A New Adventure Awaits

Hey there friends!

Today I am sharing another take on my recipe challenge this month at Bramble Fox.

I used Fancy Pants On Our Way collection along with a BF stencil, Paper Snips and perspextives for this fun travel page of Greg and I at Lookout Mountain:

Here's the challenge:

I added diecuts and patterned papers behind my photos and then added a Travel Clippie to the top of both of them:

I used Fox Cut #28 along with Oxide Inks to create my background. I also scattered a few Cool Stars and this is the other Travel Clippie:

I added some more stencil work here along with another Cool Star. The "totally awesome" is from Paper Snips #008:

I fussy cut the suitcase, bag and ticket. I added the diecut leaf from Pretty Little Studio, a few Carpe Diem sticker phrases, another Cool Star and the "explore'" and "ticket to adventure" are from the Paper Snips #008:

I fussy cut the compass from one of the papers, added a diecut heart from a HipKit Club kit and a diecut frame from Pretty Little Studios:

I used A New Adventure Awaits chipboard piece from Creative Embellishments for my title. I colored it with Oxide Inks. Love it! The "life is short.." piece is also from Paper Snips #008:

I hope you find some time to play along with us this month, I would love to see your take on the challenge!

Thanks for stopping by and have a great day!

My Happy Place

 Hello there!

Today I am sharing a layout I created using sketch #546 that Laura Rumble created for Sketches In Thyme. I used Paige Evans stash for this camping page:

I fussy cut the scalloped borders and stitched them on my background. I added tissue paper to my photos and placed them on the borders:

I fussy cut four trees and added one to the right of my photo and the other three to the left of my photos. I used a diecut for part of my title along with some PinkFresh alphas (My). I fussy cut the small mushrooms and flowers from one of the papers:

I created a banner, stitched it in place and then added a few fussy cut flowers:

I added a fussy cut sun with a chipboard heart in the middle along with some cloud stickers that i stitched on:

Here is the sketch:

Let's Go Camping!

Hey everyone!

I am sharing a layout I created for Creative Embellishments. January is here and so is the cold weather here in Wisconsin. It is about this time every year that I am missing summer and my camper. To be honest, I am not a fan of winter- I don't mind the snow, it's the cold that I don't like. Today I am sharing a layout with photos we took while hiking with friends at a new campground we stayed at this last summer. I used chipboard from the store along with Echo Park Let's Go Camping collection:

   

 I added a few cards that I cut from one of the patterned papers and my photos to my white cardstock background. Then I used brown ink and the Distressed Crackle Stamp and added some stamping around the page.I fussy cut the trees, moose and banner. I popped up the camper diecut on foam to add some dimension. I also added in a few tags. I used inks to color the Compass and Tree Ring:

   

 I added the Sign Post that I colored with inks to the left of my photos. I fussy cut the trees, tent and bear:

   

 I cut a few of the Tree Rings that I inked and placed one at the top, one on each of the sides and one at the bottom of my page:

   

 I hope I have inspired you in some way today. Thanks for stopping by and have a great day!

In The Garden

Hello!

Today I am sharing a summer layout with you that I created for Creative Embellishments. 

I used chipboard from the CE store along with Simple Stories Simple Vintage Farmhouse Garden collection for these photos of our garden last summer:

   

 I used 6 photos on this page. I used the In The Garden chipboard piece for my title:

   

 I added strips of patterned papers down the right side of my layout and then machine stitched using black thread. I added the word "plant" from the Garden Word Set in between the photos:

   

 I added some diecuts, fussy cut elements and stickers along with the word "bloom" from the Garden Word Set. I added that cute Garden Fun Figures as well. Isn't he cute?!

 

Thanks for stopping by today and have a great day!

Holiday Fun

 Hello fellow scrappers!

Today I am sharing my take on case file #402 at CSI. I used PinkFresh and Hip Kit Club papers for this page of friends and I celebrating Christmas last year:

I added watercolors to my white background along with the torn strips of pink patterned paper in the corners. I added some machine stitching. I added a few layers of patterned paper behind my photos. I fussy cut the deer, mouse and the word "holiday". The celebrate ribbon is from Basic Grey. I used the  Pinkfresh "fun" word to finish off my title. The "cheer" and white flowers are old rub-ons I found in my stash:

I also added some fussy cut stars. The "Christmas time" is a chipboard piece from MAMBI:

Isn't that mouse just the cutest?

I fussy cut the "so much fun" and the teacup:

I used my fringing scissors to add some texture to one of the papers under this photo:

I created a small winter scene by fussy cutting items from patterned papers. This is a great way to embellies when you don't have them and it's fairly inexpensive as well, lol!

I really enjoyed creating this fun holiday page and I love that I used my stash to do it!

Check out the case files this month, we would love to have you play along!

The Best Is Yet To Come...

Hey there Scrappy Friends! 

I hope you had a wonderful and safe time ringing in the new year! 

Today I am sharing a fun New Years Eve layout with you. I used Dear Lizzy stash along with some beautiful chipboard pieces from Creative Embellishments:

   

I added strips of patterned papers down the left side of my page and machine stitched. I added a strip of the black and white striped down the right side and machine stitched that as well. I popped my photos up on craft foam and inked 2 of the Nested Stars, backed them with patterned paper and added one to the side of each photo. I added gesso and Distress Oxide Ink to most of the words from the New Years Word Set and placed them above, between and under my photos:

   

 I tucked in a few Tim Holtz word phrase stickers:

   

 I added two of the Shine Flair in Silver, one here and the other to the upper right corner:

   

 

I used The Best Is Yet To Come chippy for my title. I added gesso and Oxide Inks to this piece too. I inked another of the Nested Stars and added that to my title:

   

This page came together so quickly for me plus I love how it came out! 

Thanks for stopping by and have a great day!
