More moodboard love

Welcome to another fabulous weekend... whether it be summer or winter in your area I hope you are embracing each and every moment and making the most of doing the things you love with your nearest and dearest. Remember to capture all those memories so you can create a living memory from them... it is such a beautiful thing to reflect back on. My layout today is called Smile Birthday Girl. It's a pic of my beautiful daughter on one of her many birthdays, it was the happiness that was captured with her dad in the photo that brings me such joy.

I chose some awesome Dina Wakley stamps and a crown stamp from my ever growing stamp stash and stamped in three places on my 12x12 Studio Calico cardstock - Adirondack Ink is a great ink to use when stamping as it is a permanent ink.

I then gathered a few pre- printed tags and a large manilla tag and layered them on the layout with some muslin & filigree die cuts.

To give the layout dimension I added dimensional tape to various pieces when layering, such as the smile title. After it was coloured with the Artline marker I added the tape and then adhered it to the layout. I also added the foam tape to the photo.

Next came the paper flowers and enamel dots. As well as using the dots on the layout I also used them in the centers of the flowers. I also embellished the layout with some extra words in gold foil.

To complete the layout I went around the photo with a black Artline pen and punched the top left corner with a binder punch.  Don't forget there is still lots of time to create using  the moodboard as your inspiration & once uploaded to the Facebook page you have a chance to win a $30 store voucher. Enjoy your weekend where ever you may be and don't forget to get messy and create some fabulous memories.

Pretty - With Karyn Schultz!

Hi Scrapping Clearly Lovelies,

It's Karyn here, and today I have a scrapbook page to share with you made using lots of goodies from the Heidi Swapp Emerson Lane collection and Art Anthology paints - all available from the Scrapping Clearly Store.

 

My background is  white cardstock and I've used a palatte knife to swipe over some Art Anthology paint in Sorbet - Cameo, Gemstones - Blue Topaz and Sorbet - Vegas Gold.

  

Next I added some splatters of Heidi Swapp Colorshine in navy, blush and gold. 

Once this was thoroughly dry (overnight is best) I added a strip of Emerson Lane washi along the bottom of the page. Next I added some gold photo corners to my photo and matted it on a white paper doilie and an envelope from the Heidi Swapp Emerson Lane collection. I also added some stickers and a Heidi Swapp acetate word.   

 

I added more stickers and some gold thread in the top right corner and around the page.  

The gold word stickers my favourite - so versatile!  

Thanks so much for stopping by

'Whoa!'

Amy here with you today, sharing a fun boyish page, using awesome products from the store. I just had to scrap this photo, taken of my youngest, Sam.

At the time of the photo, he was tired after an eventful but stressful morning swimming competition. Our Samuel is known for getting into these crazy but quirky moods when he is super tired. We are all only human - right?!

My background paper is from the 'Boys Fort' range from a Pink Fresh Studio collection.

For the background, I roughly swiped some white gesso on to break up the grey (so much fun!). The gesso also acts as a barrier for the wet media I was to use next - from the store: Dina Wakely Media - Heavy Acrylic in Cheddar and Lemon; Colour Blast Colour Spray in Rainforest.

I have also sprayed some gauze with the luscious Rainforest spray - to add to the aquatic theme. 

Then, as pictured here, from the store, I added the following products before I mounted my photo: enamel dots from My Minds Eye; paper tissue from Dina Wakley Media, a 'date insert' from We R Memory Keepers 'Typecast'; quotes from Tim Holtz Small Talk; and wood veneer embellishment from Studio Calico Wanderlust.

 The chipboard title 'Whoa' and film strip were from my stash.

I have used a handmade heart and coloured wire overlapping it, from Charms Creations - the wire is from D-lish Scraps. 

I am pleased with how this page came together - and really enjoyed scrapping this one!

Thank you for popping by!

See you next month.

Live your Life - with Emma

Welcome to Tuesday everyone!! 

Today I’m sharing a layout with you that is loosely based on the mood board for this month. 

The image I found for this page I feel is almost a portrait of me, With our cat Augustus. 

And I’ve used plenty of ScrappingClearly products. 

I started with applying clear Gesso over the base sheet and then once dry started to apply my stamps.

I started with a Lavinia stamp and used the small stones along the base of where I was going to apply the flowers.

Then wanting to use paper flowers and fabric flowers I stamped on smooth white card some flowers off the Jane Davenport building a Bouquet stamp set. I then painted them with a couple of Distress Oxides. I Chose to use Tattered Rose and Antique linen, to match the mood board a little.

Then I added with a paint brush some Lindy's sprays to drip down the page. I chose Moon Shadow Bucket o Blood and Magnolia Magenta.

Once dry I started to layer my Inkadinkado cling stamps, I used the fossil leaves.

I used a little of Art alchemy wax in Rose Gold on my finger and rubbed over the texture paste I had put down earlier.

Once all the flowers and image were adhered down I added some glass pebbles and Tim Holtz small talk stickers to relate to me and life. finally I flicked a little Liquidex Titanium White over the page.

That's all from me today. I hope you enjoyed this page I created for you.

I hope you get a chance to play along too.

I'll catch you all next week.

Em xx
