Homemade | 49 and Market - Country Heart Cafe collection

 

Hello, 49andMakert fans!

I am loving the beautiful, warm hues in the Country Heart Cafe collection; it has a cozy cottage vibe that transports you to that cozy corner, sitting with a book in hand and a warm drink. Today, I'm using it to document my love for baking.




I started by choosing the Bean There pattern paper from the 12x12 collection for my background. Next, I cut two pieces from the 12x12 Solid collection, layered them with a die-cut piece, and placed my photo on top to create a meaningful focal point.







To enhance the layout, I combined elements from both the laser cuts and die cuts to create a few small clusters that add depth and interest. I utilized the new Archiver's glue from 49 and Market to securely adhere these elements, which helped establish a beautiful flow throughout the design. For the title, I chose the 49 and Market / Sizzix "This or That" Alphabet and positioned it at the top of the page. Then, I added my journaling along with a few awesome Rub-Ons that I really love, "especially the staple ones," just to finish the page off nicely.




I'm really happy with how it turned out and hope it sparks some creativity for you to dive into the Country Heart Cafe collection! 

Thanks for stopping by!

Oh Yeah! | 49 and Market-Level Up Collection


Today, I'm excited to share my layout using the 49 and Market new Level Up collection. The stunning graphic artwork truly inspires creativity. This collection provides all the essential elements needed to document the enthusiastic gamer or athlete in your family, making it a valuable addition to your crafting supplies. 



When I saw the paper with the colorful keyboard design titled "Game Addict," I instantly knew it would be the perfect base for my layout. It captures the priceless moment when my son walked into the kitchen and spotted the box with his new PS5 sitting on the counter!






I added one of the beautiful frames from the Ephemera & Frames Set, embellished with silver foiling, to the larger photo and backed the smaller photo with the Solids 1 paper. Then, I layered in some cool Laser Cuts, Chipboard Sentiments, Ephemera pieces, and a few awesome Gamer Rub-On Transfers to really bring the page together.


I'm really happy with how it turned out and hope it sparks some creativity for you to dive into the Level Up collection!

Travel | 49 and Market | Travel Diaries Collection



 Hi friends! 

I used the beautiful Travel Diaries Collection to highlight the wonderful day we had on vacation in Atlantis. The Journal pattern paper from the 12x12 collection provides a great starting point for my layout. Next, I chose Sheet 1 from the 12x12 Solids Collection Pack, cut it to 5x6.5 inches, created a sunburst, distressed the edges, and placed it on the left side. To the right, I added one of the cut-apart cards from the All-Aboard pattern paper and then added my photos. 




The addition of the film strip, baggage ticket, and various charming vintage travel icons enhances the layout's overall appeal. A Rub-On title adds another delightful layer to this page.



On this page, I used the Tag It Framelits Dies and Clear Stamps from Sizzix/49 and Market to create a functional tag for my journaling. This approach not only enhances the visual appeal but also provides a dedicated space for my thoughts and reflections.







I'm really happy with how it turned out and hope it sparks some creativity for you to dive into the Travel Diaries collection!

It's Time to Celebrate | 49 and Market - Glimmer and Glee Collection



 If you're looking for a beautiful and playful collection to document a milestone celebration, the Glimmer and Glee collection is a must-have! With adorable hot air balloons and cute kites, all wrapped up in a soft color palette, it's perfect for creating sweet memories that you'll cherish forever.




I began with the Celebrate pattern paper and added horizontal strips at the top of the layout. Below that, I placed three photos, with one of the stunning frames from the collection over the middle picture. 








From the Ephemera & Frames pack, I selected a ledger scrap for my journaling. I added a chipboard title and started building lovely layers of laser-cut elements, along with one of the gorgeous sentiment Rub-Ons.

I'm really happy with how it turned out and hope it sparks some creativity for you to dive into the Glimmer and Glee collection!

Timeless | 49 and Market - Faded Memory Lane Collection

 

Hello 49 and Market fans!




The vintage essence of the Faded Memory Lane collection provides a wonderful backdrop for documenting my husband's grandparents' wedding photo from July 1926.




For my layout, I chose the Field Report patterned paper as the base and created a grid-style design with layers. I backed the photos with pieces from the 12x12 Solids collection, along with tags and a vintage filmstrip. Along the bottom of the page, I arranged a mix of Wildflowers laser-cut elements, including moths, coneflowers, and leafy foliage, paired with journaling to enhance the visual effect.




In the top right corner, I placed a cluster of Wildflowers Laser Cuts and used the Timeless Word card as the title. Below it, I added another sentiment to tie everything together. To finish the layout, I included some Rub-Ons for added detail.




I'm really happy with how it turned out and hope it sparks some creativity for you to dive into the Faded Memory Lane!
