows, Laser Cut Floral pieces, and some of the cute animals from the Element Set. I'm really happy with how it turned out and hope it sparks some creativity for you to dive into the Timber & Tweed collection!

Love You | 49 and Market - The Looking Glass Collection



Hello everyone!

The pastel colors in 49 and Market The Looking Glass collection are so pretty and really capture that spring vibe! For my page title, I cut strips from some of the awesome solids in The Looking Glass Solids collection. I used the Sizzix/49 and Market This or That Thinlits Dies Alphabet and the Tag It Clear Stamps. This combo really takes the design up a notch and adds a nice touch to my project.



When it comes to creating layers, this is where the real fun begins! There are so many wonderful elements to incorporate, such as the cute ladybugs, vine frames, and the intricately cut wildflowers from the Laser Cut Elements/Wildflowers pieces. Don't forget to include the fabulous Blendable Rub-Ons, too. By applying these layering techniques, you'll bring your design to life, making it not only more visually engaging but also more dynamic and appealing overall.










I'm really happy with how it turned out and hope it sparks some creativity for you to dive into The Looking Glass collection.

Sparkle & Shine | 49 and Market - Plume & Petal Collection



 Hello 49 and Market fans!

I love a good grid design, so when I came across the journal paper "Radiant" in the collection, I knew it would be perfect for this layout. I cut the paper into sections and added hand-stitching to enhance the layout's texture and visual interest.




To make some sections of the journal more engaging, I also included Rub-On Transfers. The pieces from the Ephemera & Frames not only serve as excellent photo backgrounds but also work well as embellishments. For my photo background, I selected a card from the pack and paired it with the Joy pattern paper.


The beautiful elements from the Laser Cut Element Set, along with the charming Chipboard Sentiments title, truly make my photo stand out. Designing this layout feels like creating a blooming garden around the bottom of my photo, and I love watching it come to life.






I'm really pleased with how this turned out, and I hope it sparks some ideas for you to explore the beautiful Plume & Petal collection!

Perfect Together | 49 and Market - Plume & Petal Collection

 



Hi 49 and Market fans!

Today, I'd like to share a layout that highlights my wonderful day at the lake with my husband, using the Plume & Petal 12x12 solids pack. The vibrant colors and textures work together to enhance my photos beautifully. For this project, I cut Solid 1 into a 10-inch square and distressed the edges to create a rustic effect. I then mounted it on the solids bonus sheet to add depth and interest to the overall design. 




I also selected the Bliss pattern paper from the 12x12 collection, featuring a charming journal and ticket design, to create a 10-inch heart with hand-stitched edges, which I placed on the base paper for added visibility.




For my photos, I chose two frames from Vicki's Irresistible Die-Cut Frames and blended two shades of 49/Ranger Inks for a nice effect. I added drops of 49/Ranger Ink Tranquil Waters for a unique streaked look.

 



I finished the page with floral sprays, vintage frames, and a peacock feather from the Laser Cut Element Set, along with tags, tickets, and a bingo card from the Ephemera & Frames. To enhance the design, I used Irresistible Rub-Ons and used a Chipboard Sentiments for my title. I'm really pleased with the result and hope it inspires you to use the Plume & Petal collection.



I'm really pleased with how this turned out, and I hope it sparks some ideas for you to explore the beautiful Plume & Petal collection!

Adventure in the Woods | 49 and Market | Timber & Tweed Collection

 


Hello friends! Today, I'm pleased to share a layout featuring a photo of our wonderful dog, Handsome. He has a passion for exploring the backyard, and he particularly enjoys standing quietly, scanning the woods for any little critters to chase, even though he never quite manages to catch them! The Timber & Tweed collection from 49 and Market has a warm and cozy aesthetic and was a fantastic choice for capturing this charming moment.




To start the layout, I chose the 'Timber & Tweed' Mountain Trail paper as my background. It has a beautiful winter scene that provides the perfect background for my photo. Then, I incorporated a few pieces from the laser-cut Floral Set, positioning my photo on the right side of the lovely log cabin. I tucked one of the frames from the Ephemera & Frame set beneath the photo to add a layered effect.





For the title, I selected the chipboard sentiment "Adventure in the Woods" and placed it inside the frame to create a focal point. I also distributed additional chipboard sentiments around the page; one sits just below the title, while others are placed on the log cabin die-cut for added interest.




To further enhance the layout, I created a cluster of embellishments from the Laser Cut Floral set, including pinecones, acorns, lanterns, and leaves. This arrangement beautifully echoes the essence of the great outdoors.





Additionally, I couldn't resist incorporating some eye-catching rub-on from the Timber & Tweed Rub-On Transfer Set, including a flower cluster, a rusted lantern on a pole, and a fabric strip with a faded look. These elements added texture and visual appeal to the page. As a final touch, I used splatters of Cold Brew and Sangria Ranger dye ink paint to bring everything together and complete the layout.


I'm really pleased with how this turned out, and I hope it sparks some ideas for you to explore the beautiful Timber & Tweed collection!
