My Creative Scrapbook | Grow Through Life | April Tutorial

Hi Scrapping Friends!

Today I'm going to share with you how quickly and easily this layout came together using the April Main Kit!  

I started with a 12x12 black cardstock for my base.

      

       I was inspired by the cute cameras on the Little By Little collection by Shimelle and it teamed up perfectly with the small heart design pattern paper from the Oh My Heart collection by Pink Paislee.  

For my first layer I cut the 12x12 patterned paper on a diagonal, which created a triangle and then adhered to my cardstock.

   For my second layer I added a smallest triangle to the top and off the sides, added another to the lower right corner and then machine stitched around the perimeter.

  

From this point on I started adding my embellishments...I adhered my photo with some foam tape underneath to give it some extra dimension.

I created a small cluster on the right side of my photo using a couple pieces of chipboard from the Lovely Day collection, along with a tag and the die cut word joy from the Creative Embellishments set.  

  

   

  To the top of my photo I added another one of the die cut word dream which also came in the  Creative Embellishments set and to the bottom left corner of my photo I created another small cluster using a couple pieces of chipboards.            

   I used the grow through life phase with a flower from the Pink Paislee-Oh My Heart ephemera pack to create my title and I finished my layout off by adding a few white enamel dots!  

Thanks for stopping by :) xoxo Yvette

   I hope I inspired you to create something beautiful....using the April main kit from My Creative Scrapbook! 

My Creative Scrapbook | You're So Cool I'm Not Even Mad!

Hi My Scrapping Friends!

Today I'm back with you to share my first layout for My Creative Scrapbook using the gorgeous April main kit. 

I love going through older photos of my son. In these photos, I came back into the kitchen to find Max and the floor covered with powdered sugar :)))) I grab the camera, and took a few pictures before cleaning up!  

      

I started my layout off  by using one of the patterned paper from Pink Paislee-Oh My Heart collection (paper18) for my background. Next I added the orange pattern paper (paper05), which I cut into a diamond shape and adhered with machine stitching. 

   

I matted my photos on white cardstock and added foam tape underneath to give it some extra dimension.  To the bottom photo I added a cascading of fussy cut flowers using the Oh My Heart (paper06) and also added one of the flower from the ephemera pack to finish off this cluster.

         

Here you can see I continue to add a few more fussy cut flowers to the top and right side of my photos and tucked that adorable die cut piece from the ephemera set underneath the left side of my top photo. I really love all the beautiful bit and pieces that came in the Oh My Heart ephemera pack; great for adding layers to your projects.

             

How cute is this clipboard from the Dear Lizzy-Lovely Day collection, I couldn't resist using it as my title.

         I hope I inspired you to create something beautiful ....

Serious Gamer | My Creative Scrapbook | March Main Kit

Hi My Scrapping Friends!

Today I'm back with you to share another layout I created using the March Main Kit from My Creative Scrapbook!  This month's main kit is packed with lots of Pebbles-Simple Life Collection by Jen Hadfield.

For this page I challenge myself to use this month's kit to create a layout that features my son playing x-box in his game room! I started by cutting out several circles in a few different sizes, and added machine stitching around the edges. 

      

I combined a few strips of patterned papers with the foil phrase stickers behind the circles and machine stitched through them for some added texture. 

     

Here are a few close-ups....

I used some of the beautiful ephemera pieces, along with a few of the accent stickers from the Simple Life collections to layer underneath and around my photos.

    

I added a small cluster of embellishments to the bottom circle with this cute bird house from the ephemera pack and tucked a lemon slice underneath for a bit of color!  I love how I made this collection work to created this boy's page....:)))

I used the Pink Paislee Memorandum stickers to create my title and to add a little more detail to my  page I used Jim Holtz splatter stencil, with some brown distress ink in a few places.

I hope I inspired you to create something beautiful....

My Creative Scrapbook | Happy New Year | February Main Kit

Hi My Scrapping Friends!

I'm stopping in today, to share another layout for My Creative Scrapbook using the February Main Kit.

I started my page off  by cutting several circles out of the gorgeous American Crafts- Hazelwood collection, I lay the circle onto a 12x12 white cardstock and machine stitched down through the middle of the circles!

     

Here are some close-ups...

    

   I used a few of the wood veneers from Studio Calico in three little custers to frame my photos, these photos document the amazing time Max and Titan had ringing the New Year! 

      

I added some stickers and chipboard from Simple Stories-Posh collection around the photos and for my title I used the Dear Lizzy thickers, which add that festive look to my page!   

I finished the layout off with a few stamp circles and my journaling!

 I hope I inspired you to create something beautiful ....
