My Creative Scrapbook-August projects





Here's this months projects, using the August main kit! 

A quick summary of the products found in this month's main kit.....patterned paper from Simple Stories 'Spring Farmhouse' collection as well as a few pieces from the 'Simple Vintage Traveler' collection. The 12x12 combo cardstock stickers, Bits and Pieces Ephemera pack, and the beautiful floral cardstock Bits and Pieces. Also included in the main kit, a pack of sequin, Sticko small wood grain alpha stickers, Jen Hadfield wood phase stickers and American Crafts Celebrate painted patterned chipboard thickers.

Here's my projects and a few close-ups...


On this page, I chose to start this layout off, by adding a bit of mix media background using Vicki Boutin's watercolor markers.  I then build some layers behind my photo with patterned paper, die cuts from the Bits & Pieces pack, a cut file and a few fussy cut pieces to build dimension. 





I created a cluster of embellishments in the top left corner using stickers and die cuts. I also added a banner of punch stars across the top of the page.   


Happy 57th....


For this layout, I added a few pieces of torn patterned papers at the bottom and top of the page. At the top of the page, I tucked a few die cut hearts in various sizes and pattern to create a bit more interest.



I matted the photo with a couple pieces of patterned paper and keep most of my embellishments to the bottom part of my photo.
   



Sweet....


I couldn't resist documenting these cute photos for my son goofing around, while eating some watermelon!

I love layering, so I combined patterned paper, fussy cutting, a few Bits & Pieces as well as some Die Cut stars, to create dimension and textured by simple grouping them into clusters.
